Data engineering consultancy in Eindhoven

It builds the data flows that reports and models rely on: pipelines from machines, quality systems and ERP, a lakehouse or data warehouse, checks and access controls. In Brainport, this often involves high-tech and manufacturing companies with many production lines, product variants and suppliers.

If you’re looking for a data engineer or a data platform in Eindhoven, we provide a team to build the whole system and hand it over. Read more about our data engineering service.

We only read data; we never write back to the control system. This is often done through the historian or MES that already collects the data, or through a gateway on your own network that only makes outbound connections.

Your IT and OT teams decide which approach is permitted. We show you what each approach requires in terms of network access, permissions and management.

Using an identifier found in every system: an order number, batch number or serial number, supplemented by the machine and timestamp. If an identifier is missing from a source, we work with your production team to establish a consistent rule for deriving it.

Only when that link is reliable can a report show which production line or material is behind a deviation.

It organises data into layers: bronze for raw data as it arrives, silver for cleaned and linked data, and gold for tables ready to use in reports or models. This lets you trace errors back to their source.

At Fokker Services Group, we bring data together, clean it and model it using this architecture, with data quality checks built in.

We build on Databricks, Microsoft Fabric or your existing environment, choosing what fits your IT landscape. For Vivara, we used Azure, Databricks, dbt and Terraform, among other tools.

We define pipelines and infrastructure as code and provide documentation. That way, your own team or another provider can take over the platform.

We agree on that in advance. Your own team can take over, with documentation and a handover. Or we can continue to monitor and expand the platform with new production lines, machines or data sources.

If a single ERP or MES already answers your questions, or if machine data is only viewed machine by machine and never compared with orders or quality data. A platform also needs managing.

We’ll say so in the first conversation. Sometimes a better export or a consistent definition in the ERP is enough.
