Manufacturing Technology Modernization
Your Floor Runs Better
When Your Technology Does Too.
Wadia helps manufacturers leverage the right technology—whether proven SaaS platforms or bespoke AI applications built specifically for your facility—to improve OEE, eliminate operational friction, and give leadership real-time visibility into what matters most. We are operators who have done it before.
About Wadia
We've been on the floor. We know what's broken.
Wadia is a boutique technology services firm based in Rochester, Michigan, dedicated to helping manufacturers modernize their operations. We bridge the gap between the shop floor and the executive suite—implementing the right technology, building custom tools where none exist, and ensuring your team actually adopts what we deploy.
A Good Judgment Firm
Why do manufacturers choose Wadia? Because in a market full of vendors pushing their own platforms, they need an independent partner with no agenda other than their success. We are platform-agnostic. We recommend what's right for your facility, not what pays us the most. Our clients partner with us for our track record of successful implementations, our ability to build custom solutions quickly and affordably, and our commitment to measurable outcomes—improved OEE, reduced downtime, and leadership visibility that actually drives decisions.
Partner with a team that treats your facility like their own.
What Does Wadia Mean?
The name Wadia carries three meanings, each one shaping how we serve our clients.
In Arabic, wadia means calmness and composure—the steady hand you need when navigating turbulent times. When your firm faces its most challenging moments, you don't need panic or theory. You need someone who has been there before, someone who brings clarity and confidence to the chaos.
Wadia also means something of great value held in trust, with the intention of passing it on. Our founder built this firm not just as a business, but as a legacy—something of enduring value to hand down to his children. That same philosophy drives how we work with you: we don't extract value and leave. We build something lasting, then hand you the keys.
Finally, Wadia was our founder's grandmother—a woman he loved deeply and who embodied both meanings of her name. She was calm in the storm. She built something worth keeping. And she passed it on.
That's what we do for you.
Our Mission
To help manufacturers harness the right technology—SaaS platforms and bespoke AI applications—to improve operational efficiency, increase OEE, and give leadership the real-time visibility needed to make better decisions.
Our Vision
To be the most trusted technology implementation partner for manufacturers—known for our independence, our execution, and our commitment to measurable outcomes on the shop floor and in the boardroom.
Our Purpose
Wadia was built on a purpose that goes beyond profit. It is a generational mission to create opportunities for good people, to build something of lasting value, and to operate with unwavering integrity.
What We Do
Three Ways We Modernize Your Operations
Whether you need to implement proven SaaS platforms, build custom tools for your unique processes, or give leadership the visibility to drive better decisions—we deliver measurable outcomes, not just deliverables.
SaaS Implementation
We identify, evaluate, and implement the right SaaS platforms for your facility—without the bias of vendor relationships. From ERP and MES to quality management, CMMS, and production scheduling, we match your operational needs to the right solution, manage the full implementation, and ensure your team is trained and confident before we hand over the keys.
Most technology projects fail not because of the software, but because of poor planning, weak change management, and lack of adoption. We've seen it all—and we know how to avoid it.
- Platform-agnostic vendor evaluation and selection
- Full project management from kickoff to go-live
- Change management and user adoption planning
- Team training and post-launch support
- Integration with existing systems and workflows
Bespoke AI Applications
Sometimes the right tool doesn't exist yet—so we build it. Wadia develops custom AI-powered applications tailored to your specific manufacturing processes, delivering capabilities that were previously only available to the largest enterprises, now at a fraction of the cost and in a fraction of the time.
Whether you need a custom OEE dashboard, an AI-driven quality inspection tool, a predictive maintenance alert system, or a real-time production visibility platform, we design and build it around how your facility actually operates.
- Custom application development for your exact processes
- AI-powered quality inspection and defect detection
- Predictive maintenance and downtime alerting
- Real-time production monitoring and reporting
- Delivered faster and more affordably than ever before
Leadership Visibility & Reporting
You can't manage what you can't see. We build the data infrastructure and reporting layer that gives your leadership team real-time visibility into OEE, throughput, quality, downtime, and cost—across one facility or many.
We connect your existing systems, clean and structure your data, and deliver dashboards that drive decisions rather than just display numbers. Leadership gets the visibility they need. Operations gets the accountability that drives improvement.
- Executive and operations dashboards
- OEE tracking and benchmarking
- Cross-facility performance visibility
- Data integration from existing systems (ERP, MES, SCADA)
- Actionable KPIs tied to business outcomes

Who We Serve
Built for manufacturers who are ready to modernize
We work with manufacturers of all types and sizes who know their operations could run better—but haven't had the right partner to make it happen. If your leadership team is making decisions without real-time data, or your teams are working around broken processes, we're the right fit.
Our Values
What we stand for
Empathy
We have walked in our clients' shoes and understand their challenges intimately.
Reliable Integrity
We earn trust by responding when it matters, honoring every commitment, and operating with unwavering integrity.
Seasoned Mastery
We deliver confident, results-driven solutions through the proven expertise of experienced professionals.
Genuine Connections
We love and care for our customers as people, not just partners. It's more than just a business transaction for us.
Failure Is Not An Option
We go beyond transactions to build authentic friendships grounded in trust, loyalty, and shared success.
What Sets Us Apart
Why manufacturers choose Wadia
There's no shortage of technology vendors and consultants in manufacturing. Here's what makes Wadia different.
Truly Platform-Agnostic
We have no vendor partnerships that influence what we recommend. Our only agenda is finding the right solution for your facility. When we recommend a platform, you can trust it's because it's the right fit—not because it pays us a commission.
We Execute, Not Just Advise
We don't hand you a report and walk away. We manage the full implementation—project planning, change management, team training, and post-launch support. We stay until the technology is working and your team is confident.
Custom When Off-the-Shelf Won't Do
When no SaaS platform fits your process, we build one. Our bespoke AI application capability means you're never forced to adapt your operations to software limitations. We build around how you actually work.
Outcomes, Not Deliverables
We measure success by what changes on your floor and in your reports—improved OEE, reduced downtime, faster decisions, better visibility. Not by the number of slides in a deck or hours billed.
