One unified dashboard.

Our platform works with the equipment and systems you already have. Existing meters, PLCs, SCADA historians, production databases and APIs can feed the same dashboard as our sensors, giving your team one place to see operational data.

How the data actually gets there

On your floor

One partner from the first site walk onward.

We design, source, configure and install the entire system ourselves. Most sensors are wireless, run for years on a battery and can be installed without stopping production. When you call later, you speak with the same people who installed them.

Wireless sensor · close-up

A sensor on the line. No conduit, no trenching, no shutdown to put it there.

Base station · factory behind

One base station on the wall collects every sensor in the building.

The truck at the silos

We show up, we climb it, we wire it. That part is not subcontracted.

Compressors, chillers, boilers

The big equipment is where the money is, so it is where the meters go first.

Antennas · 900 MHz

900 MHz wireless · LoRaWAN, Digi XBee · through steel and concrete

Two ways our system pays for itself.

01

Production and process visibility

Utilities may start the conversation, but production visibility often creates the bigger opportunity. We monitor silo levels, vibration, product temperature, compressors and cooling towers—information many factories have never had continuously. It is also where predictive maintenance begins: finding a deteriorating bearing early enough to schedule the repair instead of reacting to a breakdown.

02

Utility and overhead reduction

We install permanent meters and sensors on water, electricity, natural gas and compressed air, then convert each reading into cost and GHG emissions. Minute-by-minute monitoring quickly reveals avoidable waste — often caused by schedules, setpoints, or equipment left running. Many of these fixes require little or no capital.

Nine places your factory may be losing money.

  1. 01

    Water

    At typical industrial water and sewer rates, a continuous 10 L/min leak can cost more than $15,000 per year.

    Submetering helps isolate the source, and monthly reviews keep the corrective action moving.

  2. 02

    Electricity

    Demand charges can represent 30–40% of an industrial electricity bill.

    Interval data shows when peaks occur and whether load shifting, peak shaving, or rescheduling offers the best return.

  3. 03

    Natural Gas

    Unnoticed operational changes quietly inflate heating bills 10–20%.

    A monthly bill hides the cause; interval data shows when the baseload begins to rise.

  4. 04

    Compressed Air

    Leaks silently consume 20–30% of compressor output.

    Continuous flow and pressure monitoring shows the leak load, helping your team prioritize repairs and verify the savings.

  5. 05

    Silo & Material Level

    Someone is still climbing the silo to check inventory levels.

    Non-contact radar can replace the manual check with continuous readings and a low-level alert — reducing climbs and avoiding mid-shift shortages.

  6. 06

    Vibration

    A deteriorating bearing can change its vibration signature weeks before failure.

    The change may be imperceptible on the floor but clear in the trend data.

  7. 07

    Predictive Maintenance

    At many factories, an hour of unplanned downtime can cost thousands, or tens of thousands, of dollars.

    Early warning lets your team schedule the same repair during planned downtime instead of responding during a production failure.

  8. 08

    Temperature & Humidity

    A manual 6 a.m. round takes time and captures only one moment.

    Continuous monitoring records temperature, humidity and humidex around the clock — and lets you check them from your desk, phone, or lunchroom TV.

  9. 09

    Process Monitoring

    Operator experience identifies the question. Process data gives the team evidence to act on.

    Track cycle counts, runtime, firing rate, and product temperature—the operating details a utility bill cannot show.

What can we measure?

We can source, install or integrate almost any industrial sensor or meter.

  • PressureLine, header and vessel pressure, continuously.
  • TemperatureProduct, ambient and asset, NIST probes where it matters.
  • HumidityRelative humidity in rooms, coolers and dry stores.
  • VibrationThree-axis, on motors, pumps, fans and gearboxes.
  • LevelSilos, tanks and totes, without the ladder.
  • FlowWater and liquid flow on the main and every sub-user.
  • pHEffluent, process water and CIP returns.
  • Total suspended solidsWhat your wastewater surcharge is actually priced on.
  • Air qualityParticulate, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and more.
  • Water qualityConductivity, dissolved oxygen and ORP alongside pH.
  • Energy and powerMains and sub-users, current draw, demand peaks.
  • Compressed airFlow and pressure, so leak load stops being a guess.
  • Analog signals4-20 mA, 0-10 V, pulse and dry contact.
  • Process operationsRuntime, cycles and the numbers a bill never shows.
  • Predictive maintenanceCatch the bearing on a Saturday, not on a Tuesday.
  • Asset monitoringWhere it is, whether it moved, whether it is open.

