One price per work center. Whether you run 5 or 500.
No tiers. No volume negotiation. No surprise line items. Monitor, schedule, or both. The only variable is how many work centers are connected.

The conventional path to floor visibility is a 12 to 18 month enterprise MES project averaging $450,000 to implement (Panorama Consulting, 2025). Gartner projects 70%+ of ERP initiatives will fail to meet business goals by 2027. LNS Research reports 75% of MES initiatives fail. This is different.
- Live machine state (running, idle, down, changeover)
- Operator-logged reason codes and context capture
- Downtime classification and root cause tracking
- Custom KPI dashboards (OEE, utilization, availability)
- Micro-stop and speed loss detection
- Automated alerts and escalation rules
- Shift-to-shift and line-to-line comparison
- Historical production data and trend analysis
- Self-service admin (add machines, change KPIs)
- Open APIs, full data export
Delivers: 15% reduction in unproductive time. Hardware: ~$500-$1,000/wc, customer-owned.
Book a Diagnostic- Everything in Monitor and Schedule
- Bidirectional monitoring-scheduling loop
- Schedule auto-updates from live machine state
- Cross-product analytics
- Priority support escalation
- Quarterly business review with Kinetech
Delivers: $500K-$2M recoverable value in Year 1.
Book a Diagnostic- Visual production scheduling by work center
- Multi-operation routing, any sequence, any duration
- Schedule attainment tracking (planned vs. actual)
- Machine capability constraints enforced
- Conflict detection and overload alerts
- Job duration tracking (actual vs. estimated)
- Predictive duration engine (ML, in development)
- No hardware required. Works standalone.
Delivers: 3-5% schedule attainment improvement in 90 days. ERP integration available.

CMMS and asset management connected to the production floor.
Work orders, preventive maintenance, spare parts, reliability tracking. Breakdown detected on the floor auto-creates a work order. PM blocks appear on the production schedule. Will be available standalone or alongside Monitor and Schedule when production-ready.
Pricing announced when production-ready. Will be flat per work center.
Start with 5 work centers. See results in 90 days.
The POC is designed to cost less than one month of what the status quo is already costing. Results are visible within 90 days. If they don't justify going further, you keep the hardware and the data.
The VP can justify this without board approval at most target companies. The diagnostic names the annual cost of the status quo (typically $200K-$2M+). The POC costs less than one month of it.
One-time. Scoped before work begins.
| Service | Scope | Price Range |
|---|---|---|
| Floor Assessment & Instrumentation Design | Per facility | $5,000-$15,000 |
| Hardware Procurement & Pre-Configuration | Per work center | $150-$400 |
| Sensor Installation & Commissioning | Per work center | $300-$800 |
| Edge Gateway Install & Network Config | Per facility | $1,500-$4,000 |
| Platform Configuration (KPIs, dashboards, users) | Per facility | $3,000-$8,000 |
| Operator Training | Per facility (up to 3 sessions) | $2,000-$5,000 |
| Go-Live Support | Per facility | $2,000-$5,000 |
Typical all-in setup for a 30-machine facility: $30,000-$55,000 one-time. Pre-configuring hardware off-site compresses the on-site window. Kinetech shows up to install, not to troubleshoot.
What to expect per component.
| Component | Per-Unit Cost | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Current transducer (legacy machines) | $50-$150 | Non-invasive, clamp-on. No wiring modification. |
| Edge gateway | $300-$800 | One gateway covers 5-15 machines. |
| Operator tablet/display (optional) | $200-$500 | May use existing devices. |
| Networking (switches, cabling, cellular) | $500-$3,000 | Per facility. Cellular eliminates plant network dependency. |
Typical hardware for a 30-machine facility: $8,000-$20,000 one-time, customer-owned. Standard industrial equipment. No proprietary hardware. No subscription.

What the math looks like for a real buyer.
30 x $4,284/yr = $128,520/year
Against $500K-$2M recoverable value.
15 x $3,240/yr = $48,600/year
Against 15% reduction in unproductive time.
75 x $4,284/yr = $321,300/year
Against steel case study benchmarks (20% run rate, 45% changeover).
The difference was floor visibility, not capital.

Frequently asked questions.
How much does MACH cost for a 30-machine facility?
For a 30-machine facility, MACH Monitor runs $97,200/year (30 work centers at $270/wc/mo). MACH Complete (Monitor + Schedule bundle, 15% discount) runs $128,520/year (30 work centers at $357/wc/mo). One-time setup typically runs $30,000 to $55,000. Hardware is $0 to $20,000 depending on whether compatible equipment is already on the floor. Pricing is flat per work center. Same rate whether you run 5 machines or 100.
How is MACH priced?
Flat per work center per month, annual billing and annual contract term. Schedule $150/wc/mo. Monitor $270/wc/mo. Complete (Monitor + Schedule) $357/wc/mo with a 15% bundle discount built in. Unlimited users, orders, operators, and schedulers at every size. Above 100 work centers, contact sales for custom pricing.
Is there a monthly billing option?
No. Published pricing is annual billing, annual contract term. Custom terms are available on request for enterprise deployments through the diagnostic conversation.
What is included in the MACH proof of concept?
The MACH proof of concept covers 5 work centers over 90 days and costs $16,000 to $22,000. It includes hardware setup, configuration, operator training, and a written performance report. The 90-day window is long enough to see a measurable OEE shift.
What is the minimum hardware cost to deploy MACH?
Hardware cost can be $0 if the customer already has compatible standard industrial equipment on the floor. Where new hardware is needed, the typical range is $500 to $1,000 per machine. MACH uses customer-owned standard industrial hardware. It does not require an active MACH subscription to function.
