Scripting, automation & API integration

Modern IT infrastructure requires seamless integration between diverse systems and platforms. OFEP excels at developing custom scripts and automation solutions that connect disparate systems, automate repetitive tasks, and enable data flows across your technology stack.

Core Competencies

Our scripting expertise spans multiple languages and environments:

Python

Complex automation, cloud operations, data processing, and API integrations

PowerShell

Windows automation, Active Directory management, and Microsoft ecosystem integration

Perl

Text processing, legacy system integration, and system administration

Bash

Linux/Unix automation, server orchestration, and infrastructure management

Industrial integration challenges

Manufacturing and industrial companies face unique challenges integrating equipment from multiple vendors into cohesive solutions. OFEP specializes in creating custom integration layers that provide end-to-end visibility across production environments, transforming fragmented systems into unified platforms with comprehensive monitoring and control.

Real-world automation examples

Our development team has delivered numerous automation solutions across diverse environments:

Cloud automation (AWS)

  • Custom Python scripts using boto3 for automated AWS infrastructure management, provisioning, and operational tasks
  • Automated AWS KMS key rotation across multiple services (EC2, S3, CloudTrail, RDS, CloudWatch, DynamoDB) ensuring continuous security compliance without manual intervention

Credential management & security automation

  • Integration with Bitwarden password manager via API to retrieve credentials and automatically rotate passwords across infrastructure components including Dell iDRAC, VMware vSphere, vSAN, and DataCore storage systems
  • Automated password lifecycle management reducing security risks and administrative overhead

Data integration & warehousing

  • Custom scripts extracting data from multiple databases and APIs, transforming and loading into IBM Data Warehouse for consolidated business intelligence and reporting

Security platform integration

  • Custom development integrating Zscaler secure web gateway with Darktrace AI-powered threat detection, enabling automated response workflows based on behavioral analysis

Web scraping for workflow automation

  • Intelligent web scraping solutions to extract data from supplier systems lacking APIs, enabling automated workflows across multiple vendors and eliminating manual data entry

Industrial IoT & MES integration

  • Development of industrial gateways capturing logs from manufacturing machines using proprietary protocols, normalizing data formats, and injecting into Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES)
  • Bridging legacy industrial equipment with modern data platforms

Machine learning & artificial intelligence

OFEP develops practical AI and machine learning solutions that solve real-world business problems, with particular expertise in edge computing and offline AI deployments.

Industrial data collection & normalization

We’ve developed innovative solutions for manufacturing environments with limited connectivity:
Software Development Services 5

Raspberry Pi-based data collectors

Custom firmware transforming Raspberry Pi W 2 devices into "USB gadget" data collectors that automatically capture production logs from legacy machines only capable of exporting to USB keys (FAT32 format). These devices:

  • Connect directly to industrial machines and test benches
  • Normalize heterogeneous log formats from different equipment manufacturers
  • Extract production data (timestamps, item counts, quality control measurements)
  • Inject structured data into relational databases for analysis
This approach transforms legacy equipment with poor connectivity into smart, connected devices without requiring expensive machine retrofits or complex network integration.

AI-powered production analytics

  • Argentics AI platform: Multi-agent AI system continuously processing production data throughout the day, building real-time statistics and insights about manufacturing operations. The platform identifies patterns, anomalies, and optimization opportunities that would be invisible in manual analysis.

Computer vision & edge AI

OFEP has developed advanced computer vision projects leveraging distributed edge computing:

  • Architecture: Multiple minicomputers (Raspberry Pi 5 with Pi Camera modules) deployed across facilities, each running local machine learning models for image analysis and interpretation.
  • Offline & local processing: Unlike cloud-dependent solutions, our edge AI systems operate entirely offline and locally (disconnected from networks), processing images directly on-device and taking immediate actions including:
  • Object counting and tracking
  • Anomaly detection and alerting
  • Voice-based interactions and notifications
  • Real-time decision making

Custom model development

We don't rely solely on pre-trained models. OFEP builds custom machine learning models trained specifically for your use case, detecting behaviors, objects, or conditions unique to your operational environment.

Advantages of offline AI

Our edge AI approach delivers significant benefits:

Easy deployment

No internet or WiFi integration required, eliminating authentication complexities, network security concerns, and connectivity dependencies. Deploy anywhere, even in challenging RF environments.

Sovereignty & privacy

All data processing occurs locally. No information transmitted to third parties or cloud services. Complete control over sensitive operational data and compliance with strict data protection requirements.

Reliability

No dependency on internet connectivity, cloud service availability, or external API uptime. Systems continue operating during network outages.

Low latency

Immediate processing and response without network round-trip delays, critical for real-time applications and safety systems.

Low cost

No ongoing subscription fees, expensive cloud computing charges, or massive GPU infrastructure. Once deployed, systems operate independently with minimal operational costs.
