Plant floor

  • One shared data layer for the plant

    Your machines, plant-floor control systems (SCADA), and connected devices (IIoT) hold data your business systems and AI tools can’t reach.

    BPL brings that data into one shared data layer your business systems and AI tools can reach. The layer is a Unified Namespace, built on Ignition, MQTT, and MTConnect.

  • Digital twins & machine simulation

    You can’t test changes to your control logic (the machine’s programming) or your process without risking production.

    BPL builds a digital twin, a simulator of your machine or line, so changes are tested before reaching the floor.

  • Plant floor to head office

    Your plant-floor systems and head-office reports are disconnected.

    BPL connects your plant floor (OT) to head office (IT). Our team has delivered this work in food, beverage, and grain handling.

Field & fleet

  • Field ticketing app

    Your field work is logged on paper tickets.

    BPL delivers a web app for logging and tracking field work. One client already uses it.

  • Equipment rental system

    Your rental business tracks its fleet, customers, and jobs in separate systems.

    BPL has built one system for all three.

  • Field ticketing to accounting

    Your field tickets, financial reconciliation, and accounting live in separate systems.

    BPL links all three, so a finished ticket reaches the books without re-keying.

Procurement, telecom, and public safety

  • Procurement & supplier matching

    Your procurement software doesn’t fit how your business buys.

    BPL builds procurement and supplier-matching software around your products, suppliers, and rules. Its AI retrieves answers from your records.

  • Telecom & public safety systems

    Your carrier-grade voice, wireless, or emergency-alert systems must not go down.

    BPL designs, secures, and operates mobile-network cores (LTE), E9-1-1 (emergency calling) portals, and SMS emergency-alert systems. Our team has built and run carrier networks for over a decade.
