Excel Automation & Data Services for Manufacturing Companies
Production, yield, downtime and cost-per-unit - built for plant controllers and the finance teams that audit them..

- plant
Production tracking across lines - every shift maintaining its own tally sheet, no plant-wide view of where output stands against plan until the next day.
Yield and downtime that lives in a notebook on the supervisor's desk - by the time the report reaches the plant head, the shift is over and the cause is lost.
Cost-per-unit and variance to standard that the plant accountant rebuilds every month-end from the same export, the same way, with the same mistakes.
Services for manufacturing
Where I help plant controllers and finance teams.
Excel Automation
Refresh-to-report MES pipelines with Power Query, validation checks and scheduled PDF + email distribution.
Power Query / Power BI
M pipelines against MES exports and ERP dumps. Star-schema data model, DAX measures, Power BI dashboards when self-serve is needed.
Excel Dashboard Design
Output by line, yield, downtime, cost-per-unit and contribution margin on one refreshable view. Plant head and finance read the same numbers.
Excel Data Cleaning
Tidy MES exports, validate order IDs and reject bad rows before they reach the dashboard.
Engagement
Typical manufacturing plant month-end close
- Problem
- Plant's month-end close was a five-day exercise - copy from the MES export, clean it, run four pivots, email PDFs to four people, hope the source hadn't drifted.
- Approach
- I would replace the manual cleanup with a Power Query pipeline that ingests the MES export, types every column, normalises text fields and runs explicit validation checks. A VBA macro would refresh the workbook, exports to PDF and emails the right person. Power Automate can trigger the whole thing at 8am on day two.
- Outcome
- Designed to cut manual steps from raw export to report to zero, with bad data stopping the refresh and alerting the owner before a report goes out.

Frequently asked
Before you hire an Excel consultant for manufacturing.
Can you connect to our MES or ERP?
Yes - SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Tally, custom MES exports and even PLC CSV drops all flow into Power Query. The pipeline is documented so the next plant analyst can extend it.
Will the report work for both plant and finance?
Yes - the design splits the plant-facing view (output by line, yield, downtime) from the finance-facing view (cost-per-unit, variance to standard, contribution margin) on the same refresh. Same data, different angles.
