SODA (Sona Digital Analytics) is a term coined by our CEO, Mr. Thyagu Valliappa. It is a term coined after careful consideration of the evolution of digital processes — the practicing of process engineering, process automation, robotic process automation for software-based repetitive tasks, semi-automation with mechanization using sensors, and many more — in the 100+ years of legacy business with four generations of entrepreneurs from the Sona Family.
The SODA team believes that any process can be reengineered based on the outcomes we expect; any process can be automated based on the repetitive tasks & complex tasks that we come across as a routine. When this process is automated with software in the backend, it becomes robotic process automation. These scenarios are quite evident in industries where all the stages can be visualized and relative & relevant processes can be automated without disturbing the workflow. However, this will be achieved by a sure & steady improvement of productivity and a reduction in the non-value added areas and operation costs. The end results are savings in time, money & effort, and thereby a direct increase in profitability. We call it the ARM (Automation, Robotics & Mechanization) Process of SODA.
The SODA team has many projects to its credit wherein the clients have saved immensely due to process reengineering & automation methodologies. One such accomplishment was the construction project executed for Bosch Rexroth. This project was executed in 120 days flat — a record time in the history of the construction industry. This was possible due to our expertise in process reengineering, ARM, data analytics, digital transformation using lean methods, 5S, process audits, and many other innovative techniques and technologies.
SODA is empowered by an astute team ably guided & directed by our CEO to take up any problems that any establishment or industry might have. We happily use the tagline, “Your problem, our challenge”. By understanding the pain points of our clients, we diligently break up the stages of operations and then fabricate an apt solution which is built on the concept of EODB (Ease of Doing Business). The digital landscape not only solves the problem that the client has. but also contributes to the reduction in pen & paperwork, which is the larger objective of SODA.
With India heading for global leadership in digital transformation, SODA surely plays a very small but pivotal role in this direction to enable solutions that are competitive. They can be easily used by anyone irrespective of their technical prowess, in real-time, with 24/7 access anywhere. These solutions are ideally suited for businesses ranging from MSMEs to large corporations to reap the benefits. All our solutions are outcome-based with customized goals to achieve.
The SODA team has built a culture of asking for more when it comes to projects and has become habituated to taking on challenges upfront. The team brims with confidence & assimilates the best talent in the industry. It also breeds young minds from academia that come up with disruptive ideas to solve the most complex problems of today and tomorrow.
By identifying areas for improvement, audits, assessments, and analytics can help businesses to optimise their technology operations, reducing costs and improving productivity
3As, as it is called, is very crucial to monitor the health of an organization. Our team takes stock of the systems & process already existing in line with the goals & objectives of the organization. Benchmarks are created to earmark milestones. The resultant factor is that the organization gets a fresh lease of life to function to the best of its ability.
If the 3As are repeated in periodic intervals with a clear objective, the organization will reach good levels of performance with higher productivity and lower cost of operation, with minimal or lowest wastage of time, money & efforts.
Our team of industry experts and the subject matter experts always feel that if we have the required checks & balances in place, and plan for your possible failures, nothing can stop us from achieving the expected outcomes. Our team has already worked on this aspect very thoroughly and used technology to bring in EWS in the system which forms the major part of predictive analytics.
Predictive analytics is similar to preventive medication in healthcare wherein one builds measures to curtail uncertainties, especially when it comes to the maintenance schedules of plant & machineries. Predictive analytics has the power to prevent major losses and damages to the organizations by giving early alerts like EWS or some valuable inputs that can be extremely helpful.
AI is the buzz word today, but there still is a lot of resistance from many industries and organizations to adopt AI into their DNA. One of the main reasons traced out by our experts for this trend is the lack of awareness about what benefits AI can bring to the table. Therefore, our experts conduct a deep in-depth discussion with core team of the organizations to make them aware and instill confidence in them before embarking on AI implementation.
The biggest benefit is that all the routine activities can be brought under AI to automate the process and run it accurately all the time — every time, 24/7 — without any fatigue or other factors associated with humans. It also reduces the dependency on labor which is a huge concern today. In certain organizations labor is easily optimized for multiple functions when AI is introduced, thereby controlling unnecessary costs without affecting the productivity.
We create a proper template to provide ample focus on each element of the 3Ps to ensure that the ultimate goal of achieving profit is embedded in the system. Right people with right job roles & experience, followed by the process of eliciting right action from the workers, achieve profitability.
Our team deep dives into each of these elements to create a sustainable model with clear bifurcation of layers of workforce, workflow & revenue generation.
Technical design engineering projects are carried out by a team of young and dynamic workforce under the leadership of subject matter experts and industry mentors who drive these projects for us. We can provide very competent solutions in the areas of design & development projects like NPD, 2D/3D drawings, Industry levels of skilling & training, etc. We can work with the entire complex range of value streams from some of the leading software platforms & suite of products available globally.

Raw data can be converted into meaningful information and compiled into valuable data that can be used for Data Mining, Analytics, Visualization, Storage, Restore, and Reuse multiple times.
Data according to our professional team is a profit-making tool for all top management. They use it for projecting, creating reports, pie charts, and presentations with facts & figures extracted from the available data. Our team uses the latest tools & techniques to churn out tons of data in a few seconds per the clients’ requirement sets.

Automation, Robotics & Mechanization is key in developing industries of today — especially the MSME sector. Very few industries have been able to adopt the Industry 4.0. Many industries are still in the Industry 2.0, which is the mechanization stage.
Our team’s approach is that a study on the present stage of industrialization is very crucial to adopt the necessary strategies and only provide with the compatible solution to upgrade to the next level. Mechanization stage can get upgraded slowly with low cost automation. The next stage would be introduction of robotics with AI/ML enabled followed by IoT solutions to connect & talk with machines seamlessly.
