nPower Technologies and Caddis Systems Partner to Deliver Real-Time Production Scheduling and Monitoring for Manufacturers
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New integration connects production scheduling intelligence with real-time shop floor machine data, giving manufacturers a single, accurate view of what’s happening on the shop floor and what’s next in the schedule.
PHILADELPHIA, PA and BETTENDORF, IA — September 14, 2026 — nPower Technologies, a leader in advanced production scheduling software, and Caddis Systems, a machine monitoring solution built for manufacturers, today announced a strategic partnership that combines intelligent production scheduling with real-time machine data. Together, the companies deliver a unified production management solution that helps manufacturers close the gap between what’s planned and what’s actually happening on the shop floor.
Manufacturers have long had to choose between two disconnected views of their operations: forward-looking production schedules and real-time machine performance data. Without both working together, plant managers are left reconciling spreadsheets, guessing at true capacity, and reacting to problems after they’ve already cost time and money.
The nPower-Caddis partnership solves this by connecting nPower’s automated production scheduling engine with Caddis’s real-time machine monitoring, which includes utilization, downtime, cycle time, and OEE across CNC, injection molding, and other industrial equipment. The result is a live feedback loop: nPower schedules work based on true machine availability and performance, while Caddis continuously updates that picture in real time, so schedules stay accurate as conditions on the floor change.
“Every scheduling engine is only as good as the data it runs on, and until now the biggest variable was always what was actually happening on the machine. Bringing Caddis’s live floor data directly into nPower means our schedules stay current with real shop floor conditions, and that changes how confidently our customers can plan and execute,” said David Bennett, Chief Product Officer, nPower Technologies.
“CADDIS captures machine status, utilization, and downtime straight from the equipment, and nPower pulls that data directly into their scheduling in real time. Joint customers get planning decisions driven by actual machine performance rather than manual entry or best guesses,” said Mike Zimmerman, VP, CADDIS Systems.
With the combined solution, manufacturers can:
- Build production schedules based on real-time usage and planned machine capacity
- Automatically adjust schedules when downtime, delays, or rush orders disrupt the plan
- Get a single source of truth for machine performance and production planning
- Reduce late orders, idle time, and manual re-scheduling work
The integrated offering is available now to new and existing customers of both companies.
