Industrial-Grade Identity Governance and Access Management: Protect Your Workforce, Systems, and Supply Chain at Scale
Fischer Identity proudly serves the manufacturing sector with a best-in-class Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) and Identity and Access Management (IAM) platform that addresses the industry’s unique identity challenges. Manufacturers face increasing pressure to secure sensitive data, manage complex access scenarios, and meet regulatory demands across global operations. From supply chain visibility to safeguarding intellectual property, strong identity security is essential for protecting systems and ensuring only the right individuals access the right resources at the right time.
As manufacturing environments become more connected and digitally advanced, identity and access management plays a critical role in securing both legacy and modern infrastructure. Fischer Identity offers a no-code, fully configurable SaaS solution that provides full support for on-premises and cloud integrations, enabling streamlined onboarding, automated lifecycle management, and comprehensive governance. With our decades of expertise and scalable architecture, we deliver seamless identity solutions that improve security, reduce risk, and increase operational efficiency across diverse and distributed manufacturing organizations.Why Identity Governance Matters in Manufacturing
Modern manufacturers must protect a diverse range of systems and data. From production equipment to ERP platforms, inventory systems, SCADA/MES environments, and partner integrations, identity security is essential. Without centralized identity governance, risks like over-provisioning, delayed deprovisioning, access sprawl, and audit failures become harder to avoid.
Challenges We Help Solve:
- Fragmented identity systems across global and legacy environments
- High turnover among the non-employee third-party persona’s such as, contractors, seasonal workers, and vendors
- Multi-role personas with evolving responsibilities
- Manual audits that fail to meet ISO, NIST, CMMC, or other security frameworks
- Limited IT support at distributed or remote facilities
- Integration with both modern cloud and legacy on-prem systems
- Suppliers, contractors, and equipment vendors often require system access, and managing that access lifecycle is a key supply chain risk.
- Role-based access tied to safety certifications, shift schedules, and physical access systems (badging) adds another layer of identity complexity in manufacturing.
Why Manufacturers Choose Fischer Identity
Fischer Identity offers a modern, scalable platform with a consistent architecture across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid deployments. Our solution supports workforce, non-employee third-party, and service identities, and provides full lifecycle management from onboarding to deprovisioning.
Centralized Identity Lifecycle Management
- We provide automated, policy-based identity management across information technology and operational technology environments. No coding is required.
Example: Automatically grant location-specific access to contractors during onboarding, with built-in expiration dates.
Role-Based, Attribute-Based, and Policy-Based Access Controls
- Our platform fully supports dynamic access control using all three models—RBAC, ABAC, and PBAC—to align access with business context while preventing role bloat. Dynamic policies adapt access permissions in real time based on identity attributes, system context, and defined policies.
Example: Grant or revoke ERP/MES systems access dynamically based on real-time changes to a worker’s department, shift, or location.
Contractor and Third-Party Identity Management
- Fischer Identity provides full onboarding, lifecycle management, and governance for non-employee identities—including contractors, vendors, and partner personnel. These identities are managed with the same security, policy, and compliance standards as employees.
Example: Automatically provision a vendor account with time-bound access and policy-based approval workflows, while maintaining a full audit trail.
Compliance and Reporting Automation
- Fischer simplifies compliance for ISO 27001, NIST 800-171, CMMC, GDPR, HIPAA, and more. We support access reviews, audit trails, SoD enforcement, and real-time certification campaigns.
Example: Generate real-time access review reports for internal systems and third-party users across all facilities.
Integration Across Legacy and Modern Systems
- Fischer Identity offers 110+ native connectors with full support for both on-premise and cloud-based applications. We integrate seamlessly with ERP, MES, SCADA, Active Directory, Workday, SAP, Oracle HCM, and more.
Example: Connect to on-premise manufacturing control systems and modern SaaS ERP platforms without custom coding or third-party middleware.
No-Code Configuration and Fast Deployment
- Our no-code platform allows your team to configure policies, workflows, and access rules without developer support.
Example: Business Analyst can initiate access reviews or provisioning without IT involvement.
