Services
Three services. One connected strategy.
Transformation without security is a risk, and AI without ready data is a gamble. We assess each in the context of the others, so your investments reinforce one another instead of competing.
Industry 4.0 Digital Transformation
Benchmark digital maturity across seven dimensions, then turn the findings into a funded, phased roadmap.

Industry 4.0 Digital Transformation
A structured, evidence-based path from where you are today to a funded, sequenced roadmap — so transformation is driven by facts, not by whoever argues loudest.
- Digital maturity assessment — an enterprise questionnaire scores seven dimensions on a five-level scale, from Nascent to Leading, across leaders and frontline teams.
- Stakeholder discovery — confidential interviews and workshops uncover the “why” behind the scores and where perception diverges.
- AS-IS findings — strengths, gaps and evidence triangulated from surveys, interviews and document review.
- Vision & strategy — target maturity, guiding principles and strategic pillars your board can get behind.
- Roadmap & business case — phased horizons, rollout waves and milestones, backed by an investment case released in gated tranches.
The seven dimensions we assess
- Strategy & Leadership
- Customer Experience
- Technology & Infrastructure
- Data & Analytics
- Process & Operations
- Culture & Talent
- Innovation & Ecosystem
You receive
Maturity scorecard & AS-IS findings report · vision & strategy report · phased roadmap · business case
Service 02
OT Cyber Security Assessment
Connecting plants creates value — and exposure. We assess your control-system environment with safety and uptime as the first rule, never the last.
- Asset discovery & inventory — passive, non-intrusive visibility of DCS, SCADA, PLCs, HMIs, historians and network devices.
- Architecture & segmentation review — Purdue-model zones and conduits, IT/OT boundaries and firewall posture.
- Risk & vulnerability assessment — threat-informed, prioritised by operational consequence, not just CVSS score.
- Access & third-party review — remote access, vendor connections and privileged accounts.
- Resilience & response readiness — backup, recovery and incident-response capability for OT environments.
You receive
Asset inventory · zone & conduit map · risk register · gap analysis against IEC 62443 and NIST · prioritised remediation roadmap · executive summary
Service 03
AI Readiness Assessment
AI projects stall on data, skills and governance long before the algorithm matters. We give you an honest, evidence-based picture before you invest.
- Data readiness — availability, quality, context and lineage of your OT and IT data.
- Infrastructure & integration — connectivity, edge and cloud capability, and MLOps foundations.
- Skills & operating model — roles, ownership and change readiness across engineering, operations and IT.
- Governance & risk — responsible-AI practice, model oversight and regulatory awareness, with safety in the loop.
- Use-case feasibility — a shortlist scored for value, data fit and risk, with quick wins identified.
You receive
Readiness scorecard · data & platform gap analysis · scored use-case shortlist · governance recommendations · 90-day action plan
Our approach
From unknowns to an actionable roadmap
Every engagement follows the same thread: understand where you are, decide where to go, and make it stick.
-
01
Discover
Workshops, site walk-downs and data review to baseline your current state with minimal disruption.
-
02
Assess
Score maturity, readiness or risk against recognised frameworks, backed by evidence from your own environment.
-
03
Prioritise
Translate findings into a ranked, costed roadmap that balances value, risk and effort.
-
04
Enable
Hand over clear actions, support delivery and track progress so improvements stick.
Why Innothreads
Innovation that holds together
The name says it: innovative threads. The best ideas fail when information, technology and security are treated separately — so we assess them together.
Aligned with recognised standards and frameworks
- IEC 62443
- NIST CSF 2.0
- NIST SP 800-82
- ISA-95
- NIST AI RMF
- ISO/IEC 42001
- NIS2
OT-aware, safety first
We understand that uptime and safety come before everything. Our methods are passive and coordinated with your operations team.
Vendor-neutral advice
We have nothing to sell but clarity. Recommendations are driven by your goals, not a product catalogue.
Evidence over opinion
Every score and finding is traceable to data we collected with you — the thread runs all the way through.
Practical, not theoretical
You leave with a prioritised plan your teams can act on next week, not a shelf-ware report.
