A program leaves the CAM seat for the floor on a network drive, an email, or a USB stick. Nobody can say for sure which rev is running, or who touched it last.
That's not a handoff. That's a leap of faith.
#Datanomix and #Hexagon just closed that gap. Program in Esprit Edge the way you do today. Every post lands in G-Code Cloud + DNC under revision control and reaches the operator as a complete Digital Production Bundle. Print, setup sheet, tooling, and the program, all under one rev.
It runs both ways too. Edits at the control come back to engineering as change requests, so the programmer decides what makes the next revision.

A round of Golf and lunch used to be how you won a customer. Not Anymore.
Frank Burch watched that model stop working. He told Tony Gunn the shift came down to one thing: showing customers the proof, not a promise. That parts run well. That they run on cost. That they run at quality.
It's why Southern Machine Works has been around for over 60 years, is still winning work today, and why the old way of doing business isn't coming back.

This is what it looks like when data replaces the sales pitch. Connecting your ERP with real machine performance is what builds that kind of trust: datanomix.io/erp-insights/
71% of the manufacturers we surveyed said finding the right file or revision is what actually slows delivery down.
The OTD bottleneck isn’t at delivery. It’s program identification. Production teams aren’t losing time moving files; they’re losing time figuring out which one is even correct before they can start.
Our G-Code Cloud Command Center puts your entire program library in one searchable view, filterable by machine, name, or revision, so finding the right file stops being the bottleneck.

There’s a quiet assumption that machine monitoring is a big-shop thing. Something for long production runs, not for a floor full of setups and quick turnarounds.
Jamie Lerma of ATD Precision Manufacturing runs the opposite kind of shop. Small to mid-size, managers and leads wearing a lot of hats, nobody free to stand on the floor tracking everything by hand.
That’s exactly why the data mattered. No more running around looking for information. It’s there, it’s ready, and Jamie knows exactly what to bring to his managers and discuss.
The smaller the team, the more every hour of visibility is worth.
Hear Jamie and @ Gabe Maentz discuss:

"Customers feel very comfortable that I'm doing what I can to make sure that I'm efficient and effective."
That's Frank Burch, President and CEO of Southern Machine Works, on selling to defense and aerospace customers who may never set foot in his shop.
His proof isn't a handshake promise anymore. It's real-time production data straight off the machine, no digging required, courtesy of #Datanomix.
We broke down how he built that system and what it's delivering in our latest Manufacturing Tomorrow case study.

A smooth install isn't luck. It's what happens when you've got a team on the line instead of a manual on the bench.
Chris Merrick at Killeen Manufacturing had a Datanomix coach telling him exactly where things plugged into the controls, where to find the menus, no guessing required. That's what a real onboarding partnership looks like, and it doesn't end at go-live.

We call that kind of support kick-ass coaching. Here's what it looks like: datanomix.io/kick-ass-coachi…
The next machinist you hire has never used a flip phone. They grew up on touchscreens, and they expect the shop floor to keep up.
Bob McGregor sees where this is going. Machines are getting smarter, wireless is everywhere, AI is in the conversation daily, and the shops that lean into it are the ones the next generation wants to work for.
Neo Industries is built around that reality with #Datanomix, because the future of manufacturing runs on data.

Without the right systems in place, the wrong program doesn't announce itself. It just runs. Then you're left with scrap.
83% of the manufacturers we surveyed pointed to the wrong version causing production issues, compliance concerns, or delivery delays due to rework.
Our G-Code Cloud Command Center was built to answer "which file is correct" before anyone has to ask it, putting every program, machine, and open change request in one place, so the correct version is the only one that runs.

Quality has been moving upstream for a hundred years. From the inspection bench, to the process, to the system. Now it's finally closing the loop inside the machine itself.
Our own Director of Data Science, Bill Murphy, digs into what the closed-loop factory really means for quality professionals and how real-time production monitoring is a critical piece of getting there.
A great read for anyone thinking about where quality is headed and what it means for the people running the floor.

Your ERP knows what you planned.
Your machines know what actually happened.
Your G-code knows what was supposed to happen.
Any two of these data sources get you an open-ended argument. Reconciling all three gets you on your feet and helps you solve problems.
Sorry, Meat Loaf. Two out of three ain't good.
Greg McHale’s IMTS 2026 recap breaks it down: hubs.la/Q04ysgbx0

Frank Burch didn't wait for the workforce problem to fix itself. He helped build the solution.
He runs a machine shop in a rural southern community. No deep talent pool. No steady pipeline of trained machinists walking through the door. Just smart, capable people who never had a path into the trade.
So he helped build one.
Frank has been part of NTMA-U since its earliest beta, and helped shape the program's latest refresh. It's how he finds people with potential, not necessarily experience, and turns them into machinists.

We put up an ERP Complaint Booth at #IMTS2026. Complaints on Scheduling. Labor tracking. Job costing. On-time delivery. All things the ERP is supposed to handle. A few ERP vendors even stopped by, laughed, and admitted it was harsh but true.
The ERP is the system of record. It's also the system of discord. Read Greg's IMTS recap on why and what comes next: hubs.la/Q04ysf0D0

Did you just have an ERPiphany? That moment of clarity when you realize your ERP will not give you the answers you need to Make More. Learn all about it here: datanomix.io/2025/04/16/maki…
Killeen Machine Tool Co has been building parts in Auburn, Massachusetts for over 100 years. Running nights and weekends. No bottlenecks. Ahead on inventory.
By every normal measure, they were already winning.
So why bring in production monitoring?
Because they weren't chasing a fix. They were chasing the truth. A century of tribal knowledge showed them where the shop had been. They wanted to see what was happening on the floor right now.
Now the whole team huddles around #Datanomix every morning. Emergency jobs trigger a phone alert instead of an empty shift. And a shop with no bottlenecks still found hundreds of hours a year they didn't know they had.
This story is about a good shop choosing to get better anyway. Watch and read the breakdown: hubs.la/Q04ywYR_0

A blank slate is a rare gift in manufacturing, and Bob McGregor made the most of his.
When he bought his shop, the setup was straight out of another era: vintage software, no connectivity, programs walked machine to machine on a floppy drive. Instead of patching it piece by piece, he started fresh and built the shop around live machine data from day one.
Bob McGregor of Neo Industries rebuilt his operations on a foundation of visibility with #Datanomix, and it's been getting sharper ever since.

In defense manufacturing, a security gap doesn't cost you a customer. It costs you the entire market.
Frank Burch competes for defense and aerospace work, where trade secrets must remain confidential. That means being ITAR registered. It means being CMMC compliant. It means site security, cameras, and credentials just to walk through the door. And lastly, it means proving that every customer's data is secure.
It's not out of reach for shops chasing this work; it just takes the right systems in place.

Six days in Chicago. Hundreds of manufacturers in the booth. One very active ERP Complaint Station.
IMTS 2026 was awesome in every way.
Our Kick-Ass Coaches stayed busy all week as longtime and brand-new customers sat down at our workbenches. We also squeezed in four in-booth interviews with Tony Gunn, a 4-hour after-party with @fulcrumhq, a #teambuilding Cubs game, and a customer appreciation dinner.
Watch the recap and read Greg McHale’s take on the show, why AI buzzwords miss the point, and why ERP, machine, and G-code data together are the path to ground truth: hubs.la/Q04y9-fj0
