Protean Solutions LLC Information

"Protean" refers to someone who is versatile, adaptable, and flexible with the ability to do many different things well. Drawing from a broad background of capabilities and a carefully curated network of partners, our goal is to provide manufacturers with solutions to any mix of business challenges. Here are some of the things we can help with: • Avoid paralysis by (over)analysis – quickly understand what technologies will have the maximum impacts on your business and what your specific next steps should be. • Connect to your machines and realize all the important stuff they’ve been trying to tell you all along. • Demystify this “Industry 4.0 thing", learn how it can enable your business, and see what your journey can look like (spoiler alert, you will be surprised). • Expose the data that hides out in your “hidden factory” and get it into your business systems. • Get your stubborn software platforms on speaking terms with one another other. • Enable your test engineering team to crank out test stands at the same rate you are cranking out new products. • Learn the difference between your capabilities and your products – then use those capabilities to access new markets. • Figuring out why your customers do business with you – then communicating it effectively. • Stop “throwing it at the wall and seeing what sticks” and start getting the right message in front of the right people. • Turn down the “infomercial” volume and find the technologies you should be investing in. • Remove the obstacles that prevent a smooth transition from design to manufacturing. ...and this list will continue to grow as we encounter new challenges, so keep checking back!
