// About
Unbridled Automation Group is a boutique consulting firm founded by practitioners who have spent careers inside large manufacturing organizations — designing, building, and operating automation at scale.
We don't arrive with slide decks and leave with invoices. We engage as operators: embedded, accountable, and focused on outcomes that survive contact with the real factory floor.
Our principals bring senior leadership experience across Fortune 500 manufacturers in industrial robotics, digital twin, MES, IoT, connected factory systems, and supply chain automation — with a combined track record measured in hundreds of deployed robots and tens of millions in documented cost reductions.
Engagements are kept intentionally small so our best people are always doing the work.
// Services
We engage across the full automation lifecycle — from strategy and justification through design, deployment, and operator enablement. Every engagement is scoped to deliver measurable outcomes.
Current-state assessment, opportunity identification, ROI modeling, and phased roadmap development aligned to operational priorities and capital planning cycles.
End-to-end robotics program leadership — from cell design and vendor selection through commissioning, safety validation, and production handoff. Proven across hundreds of deployed robots at enterprise scale.
Emulate3D-based digital twin development for line design validation, throughput analysis, and operator training — before a single piece of capital is committed.
Manufacturing Execution System design and deployment, IoT architecture, real-time production visibility, and OEE improvement programs for complex multi-site operations.
Automated material handling, ASRS, conveyor and AGV integration, and RFID-based tracking architectures for high-volume manufacturing and distribution environments.
Interim technical leadership and structured recovery planning for automation programs that have stalled, overrun, or lost organizational momentum. We've seen most failure modes before.
