Connect Poka to Your Digital Manufacturing Ecosystem

Bridging the frontline gap in your digital workflows

Why Integrate?

Despite significant investment in software to support manufacturing operations, frontline workers are often still burdened with disconnected, manual processes. For digitally mature factories, the challenge can be the volume of systems that workers need to use.

Poka offers a seamless interface and single-point of access for frontline workers. Using our integration tools you can extend the power and value of your existing systems by connecting your frontline workers and processes to your digital workflows.
