Conduktor Partners with LHP to Bring Kafka Governance to Automotive and Aerospace Manufacturing

Manufacturers rely on streaming data for predictive maintenance, digital twins, quality control, and testing. Most struggle to operationalize it. Fragmented infrastructure, security vulnerabilities, and poor data quality block progress.

Without governed, trusted real-time data, AI, analytics, and IIoT use cases stall. Models underperform. Insights stay locked in data pipelines.

Conduktor is partnering with LHP Engineering Solutions, a solutions integrator and technology provider serving automotive and aerospace manufacturers.

Why This Partnership Matters for Industrial Data

Founded in 2001, LHP helps OEMs implement best practices for safety, testing, cybersecurity, data analytics, and recruiting. LHP works with customers on emerging technologies including electric and autonomous vehicles, and integrates new tools into existing tech stacks.

Through this partnership, automotive and aerospace OEMs get Conduktor's data hub paired with LHP's specialized products and technical support. Customers can:

• Securely manage Kafka data infrastructure
• Use a unified, vendor-agnostic experience without lock-in
• Ensure availability, trustworthiness, and compliance of real-time data
• Accelerate time-to-value for AI, analytics, IoT, and decision-making

What Conduktor Provides

Conduktor helps platform and engineering teams unlock value from real-time data through an enterprise-grade data hub:

• Conduktor Shield: Secure Kafka data across factory and cloud environments with encryption, standardization, chaos testing, and failover.
• Conduktor Scale: Tools for engineering teams to explore, manage, and govern Kafka data with visibility and compliance at scale.
• Conduktor Exchange: Share Kafka data with external partners (contractors, vendors, suppliers) and customers to improve operational efficiencies and unlock new revenue.
• Conduktor Trust: Block inconsistent or misformatted data from infecting downstream applications like AI, analytics, and digital twins.

"The Conduktor team is excited to partner with LHP Engineering Solutions to support global manufacturers looking to innovate with their real-time data," says Matthew Scott, Conduktor's Head of Strategic Partnerships and Channels. "Our goal at Conduktor is to bring professional services and software partnerships to the market that align with our customers' strategic goals.

"LHP brings deep software engineering expertise in manufacturing, helping customers gain a competitive edge and innovate at scale. Combined with Conduktor's governance hub for securing, validating, and governing streaming data, we are thrilled to support joint customer demand and success."

Track Record in Manufacturing

Conduktor supports manufacturers including Airbus, AGCO, Honda America, Siemens, and other large automotive and aerospace organizations worldwide.

"This partnership with Conduktor represents a major leap forward in our mission to deliver next-generation, data-first solutions to industrial clients," says James Roberts, LHP's President. "We're excited to integrate Conduktor's Kafka-native technology into our IoT ecosystem. This collaboration enhances how users collect, visualize, and act on data across their enterprise securely, in real time, and at scale."
