About & Contact
Built by people who have held the role, not a sales team
SourceGround is run by a senior IT/OT lead and former Local Information Security Officer from a Tier-1 automotive supplier. Automations are built with the same discipline as plant systems: documented, monitored and secure, with a lead IATF 16949 auditor available for quality-system work.
Founder
The founder has led IT and OT at a Tier-1 automotive supplier site: MES and ERP operations, plant networks and machine connectivity. As the site’s LISO, the founder took it through TISAX assessment under an IATF 16949 quality system. SourceGround applies that experience to automation and AI for growing businesses: workflows that run every day, connect to real systems and can be audited. Employer-specific and NDA-covered details are not disclosed.

Working Principles
How engagements are run
Six rules that apply to every engagement, from the first scoping call to monthly support.
01
Scope in writing first
Processes, systems and price are fixed in a written scope before any build starts.
02
Measured, not promised
Every automation has a before and after: hours, errors or response time, measured on your data.
03
Production comes first
Changes are planned around shifts and maintenance windows. Nothing is switched off without the plant’s agreement.
04
One person, end to end
The person who designs the workflow builds it and supports it.
05
No client names published
References are given directly, under NDA, when a prospective client asks for them.
06
Security built in
Access rights, data handling and logs are defined before the first workflow runs.
Contact
Direct contact, no intake process
Include the company, the process you want to automate and the tools you use. A written reply follows within two working days. A short scheduling call can be arranged from there.
