What Odyssey VC does

Odyssey VC, now operating as Orise following a March 2025 rebrand, is a privately held industrial automation and digitalization services company headquartered in Sallins, Co. Kildare, Ireland, founded in 2015. The company delivers system-agnostic automation, digitalization, and optimization services for regulated manufacturing environments, with deep specialization in GxP-compliant life sciences (pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, nutraceuticals, medical devices) and additional exposure to food & beverage, chemicals, energy & resources, and discrete manufacturing. Its product portfolio spans a GxP digital product suite (GxP Logbook, Audit Trail Review, GxP Data Integrity, GxP Machine Integration Manager, GxP Report Generator, Compliant Cloud Platform, eStreams), a Manufacturing AI suite (Anomaly Detection, Micro-Stop Detection, Asset Health Monitoring, Control Performance Degradation Detection, Computer Vision, Virtual Sensor, MPC Platform, PID Optimizer), and a portfolio of SAP Add-Ons (Manufacturing, Shipping, Warehouse, Project, and Workflow Managers). The company also delivers SAP S/4HANA implementation, IT/OT convergence, MES integration for life sciences, and operational excellence consulting.

Orise generates revenue primarily through professional services and consulting engagements, including operational excellence consulting, SAP consulting, digital transformation, engineering services, and full-lifecycle system integration, complemented by licensed digital products and SAP add-ons. The go-to-market is a sales-led, direct enterprise model with global delivery paired with local on-the-ground support, targeting regulated industrial clients via quote-based multi-year engagements. Following the 2023 acquisition by Process Automation Solutions and the March 2025 unification of Odyssey VC, Process Automation Solutions, and 11 other associated member companies under the Orise brand, the entity now operates as part of a larger 12-company industrial automation platform that retains its existing legal structure while consolidating brand, marketing, and go-to-market. ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications underpin quality and environmental management claims. Andrius Ramanauskas serves as Managing Director of the rebranded entity.