Review the assumptions

Energy Management Information System (EMIS) savings inform the energy rates. Bill allocations and savings rates can be edited separately below.

Demand share of the electricity bill Assumption

Bill allocation (%)

A split of the bill, not a saving. This is the portion of an industrial electricity bill set by the peak kilowatts drawn in a billing period rather than by the kilowatt-hours consumed. It decides which of the two rates below applies to which dollars. It is never applied as a savings rate on its own.

Source for the starting assumption

src/data/benchmarks.json electricity.demandChargeShare, Quantify's own published framing of how much of an industrial electricity bill peak demand sets. The conservative end of that published band is used here.

Compressed air as a share of the electricity bill Assumption

Bill allocation (%)

Compressed air is an electricity end use, so its spend is carved out of the electricity bill rather than added to it. The share is derived from the leak calculator on this same page: a 100 hp package at 80 % load and 90 % motor efficiency draws 66.3 kW, which over 6,000 hours a year at $0.12/kWh is $47,744 of electricity, or 9.9 % of the example factory's $480,000 electricity bill. Rounded to 10 %.

Source for the starting assumption

Derived from src/lib/calculators/index.js compressedAirLeakCost() using benchmarks.json air.kwPerHp (0.746 kW/hp), air.motorEfficiency (0.90, US DOE Uniform Methods Project Chapter 22), air.compressorHoursTypical (6,000 h/yr) and electricity.blendedRate ($0.12/kWh).

Electricity energy saving Assumption

Savings rate (% of component spend)

NRCan's own band for a properly implemented Energy Management Information System, applied to the consumption part of the bill only. The low case is the department’s definitional floor, the central case is the figure it calls a reasonable initial approximation, and the high case is the top of the band it reports.

Source for the starting assumption

Natural Resources Canada, "Energy Management Information Systems: Achieving Improved Energy Efficiency" (the EMIS handbook, Office of Energy Efficiency). Section 2.1 sets the definitional floor: an effective EMIS is "one that will reduce energy costs by at least 5 percent". Section 6.4 gives the band: "an EMIS can save 5 to 15 percent of annual energy costs. As an initial approximation, 8 percent appears to be a reasonable estimate." natural-resources.canada.ca/sites/nrcan/files/oee/pdf/publications/industrial/EMIS/EMIS_eng.pdf (retrieved 2026-09-02; see orchestration/research-v5/emis-savings-source.md).

Demand charge reduction Assumption

Savings rate (% of component spend)

A sensitivity, and it opens at zero. Shaving a billing peak needs load that can actually be moved, and a factory whose peak is set by continuous process load may recover nothing here. Where a peak can be moved, price the measured kilowatts directly with demandSavingsFromKw() instead of using this band: the Alectra Guelph general service 50 to 999 kW demand charge is $11.21/kW-month, so 50 kW off the peak for twelve months is $6,726 a year.

Source for the starting assumption

No published Canadian figure exists for the demand reduction a monitoring programme delivers, so this band is a stated sensitivity rather than a citation. The rate behind the kilowatt form is benchmarks.json electricity.demandChargeRate ($11.21/kW-month, Alectra Utilities Guelph Rate Zone, OEB-approved tariff, Rate Order EB-2025-0055, retrieved 2026-08-25).

Compressed air saving Assumption

Savings rate (% of component spend)

The published leak share of compressor output is 20 to 30 %, and a leak survey with ultrasonic detection and a fixed repair round recovers most of it. The central case takes the conservative end of the published band, the low case halves it for a site with an active leak programme, and the high case is the top of the band.
