ConstraintIQ™ is an AI manufacturing diagnostic for plants under $50M. In under 30 minutes, identify your true constraint, quantify the profit you're leaking, and walk away with a 90-day action plan.
The Problem
Most manufacturing leaders react to whatever's loudest this week. The actual constraint stays hidden — and keeps eating margin.
“We need more people.”
Really: poor scheduling.
“We need another machine.”
Really: low OEE.
“We need more inventory.”
Really: bad accuracy.
“We need a bigger building.”
Really: WIP pileup.
How it works
15–20 minutes. 30+ targeted questions across 8 operational categories.
We pinpoint the primary bottleneck plus a secondary constraint with a confidence score.
See annual $ opportunity from overtime, scrap, throughput, and inventory drag.
Score your plant Level 1 (Reactive) → Level 5 (High Performance).
Stabilize → Align → Optimize. Concrete actions, owners, and timing.

What we assess
What leaders say
"We thought we needed a second CNC cell. ConstraintIQ™ showed our real bottleneck was scheduling. Six weeks later we shipped 22% more parts on the same equipment."
Dana R.
VP Operations · Precision metal fabricator, $18M
"The Profit Leakage number was the wake-up call our leadership team needed. It put a dollar figure on what we'd been arguing about for two years."
Marcus T.
President · Plastics molder, $32M
"Thirty minutes in, I had a clearer view of our plant than three years of monthly ops reviews gave me. The 90-day plan was already actionable."
Elena S.
COO · Industrial equipment, $44M
