One platform to execute shop floor, supply chain, MRO, and compliance operations, without replacing your ERP or MES. Connect 981 is the execution layer that sits between your planning systems and your operations. It connects your people, your processes, and your systems in a single platform, live in weeks, not years.
No rip-and-replace. No 18-month IT project. One platform. Live in ~4 weeks.
Designer
Drag blocks, set conditions, define approval gates. Start from a pre-built aerospace template or build from scratch in the canvas. An AI assistant can draft a complete workflow from a plain-language description. You review, adjust, and deploy. Changes are version-controlled so you always know who modified what, and why. Engineering stays in control without opening a ticket.
Helpers
An AI assistant drafts workflows from plain-language descriptions. 50+ aerospace templates get you to a running process in hours, not weeks.
AI - Assisted Design
Plain language in, structured workflow out. Pre-mapped to AS9100, NADCAP, and ITAR. You review, adjust, deploy.
50+ Expert Templates
Aerospace-ready execution templates. Pick one, tailor it, deploy in days.
Execution
The operator interface is task-based and immediate. Workers see what to do, do it, and move on. Every action is guided. Every input is logged.
No complex menus. No multi-day training. Connect 981 adapts to the operator, on tablet, mobile, or desktop. Wherever the work happens.
Designed for the shop floor, not the back office.
Reports
Managers get real-time visibility into execution across sites. Track work orders, monitor supplier actions, flag bottlenecks — all in a single dashboard.
industry standard
ISA-95 is the international standard that defines how enterprise systems, execution systems, and control systems should work together in manufacturing. It exists because mixing these layers creates fragile, expensive, unmaintainable environments.Connect 981 occupies Level 3: the execution and operations management layer. This is the layer most aerospace manufacturers are missing entirely, or filling with spreadsheets and email.
Security & Compliance
Built from the ground up for regulated aerospace environments. Connect 981 isn't a generic SaaS platform retrofitted with a compliance checklist. ITAR controls, role-based access, and immutable audit trails are core to the architecture, not add-ons. Architecture documentation, penetration test results, and compliance attestations are available for vendor security assessments without a lengthy procurement process.
