Solvei8 Factory OS

Solvei8 sells Factory OS, a real-time control layer for apparel factories covering planning, production tracking, quality and maintenance across cutting, embellishment, embroidery, sewing and washing. The company states that the platform is live in 145 factories across 8 countries including Bangladesh, Vietnam and Indonesia. Its contact line is an Indian number; founding year is not stated on the site.

The platform is modular: Plani8 handles planning and capacity, Tracki8 production tracking and quality, Maintaini8 machine downtime, MTBF and MTTR, and Skilli8 operator output. Pre-production gates are enforced by the system, material readiness is pulled from ERP or WMS, and WIP is reconciled by size and colorway. Named customers include Youngone, MAS, Ananta and Viyellatex.

• Plani8 planning: capacity planning with auto-loading agent in beta and machine forecasting.
• Tracki8 tracking: production tracking and quality across cutting to washing.
• Maintaini8: machine downtime, MTBF and MTTR with automatic escalation of machine issues.
• Skilli8: operator output tracking.
• WIP reconciliation: by size and colorway across nine stages.
• Integration and security: SAP and Oracle connectors, REST API, role-based access and encrypted data in transit.

Garment exporters in Vietnam can track WIP by size and colorway from cutting to washing to reduce late shipments. Factories with multiple sewing lines can use the quality and rework data in Tracki8 to find defect-prone styles and operations.

Enforced pre-production gates reduce lines starting without material or approvals. Plans recalibrate from live floor actuals instead of static schedules. In an interview, a company VP reported rework drops of 25 to 30% in some plants and go-live in weeks (vendor-reported). Connectors for SAP and Oracle and a REST API limit integration effort.

Apparel makers in Asia seek real-time control because traditional MES from automotive and electronics fit poorly with high style and order volatility. Vietnam is a major garment exporter whose factories need per-size WIP visibility and tighter quality control to meet buyer lead times.

Headquarters and founding year are not stated on the site; country IN is inferred from the Indian contact number. Site lists customers Youngone, Ananta, Arvind, Concord, Global Indo, PT Sai Apparel, MAS, Viyellatex and Premier Knits.
