We keep Availability, Performance and Quality as you know them, then give every lost minute an owner.
A real 63 you can raise beats an 80 you can't.
One anonymised production line, one week in 2026: 3,334 stops and 38.6 hours lost. Engineers have two reactions to a first week of data. Both are useful.
One recurring fault at that station accounted for 18 stops and 2.6 hours. The engineers were right. They had never had the number, and the number put it first on the list.
Together they cost 38% of everything the line lost, more than every mechanical fault combined. Nobody logs a 17-second stop. One sensor logs all of them.
No reason code had ever captured it, because it isn't a breakdown. It is paid time with no owner, until the Owner column gave it one: planning.
Augos platform, Downtime Report · one anonymised production line · one week in 2026 · site, products and people removed
The Owner column attributes each lost minute to the function that can recover it, so the grey areas get a name.
The sensor counts the line. The operator records the reason on a simple drill-down, including the ones no sensor can see: a forklift, a pallet shortage, a shared compressor.
Augos Assist splits each unplanned stop into operator evaluation and resolution, technician response time, and active and inactive wrench time. It makes accountability clear, closes the response gap, removes friction between operator and technician, and shortens the time to evaluate and respond. Without Assist, an unplanned stop is one number, still analysed by event, operator and product.
Same machine, same product, different crews. Make your best crew's time everyone's target before you ask for capital.
Three templates: your products and rated speeds, your stoppage reasons, your operators. Photos of the line are enough for a remote assessment.
You provide a power point at the line. Augos supplies the SIM, so there is no network project. Your own people mount and connect the terminal with our guidance, and the sensor goes on the bottleneck.
Operators practise logging stops, managers learn the reports, and most are independent after one or two shifts. Four weekly one-hour data reviews follow, and your leadership is trained on the platform.
Products, reasons and firmware all arrive over the air. Support is remote and continuous.
One offer covers every line. The monthly fee includes every capability except the metrics that need Augos Assist, an optional extra.
R19,500 once per line for deployment, ex VAT.
Several lines? The price per line falls. We agree it with you in conversation.

Travel and subsistence for on-site training are not included.

The maths is the same. Availability, Performance and Quality are kept exactly as you know them. What Augos adds is an owner on every lost minute and a breakdown of every stop into its stages, which is the part a standard OEE report skips.
Typically within seven days of go-ahead. You need a power point at the line. Augos supplies the SIM, so there is no network or IT project. Because the rules arrive over the air, installation starts before your products, stoppage reasons and operators are finalised.
No, by design. One pulse sensor counts the line and the Augos Operator Terminal does the rest on board, so there are no PLC tags, no IT project and no integrator. Your data exports as CSV, Excel or the signed AI Bridge payload whenever you want it elsewhere.
The sensor sees that the line stopped. The operator records why, on a simple drill-down at the terminal, including the reasons no sensor could detect: waiting for a forklift, a pallet shortage, a shared compressor down.
Operators are judged on the median, so one bad day defines nobody, and against your own line's best shift rather than a textbook figure. Peer data is masked. Measure people clumsily and they work around it; this is built to be fair so they don't.
R19,500 once per line for deployment, plus R4,950 per line per month, ex VAT. There are no tiers. The monthly fee includes every capability except the metrics that need Augos Assist, an optional extra at R250 per technician per month or R1,250 per month for the whole site. Augos owns the hardware. The first 90 days cannot be cancelled; after that it is one calendar month's notice.
Set-up and remote testing, two days of on-site operator training, four weekly one-hour data reviews and leadership training on the platform. Travel and subsistence for on-site training are not included.
A 30-minute call with a manufacturing specialist. We look at one of your lines together and show you what the first week of data would say about it.
