Our recent transformations

Tailored systems, in service in demanding trades. From the engineering office to the plant, here is what we transform in practice.

Technical engineering office in a plant
Engineering office

From paper to a field tool

The expert records findings once, on site. The report and the 2D/3D models come out ready.

See the case study
Context

A mechanical engineering office producing inspection reports and drawings for plant projects.

The challenge

Findings taken on paper on site were re-keyed at the office to produce reports and drawings. Double work, delays, errors.

Our solution

A tailored tool used during the inspection: a single entry on site, and the report and models generate themselves.

Outcome

No more double entry. The deliverable leaves the site ready to send.

Plant · Audit

The audit that shows where the plant loses time

We follow the manual tasks on a line and map what can be automated.

See the case study
Context

A plant where data entry and follow-up tasks pile up around production.

The challenge

Nobody knew exactly where the time went, nor which tasks to automate first.

Our solution

A field audit: following the manual tasks on a line, from reading to re-keying, and mapping the automation potential.

Outcome

A prioritised roadmap of AI projects, from the most profitable to the simplest.

Plant · AI

Local AI that makes your data speak

Reports, readings and histories scattered around, linked into one system that alerts and suggests.

See the case study
Context

A plant with data everywhere: reports, readings, histories, scattered across files and tools.

The challenge

That data lay dormant. Finding a piece of information took time, and nothing raised an alert when things drifted.

Our solution

A local AI system that links these sources, flags deviations and suggests actions, without sending data to the cloud.

Outcome

Teams decide on up-to-date data, on site.

Your data and your existing tools

It all runs on your own infrastructure, on site or on your private network. Or in an environment approved by your IT department. Off public cloud.

Our approach

How we work, step by step.

A single point of contact, from the first conversation to long-term follow-up. Each step carries over the context of the previous one.

01

First conversation

30 minutes, no commitment, remote or on-site. We listen to your trade and tell you frankly whether AI is worth it for you.

02

Framing

A precise scope: the data involved, what must be produced, quantified objectives. Validated with you before we start.

03

Direction

The step that fits your situation: an opportunity audit to frame your usage, or the design of a custom system.

04

Specifications

The reference document, in black and white: detailed scope, specifications and success criteria. What we build, validated before the first line of code.

05

Build

Domain experts and developers mobilised for your project. The design advances in iterations, with regular check-ins to validate each step.

06

Go-live

Tested on your real data, with your teams, until it runs in your day-to-day. GDPR-compliant; approach aligned with the principles of ISO/IEC 42001 (not certified).

07

Support & follow-up

Maintenance and improvements as your needs evolve. A single point of contact stays available, and the tools built are yours to keep.

Software by Assets 4.0

Integrity Loop

Your sites receive thousands of inspection reports. They pile up in the CMMS and in Excel files, without becoming data you can steer with.

The asset integrity management platform centralises them. It rebuilds the history of every piece of equipment, so you can track the condition of your asset base over time.

Frequently asked questions

What AI can do for your company.

The questions our clients ask before getting started, answered directly.

What exactly does Assets 4.0 do?

Assets 4.0 designs custom AI systems for industry, connected to your existing tools and built to go further. Two missions: designing these systems (AI agents, automations, business applications) and auditing the compliance of your AI usage (AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001, GDPR). Assets 4.0 also publishes Integrity Loop, an AI-powered asset integrity management software.

How much does AI support with Assets 4.0 cost?

The cost depends on scope. The AI opportunity audit is a short, framed package. A custom system is a framed package after the audit. It depends on the connections and the level of automation expected. You receive a precise quote within 48 hours. The ROI calculator on the site gives a first order of magnitude of the expected gains.

How long before I see a first result?

We reply within 48 business hours and the audit is run quickly. The first deliverables arrive with the very first batch of work: an actionable summary, an operational assistant or a first tracking dashboard. Deployment then happens in stages, without interrupting your operations.

How does an AI project work, step by step?

In three stages. Framing that starts from your objectives and your real data. Then the design of the custom system. Finally delivery connected to your tools, tested on your concrete cases. You remain the owner of the tools developed.

What is the difference between Assets 4.0 and a typical AI agency?

Assets 4.0 develops custom systems connected to your existing software: CMMS, quality tools, ERP, spreadsheets. They go further than surface automation. It connects to your existing software and respects your OT/IT separation. The tools delivered are yours, and the skills stay within your team.

Can AI work with our existing tools, such as a CMMS or spreadsheets?

Yes, that is the basic principle. The systems designed by Assets 4.0 read from and feed your current tools, instead of replacing them. PDF reports, CMMS exports, spreadsheets, mailboxes: the data you already produce becomes usable, without changing your working habits.

Where does our data go, and who can access it?

We work in compliance with GDPR; our practices can be aligned with the principles of ISO/IEC 42001 (no certification claimed). Data stays in your tools and on your systems, and access is defined with you at the start of the engagement.

How do you measure results?

Every engagement starts with quantified objectives, time saved, costs avoided, performance, and ends with their measurement.

What kind of companies do you work with?

All sizes, from the sole trader to the large group. We adapt our support to your structure, your trade and your objectives. Every activity has its tasks to lighten and its decisions to back with reliable data.
