"Prior methods of measurement were outdated, and we needed a solution we could build and scale quickly. Selecting Ekhosoft was simple – its customer-first, customized approach was clear from day one,” said Olivier Vidberg, Digital and Manufacturing Excellence Manager, Specialty Polymers at Syensqo. “The ability to optimize OEE will improve our output as well as reduce time from innovation to production internally and for our customers. It will also allow our business to grow without increasing carbon emissions, which is key to achieving our ambitious carbon neutrality goals.”

Ekhosoft’s OEE performance management software harnesses a global industrial data lake to collect real-time operational data and presents that information directly to plant operators in a timely fashion, enabling quick and informed decision making. Its granularity on OEE causes, cycle times, and more enables in-depth analysis for batch operations and raises real-time awareness of downtime and quality losses, ultimately allowing corrective actions to be completed as soon as possible. 

“Syensqo’s need for performance management that can get online and scale quickly makes Ekhosoft a natural partner. We will be up and running in under a year and are looking forward to working hand-in-hand with the Syensqo team to boost efficiencies and reduce its carbon output,” said Patrick Ramsey, Founder of Ekhosoft. “We’re proud to partner with a visionary company that seeks to reduce the world’s dependence on fossil fuels.”

Syensqo’s specialty polymer unit serves a wide range of industries from electrical mobility to implantable spinal devices with its portfolio of more than 1,500 different formulations; the world’s broadest for specialty polymers.
