Operational Systems Design

Transforming manual processes into digital systems.

We help manufacturing teams and growing businesses move away from whiteboards, paper trackers, and fragmented spreadsheets. Gain operational confidence with simple systems that show you exactly what is happening right now.

Is this your current reality?

If you recognize these friction points, your operation has outgrown manual tracking.

The "Pulse Walk" Update

"I don't actually know the status until I walk the floor and ask someone."

The Morning Scramble

Production meetings are spent explaining yesterday's data instead of planning today's work.

The Excel Silo

Key operational knowledge is locked in one person's spreadsheet (or head).

Where we fit best

We specialize in high-flow, physical operations where off-the-shelf software rarely fits.

Manufacturing

Production lines, assembly cells, and machine shops requiring job tracking and status visibility.

Warehousing

Inventory movement, picking flows, and dispatch tracking where standard software is too slow or rigid.

Process Operations

Any environment relying on shift handovers, complex checklists, or manual compliance logging.

How we work

A pragmatic approach to operational clarity. Built for real operations.

1. Understand the process

We don't guess. We map your actual workflow to identify bottlenecks and "hidden" work.

2. Design only what’s needed

We design only what adds value — solving specific problems without adding unnecessary admin.

3. Build systems people use

The best system is one your team actually adopts. Usability and simplicity come first.

Before ClearPath

  • Status updates rely on pulse walks
  • Shift handovers lose context
  • Data lives in whiteboards, paper trackers or Excel
  • Decisions are reactive

After ClearPath

  • Live view of work in progress
  • Clean shift handovers with history
  • One source of operational data
  • Confident, proactive decisions

What you actually get

We don't deliver presentations. We deliver systems.

Live operational dashboards tailored to your workflow
Digital replacement for whiteboards and paper trackers
Clear shift handovers with historical context
Real-time visibility of work, queues, and bottlenecks
Simple systems your team can maintain without IT

Built by someone who has lived inside operations.

ClearPath was not founded by software developers. It was founded through first-hand experience running complex shifts where whiteboards, paper trackers and verbal handovers were the primary tools.

That experience shaped a simple principle: software only creates value when the team uses it. ClearPath designs systems for the shop floor first, with management visibility built on top.

Winner 2025

Culture of Continuous Improvement (CI)
Idea of the Year

Awarded for the "Foundry Funnel Tracker" at Johnson & Johnson MedTech.

Proven in the Foundry Value Stream to eliminate manual counting errors and digitize shift handovers.

Why this works

Experience

Designed by someone who has run real shifts.

Reality

Built around physical workflows, not abstract processes.

Ownership

Owned and maintained by operations — not consultants.

We don't replace your core systems. We fill the gaps.

Most operations have "gaps" where big corporate software ends and manual paper-work begins. We build the specific, agile tools needed to bridge that gap—giving you visibility without the overhaul.

How pricing works

Every operation is different, so pricing is based on scope — not licences, seats, or generic packages.

Most engagements start by solving one clear operational problem, such as replacing a whiteboard or manual tracker.

If the system proves useful, it can grow — if not, it stops there. No long-term contracts. No forced rollouts.

Common Questions

Do you sell a specific software?

No. We are systems designers, not software vendors. We build the solution that fits your process using flexible platforms. You own the system, we just design and build it.

Will this disrupt our production?

We design for zero disruption. We typically build the new digital system in parallel while your current manual process keeps running. We only switch over when the team is ready.

Do we need an internal IT team?

No. We design systems specifically for operations teams to own. We focus on simplicity and maintainability so you aren't dependent on IT tickets for small changes.

How long does a project take?

Unlike traditional implementations that take years, our targeted systems are usually live in weeks. We focus on solving the immediate bottleneck first.

Ready to retire manual tracking?

You don't need a 6-month consulting contract. You just need a system that works.
