A new alliance between software developer Byte Software Services and sewn products automation and marketing firm TexTempo aims to help apparel companies digitally transform a range of manufacturing operations through advanced shop floor data collection and analysis.
Byte and TexTempo have joined forces to offer what they say is the broadest platform of manufacturing process improvement solutions available to the sewn products industry. Under the agreement, TexTempo has become the exclusive sales agent for Byte shop floor control, ERP, and other manufacturing solutions in North America.
“The demand for our ever-evolving suite of apparel and sewn products software has reached the stage that, to keep up with the pace of available technology, we needed a source of expertise more current than our present field experience,” says Byte president Ben Gause. “TexTempo brings us that in spades. We are fortunate to find 60 years of sales experience in apparel manufacturing automation to take Byte into the next 40 years.”
TexTempo will leverage its expertise in manufacturing automation for sectors including apparel and technical textiles to lead the launch of a new ByteTime family of wireless, tablet-based apps. The platform includes real-time Shop Floor Control (SFC), piecework payroll, production, quality control, inventory, shipping and receiving solutions, and is based on core Byte solutions that have evolved through practical application and customer interaction over the past 40 years.
“Partnering with Byte gives us the perfect match of experience, manufacturing orientation, and technology we need to help our clients digitally transform their manufacturing operations,” says TexTempo senior vice president Greg Hathcox.
