Complete integration
From the production order to the report: we connect your MRP, your automation and your ERP into a single chain. Orders come down to the floor, results go back up to the system — no double entry, no gap between the plant and the office.
one chain, one partner.
The weight of invisible losses:
Hidden costs of disconnected operations
Mixing and weighing errors
Material losses that are hard to measure
Dependence on key people
Traceability that takes hours to rebuild
Manual entry across several systems
What our work includes:
From MRP to automation
Production orders, recipes and quantities sent down to the equipment, without re-keying.
From automation to ERP
Batches produced, actual consumption and inventory sent back up as production runs.
Mapping and matching
Products, units, sites and recipes matched between the two systems.
Monitoring and reconciliation
Exchange logs, error handling and reconciliation: nothing gets lost along the way.
Integration in practice
The link between the floor and the office — in both directions.
One chain, one partner
A single point of responsibility from the order to the report — no finger-pointing between suppliers.
No double entry
What is produced on the floor lands in the system as it happens, without re-keying.
Inventory that reflects reality
Actual consumption feeds the ERP continuously: what the system shows is what the plant did.

Situation — The grinder and the roller mill ran in manual mode, on separate starters.
What NIVEK did — We redesigned the electrical room and the control system: sensors added, programming and commissioning. A “keep full” mode holds the silos full from grind level setpoints — normal and critical. When the particle size changes, the adjustment stays manual, so the system asks the operator to confirm it has been made.
Automated two-pit receiving
Situation — Receiving ran entirely in manual mode.
What NIVEK did — We automated all of it: two receiving pits, bulk-to-bulk transfers and debagging — from bags to bulk.
Automated liquid fertilizer plant
What NIVEK did — We automated the whole plant:
- 4 receiving stations, 3 mixers
- 2 truck loading stations, 1 tote filling station
- Solid products blended into the liquid mixes
- 31 storage silos, 189 valves
The system computes the best route for each product and prevents any contamination between incompatible products. Mixing times are driven by each product's parameters.
Automated bitumen polymerization plant
What NIVEK did — We automated the whole plant:
- Rail and truck receiving, storage and warehousing
- Continuous dosing for polymerization
- 2 “blend to truck” shipping bays: the recipe is dosed straight into the truck, with every product starting and finishing at the same time
- Advanced recipe management
- Standalone scale: prints shipping tickets and certificates of compliance
Small technical problems come up during our peak periods, and NIVEK has always been able to solve them.
NIVEK commissioned our bagging unit and configured all the equipment.
