Partner, PwC
It`s already my second engagement of Akveo. Akveo is a straightforward company. They’re open for discussion, have innovative solutions, and they understand how to use and leverage them on the market and investing a lot in great open source products.
Head of Telematics & Connectivity, Erwin Hymer Group
Our cooperation with Akveo is the reliable foundation for delivering high quality solutions for our partners. Proactive mutual conversations on various topics around business, technology and innovation always bring fruitful opportunities for a strong long-term relationship.
CEO, Swiss Startup Tech
They take care about what customer asks and they always try to give him attention and results. Even if, as in our case, the customer does not ask a "standard project" but only consultancy and support. Thanks to Akveo's outstanding consultancy services, the company will be able to launch its apps soon.
CTO, MySolution
The team of Akveo handled both the front-end and back-end parts. Weekly meetings allowed us to stay on the same page regarding the overall progress, and daily syncs helped us resolve issues faster. Our team was impressed by their knowledge and expertise. For instance, when I gave them a task for investigating, they came up with an optimal solution in terms of cost and quality efficiency.
Managing Director, Astute Computer Consulting

Manufacturing software is a category of custom software solutions designed to digitalize, automate, and optimize production operations. It spans a wide range of systems — from manufacturing execution systems (MES) and ERP platforms to inventory management, predictive maintenance tools, OEE software, and supply chain management solutions.
The right manufacturing software depends entirely on the specific operational challenges of the business. Off-the-shelf solutions like SAP, Odoo, or Oracle cover broad ERP functionality but rarely fit the exact workflows of a specific manufacturing environment. Custom manufacturing software development fills the gap — building tailored solutions that integrate with existing systems, match production-line realities, and scale with the business.
Timeline depends on scope and complexity. A focused module — such as a machine monitoring dashboard or a warehouse management tool — can be delivered in 2–4 months. Mid-range platforms with ERP integration, IoT connectivity, and custom reporting typically require 4–9 months. Enterprise-grade manufacturing software development projects with multi-site deployments and complex data infrastructure run 9–18 months.
Custom manufacturing software development costs vary significantly by scope. Targeted tools — a production scheduling module or an OEE dashboard — typically run $40,000–$100,000. Mid-complexity platforms with system integrations and IoT connectivity range from $100,000–$300,000. Enterprise-grade manufacturing execution systems or multi-site platforms can exceed $300,000.
Factors include the number of integrations with existing systems, real-time data requirements, mobile components, and AI features.
An ERP (enterprise resource planning) system manages business-level functions — finance, procurement, HR, and order management — across the entire organization. A manufacturing execution system (MES) operates at the shop floor level, tracking real-time production orders, machine status, quality checkpoints, and operator activity.
Predictive maintenance software analyzes real-time telemetry data from manufacturing equipment — vibration, temperature, pressure, cycle counts — to identify patterns that indicate impending failure. Rather than scheduling maintenance on fixed intervals or waiting for breakdowns, predictive maintenance platforms alert teams when equipment health data suggests intervention is needed.
Yes. Integration with SAP, Odoo, and custom ERP systems is a core part of most manufacturing software development engagements. Akveo builds integration layers using REST APIs, Azure Service Bus, and direct database connectors to enable real-time data exchange between custom manufacturing applications and existing ERP and CRM systems.
