Expert advisory services for manufacturers navigating digital transformation — from IT infrastructure design to Industry 4.0 strategy and hands-on engineer training.
Our consultants have hands-on experience in manufacturing IT — not just theory. They've designed networks, implemented MES, and run OT security assessments in real factories.
Network architecture, server sizing, data center design, and disaster recovery planning for manufacturing facilities.
Strategic assessment of your current digital maturity and a prioritized roadmap to smart manufacturing — grounded in ROI, not buzzwords.
Security assessment and hardening for operational technology environments — PLCs, SCADA, DCS, and OT networks.
Architecture design and technical delivery for connecting shop floor MES systems to enterprise ERP — eliminating manual data entry and bridging OT/IT data gaps.
Help you define what data to collect, where to store it, and how to turn it into actionable insights for production, quality, and maintenance teams.
End-to-end project management for technology deployment projects — managing vendors, timelines, testing, and change management with your team.
A structured approach that moves from understanding your situation to delivering measurable outcomes — without unnecessary overhead.
Site visit, stakeholder interviews, current-state assessment. Output: findings report with quick wins and gaps.
Architecture design, technology selection, business case, and detailed project plan for leadership approval.
Hands-on implementation with our engineering team. Weekly progress reporting. Full documentation on completion.
Training, knowledge transfer, and optional managed service retainer. Your team owns it — we support you.
Practical, hands-on training delivered by engineers who work in the field — not slides-only instructors. Available on-site at your facility or at our training center.
For IT engineers new to OT environments — covering ICS network architecture, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and common fault diagnosis.
Practical introduction to MES concepts, configuration, and operation for IT teams supporting a manufacturing execution system.
For OT engineers and IT security teams responsible for protecting industrial control systems from cyber threats.
Executive-level workshop for plant managers, IT directors, and operations leaders on digital transformation strategy and ROI.
A Tier-1 electronics contract manufacturer needed to consolidate IT across two facilities and prepare the OT network for MES deployment. Code Exchange conducted a 3-week assessment, designed a new network architecture with proper OT/IT separation, and managed implementation over 10 weeks.
A regional beverage manufacturer deployed CX-MES across 3 production lines and wanted their own IT team to manage it independently. Code Exchange delivered a 5-day intensive hands-on training program alongside go-live support, resulting in full team self-sufficiency within 30 days.
