Built for Your Team
Dawiso speaks the language of every stakeholder in your data governance program.
One catalog for every system in your plant and headquarters
You connect ERP, production, planning, IoT platforms, and BI tools in a single governed data catalog. Your teams see what data exists, who owns it, and where it came from.
One language for production and finance
Your plants call the same thing by different names. You define shared terms in the business glossary and link them to technical metadata. Engineers in Stuttgart and analysts in Prague work from the same definitions.
Show the board what your data team delivers
You package governed datasets as data products that business teams find and trust. Management asks what the data team does? You point to a catalog of delivered assets with owners and quality scores.
Proven Use Cases in Manufacturing
From multi-plant data catalogs to compliance documentation — here is how manufacturers use Dawiso every day.
One Definition of OEE, Scrap, and Downtime Across All Plants
Plant A counts micro-stops as downtime. Plant B does not. Your group report blends both and nobody trusts the number. You lock down shared KPI definitions in the business glossary, from OEE and FPY to scrap categories and waste codes, and link them to the actual columns in each plant's ERP and MES.
Production KPIs Without Filing a Ticket
Your plant manager checks OEE every morning. Today that means a ticket to the data team or a stale spreadsheet. You package production metrics as governed data products, OEE, yield, scrap, downtime, with clear owners and freshness guarantees. Business teams pull the numbers themselves.
Five Plants, Three ERPs, One Catalog
Each plant runs its own SAP instance or a different ERP. Data models diverge, field names conflict, reporting turns into manual reconciliation. You scan all instances into one data catalog with shared terminology and lineage. Every plant reports the same truth.
Govern AI Models on the Shop Floor
You run predictive maintenance and vision-based quality inspection, but who owns the input data? Where are the training logs? You catalog model metadata alongside data assets in Dawiso: inputs, outputs, versions, owners. Your EU AI Act audit trail sits in the same place as your data governance.
Why Manufacturers Choose Dawiso
Connect Everything in Weeks
Automated Data Lineage
Proven at Enterprise Scale
Trusted by Leading Manufacturing Organizations
From automotive OEMs to packaging manufacturers — Dawiso is deployed in production across the manufacturing sector.
Stora Enso
Global packaging and materials manufacturer. Runs a unified Dawiso catalog across Snowflake, dbt, and Power BI (Microsoft Fabric).
P3 Logistic Parks
European logistics real estate developer. Replaced spreadsheet-based documentation with a governed data catalog in 78 days.

Why Now: The Regulatory Pressure Is Real
Manufacturers face overlapping data governance requirements across quality, privacy, and AI. Dawiso helps you address them from a single platform.
Data lineage maps where employee, customer, and supplier data sits and how it flows across your systems.
In effect from 2025. If you use AI in quality control, predictive maintenance, or supply chain optimization, you must document model inputs, outputs, and governance controls.
Automotive quality management standard requiring traceability and documented data processes. Dawiso provides audit-ready lineage and ownership records.
Quality management certification requiring documented processes and data traceability. Dawiso maintains a full change history and approval workflow for all governed data assets.
Key Capabilities for Manufacturing
Automated Metadata Scanning
Discover and catalog metadata from ERP, production, planning, IoT historians, data warehouses, and BI tools. 40+ connectors scan your systems on a schedule and keep the catalog current as your architecture evolves.
Business Glossary for Multi-Plant Operations
Define shared business terms for production KPIs, quality metrics, and supply chain concepts. Link each term to the technical columns and tables behind it, so engineers in Stuttgart and analysts in Prague work from the same definitions.
Column-Level Data Lineage
Trace data flows from production sensors through ETL pipelines to management dashboards. Auto-generated from SQL code via Dawiso's SQL Parser. No manual documentation required.
AI & Model Governance
Document and govern AI models used in predictive maintenance, quality control, and demand forecasting. Track model inputs, outputs, versions, and data dependencies to meet EU AI Act requirements.
Compliance & Audit Trail
Complete change history for all governed data assets — who changed what and when. Approval workflows with data owner, steward, and custodian roles. Ready for GDPR, IATF 16949, ISO 9001, and EU AI Act audits.
Connects to Your Existing Data Stack
40+ connectors out of the box. From legacy Oracle databases to modern Databricks lakehouses — and we add new ones monthly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Dawiso integrate with ERP and production systems?
Dawiso connects to 40+ data sources including SAP S/4HANA, Snowflake, Databricks, Power BI, Oracle, SQL Server, Tableau, and dbt. For production and planning systems with no native connector, our REST API and MCP server enable custom integrations. See the full connector list on our Connectors page.
How long does implementation take for a manufacturing company?
Most manufacturing customers go live with a working catalog in weeks, depending on the number of data sources. P3 Logistic Parks went from zero to a comprehensive data governance platform in 78 days. Automated metadata scanning eliminates most manual work, and the SQL Parser generates lineage from existing code without custom development.
Can Dawiso handle multi-plant, multi-country deployments?
Yes. Dawiso is deployed at enterprise manufacturers with operations across multiple countries and hundreds of users. The platform supports multilingual interfaces, role-based access control per plant or domain, and scales to hundreds of thousands of scanned objects without performance degradation.
How does Dawiso support IATF 16949 and ISO 9001 compliance?
Dawiso maintains a complete audit trail of all changes to data assets — who changed what and when. Approval workflows enforce governance processes before changes take effect. Data lineage documents the traceability chain from source to report. These records are available on demand for quality audits and certification reviews.
Can Dawiso govern AI models used in manufacturing?
Yes. Dawiso catalogs AI and ML models alongside data assets — documenting model inputs, outputs, versions, training data, and owners. This supports EU AI Act compliance for high-risk AI systems used in quality control, predictive maintenance, and demand forecasting. Model governance in Dawiso works through the same catalog and lineage framework as your data assets.
What deployment options are available?
Dawiso is available as SaaS, on-premise, and hybrid with full feature parity. Manufacturers with data sovereignty requirements or air-gapped environments run Dawiso fully on-premise. Enterprise authentication via Azure AD, LDAP, and SAML is fully supported.
How is Dawiso priced?
Dawiso is priced per user, not per data source or scanned object. You can roll out governance to every team in your organization without per-connector or per-asset fees. See our pricing page or book a demo for a quote tailored to your organization size.
