BOSTON, Feb. 11, 2026 — Flexxbotics, the autonomous manufacturing platform leader, announced expanded capabilities enabling companies running SAP to achieve new levels of production autonomy through Autonomous Process Control (APC). By extending SAP environments with standardized autonomous manufacturing software, Flexxbotics enables closed-loop automation capable of adjusting production processes in real-time based on inspection, test and sensor feedback.
Flexxbotics’ approach directly connects plant assets, automation, robots, inspection systems and sensors into SAP-driven production workflows — transforming traditionally siloed automation cells into fully orchestrated, enterprise-connected systems for autonomous manufacturing. The result is precision quality, higher yields, improved compliance and scalable “lights-out” production across complex factory environments.
“Increasing manufacturing autonomy requires more than conventional hardware automation — it demands closed-loop digitalization that unifies SAP with machines, robots and real-time quality feedback,” said Tyler Bouchard, CEO and co-founder of Flexxbotics. “By extending SAP with Autonomous Process Control, companies can finally scale automation in a standardized and sustainable way to improve throughput, quality and profitability.”
Enabling closed-loop autonomy with SAP
Flexxbotics works securely with SAP S/4HANA and SAP Digital Manufacturing, as well as older ECC environments, to operationalize fully automated production with:
- Bi-directional controller interoperability across machines, PLCs, robots, inspection systems, sensors and other factory assets
- Orchestration of multi-machine automated production lines and cells driven by SAP
- Real-time closed-loop process adjustments driven by inspection and test feedback
- Contextualized production data capture for compliance, genealogy, SPC and Industrial AI data sets for training and inference
This standardized approach replaces costly one-off, point-to-point integrations and custom cell programming that have historically limited automation scalability and created data silos outside the enterprise IT architecture.
Companies using Autonomous Process Control with Flexxbotics Report:
- Defect reductions exceeding 30%
- Yield improvements of 25–45%
- Improved throughput and faster cycle times
- Cost of Quality reductions of 20% or greater
- Increased EBITDA margins
New white paper available
Flexxbotics has published a new white paper - Attaining New Levels of Manufacturing Autonomy through Autonomous Process Control for Companies Running SAP - which details the APC framework, SAP production data flow architecture, implementation best practices and business outcomes across regulated and high-precision industries including aerospace, defense, semiconductors, automotive and life sciences.
The paper outlines how standardized autonomous manufacturing platforms enable closed-loop control in production and form the foundation for factory AI-driven initiatives. Download the paper here.
