Choose your entry point.
From free fundamentals to full enablement for your team. Every track ends in concrete action.
Open Track
The basics of flow engineering: WIP, throughput, lead time, queues and variability. A common language for your team.
Advanced Industrial AI
Specialized modules on AI applied to manufacturing: visibility, optimization, documentation, data analysis and industrial assistants.
Academy for Business
Training for industrial teams + an executive session to prioritize AI opportunities on the shop floor, in your data or in the back office.
🏭 Gemba Walk, in-depth diagnostics and pilots are quoted separately.
Not sure which one to pick?
5 modules. One story.
Each module answers a real operational question. Complete them all to earn the full certification.
Why do we start with physical labels?
Physical Flow Adoption
Onboarding module for customers in a pilot. Learn to sync the physical shop floor with the digital one through QR codes, zones and actions.
Why doesn't my plant flow?
Flow Fundamentals
Production control with Factory Physics. Little's Law, Kingman, WIP, throughput and the science behind operational chaos.
How do I see what happens at every node?
AI Plant Visibility
Data capture and interpretation at every production node. Turn shop-floor signals into actionable information with artificial intelligence.
How do I reduce variability?
AI Process Optimization
Surrogate models and design of experiments to cut variability. Digital twins that test scenarios without stopping the line.
How do I control the office's invisible flow?
Industrial Office Flow
Lean Office, AVSM, records management, tax materiality and document AI applied to the processes and case files that hold the plant together.
How do I scale operational intelligence?
Industrial AI Assistants
Cognitive assistant architecture: prompting, ReAct, multi-agent, skills, Human-in-the-Loop and the Industrial Decision Memo.
Micro-certs per module.

PATOK ACADEMY · MASTER BADGE
In collaboration with
Sociedad Mexicana de Materiales
The Industrial AI modules are developed together with the SMM as part of its continuing education program.
Start with Module 1.
Flow Fundamentals takes you from understanding the problem to implementing flow control. All you need is the will to improve your plant.
