1 — The pitch Tactplan is developing a location-based scheduling and production control platform to help construction contractors solve the chronic problem of schedule chaos and workflow collisions on site — with a purpose-built planning method that combines Takt Time Planning, real-time progress tracking, and actionable production alarms into one connected tool. 2 — The what Construction projects don't fail because people stop trying. They fail because no one can see what's actually happening — until it's too late. The construction industry is one of the least productive sectors in the developed world, and the root cause is hiding in plain sight: scheduling. Traditional Gantt-based project plans are disconnected from the physical reality of building. They don't reflect how work actually flows through a building — floor by floor, zone by zone, trade by trade. The result is trades colliding, buffers eroding, foremen firefighting, and project managers spending their days in status meetings instead of solving real problems. This isn't a niche problem. It affects virtually every multi-trade construction project, from residential developments to hospitals and infrastructure — representing hundreds of billions of euros in lost productivity annually across Europe alone. 3 — The how Tactplan replaces the Gantt chart with a location-based schedule — a plan structured around where work happens, not just when. Using Takt Time Planning principles, project teams define a steady production rhythm across locations: the right trade in the right place at the right time, with no overlaps and no idle zones. The schedule becomes a live production system. As work progresses, Tactplan captures actual production rates, detects deviations early, and surfaces prioritised alarms so planners and site managers know exactly what to act on. Instead of a plan that gets outdated the moment it's printed, teams get a continuously valid picture of their project — with the tools to keep production moving and catch problems days before they become delays. 4 — The why The construction industry has tools for everything except the thing that matters most: keeping work flowing. The team behind Tactplan comes from civil engineering and construction project management. They've experienced firsthand the frustration of planning systems that look sophisticated on paper but fall apart on site — schedules that no one trusts, updates that never happen, and meetings where everyone knows there's a problem but nobody has the data to act on it. Location-based scheduling and Takt Time Planning have strong academic and practical evidence behind them, but the tooling has never matched the method. Tactplan exists to close that gap — to give construction teams a planning tool that actually reflects how buildings are built, and to make flow-based production control the new standard for the industry.

Auxilium Infrastructure Partners develops, owns, and operates flexible energy assets that help stabilize the electricity grid while creating new revenue streams for industrial sites and asset owners. The electricity system is becoming increasingly volatile as more wind and solar power enter the grid. This creates a growing need for fast, reliable flexibility: assets that can consume, store, or release power when the grid needs support. Today, many industrial sites have unused grid capacity, heat demand, backup systems, or space for batteries, but lack the technical platform, market access, and operational expertise needed to turn that flexibility into revenue. Auxilium solves this by combining physical energy infrastructure with proprietary software. We deploy and operate assets such as battery energy storage systems, electric boilers, load banks, and other controllable loads. Our platform connects these assets to energy markets and ancillary service markets, allowing them to support grid stability, optimize power consumption, and generate income. We handle the full process from site assessment and technical design to installation, operation, market participation, monitoring, and optimization. This gives customers a simple way to monetize their grid connection or energy assets without needing to build their own trading, control, or compliance capabilities. Our mission is to accelerate the green transition by making distributed energy flexibility scalable, investable, and easy to deploy.

Teton is a care empowerment platform for senior living and healthcare operators. We use an in-room sensor and application layer to continuously understand residents, staff activity, and the care environment, then translate those signals into action for frontline care teams. Senior care operations are under structural pressure. Chronic staffing shortages, rising resident acuity, and inconsistent observational data have left care teams flying blind between documented events. Most existing tools simply record what already happened, and that is no longer sufficient. When teams are stretched, they need earlier signal, faster response, and more consistent decision-making, not another retrospective report. Teton exists to close the decision gap between observation and action. The shift we are making is from a reactive model of documentation, isolated alerts, manual interpretation, and delayed intervention, to a proactive one built on earlier signal, workflow-aligned insight, and faster, more consistent action. Our direct user is the care team, and resident and family outcomes improve because staff decisions improve. What sets us apart is that we lead with outcomes and let the technology serve them, not the other way around. We provide continuous visibility that surfaces risk before situations escalate. We fit into existing care workflows without adding new steps. We use longitudinal behavioral and health signals like movement, gait, sleep, and routine patterns to enable individualized, preventative care rather than one-size-fits-all responses. And we deliver community-level operational clarity from consistent in-room data, supporting accountability without resorting to surveillance or long-buffer video watching. Importantly, Teton is not a fall detection product, a single-event alerting system, or a retrospective dashboard. Those tools address fragments of the problem. We address the whole gap. The reason this matters is that when care teams can see risk sooner and act earlier, the impact compounds. Operators see stronger resident retention through more consistent and individualized care, lower incident-related costs by reducing preventable falls and hospitalizations, improved staffing efficiency by removing manual observation and rounding burden, and greater operational predictability across shifts, teams, and communities. Care quality stops depending on which staff member or which shift happens to be working. Our north star is simple: Teton empowers care teams to stay one step ahead, so operators can deliver better outcomes and run more predictable businesses. Stay Ahead. Care Ahead.
