'Cracked the code': Yorkshire AI firm unveils new platform to help deliver 'massive productivity gains'
A Yorkshire AI company which helps food and drink giants to boost machinery productivity has announced “the next stage in industrial transformation”.
Dinnington-based IntelliAM has launched a new end-to-end intelligence platform which it claims has the potential “to drive massive productivity gains for companies worldwide... without requiring major capital investment”.
It has developers its Enigma platform to uses agentic AI to more deeply understand production-line performance in factories.
IntelliAM already partners with half of the world’s top 12 food and drink manufacturers and Enigma was developed using over a decade of domain expertise alongside live deployment trials with leading brands like Müller, Hovis, and SKF. IntelliAM’s technology is already reported to have delivered reliability gains, including a 215 per cent improvement in the mean-time between failures at a single Müller site over a 12-month period.
The company believes its technology will assist with the UK’s productivity challenges.
CEO Tom Clayton said: “Britain's future productivity gains will come less from building new factories and more from improving the performance of the assets we already have. Manufacturers do not have a data problem; they have a decision problem. The opportunity now is to use agentic AI to turn trusted industrial data into better operational performance."
He added: "Agentic AI represents the next stage in industrial transformation. With the Industrial Intelligence Platform, we have cracked the code of industrial performance. This is how men and machines will be managed. This technology is about helping scarce expertise goes further.”
IntelliAM’s potential was recently cited in research by The Bessemer Society in its report into manufacturing in the Don Valley Corridor. It concluded: “Sheffield has genuine world-class R&D strengths in AI and digital manufacturing.”
