Manufacturing

Brametal, founded in 1975 in Criciúma (SC) and with units in São Paulo (SP) and Linhares (ES), began its activities in the civil construction sector and, over the decades, consolidated itself as one of the largest manufacturers of metal structures in the Americas.

Today, the company serves the sectors of electricity generation and transmission, telecommunications and, more recently, renewable energy, offering solutions such as Lattice Towers for Wind Generators, Supports for Photovoltaic Panels and Monotube Metal Towers. It has also expanded its operations to the Public Lighting market.

With revenues exceeding R$1 billion and a production capacity of 200 thousand tons per year, Brametal is undergoing expansion and technological review.

The challenges

Prior to adopting Digibee, Brametal faced critical challenges related to systems integration and operational efficiency:

• Need for an iPaaS as an official integrator to facilitate communication between the different systems;
• Low visibility of errors in the operation, impacting management and decision-making;
• Long time-to-market for new integrations, making scalability difficult;
• High costs with complex and inflexible integrations.

The solution

Digibee was chosen due to the trusting relationship established throughout the discovery process, proof of concepts (POCs) and negotiation. The platform stood out from its competitors in technical, commercial, performance, support and service aspects, both pre- and post-sales.

The Technical Onboarding process was completed in just 30 days, ensuring a fast and efficient alignment. During this phase, the Digibee team worked side by side with Brametal to ensure a smooth and secure transition. In addition to the technical alignment, Brametal now has a more structured vision of governance and information security, aspects that are fundamental to the success of the projects.

Another relevant point was the migration from the traditional VPN to the Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) model, which provided greater security, reduced the risk of breaches and improved the user experience by offering more efficient and continuous remote access.

Proofs of concept

Proofs of concept were essential to validate the solution:

1. POC 1 – Protheus <> Nimbi Integration: This project brought greater automation and efficiency to internal processes, reducing response time and improving connectivity between systems.
2. POC 2 – Salesforce <> Jira Integration: Currently underway, this initiative aims to optimize the workflow of engineering teams, ensuring greater traceability and synchronization between technical and operational demands.

In addition, Brametal invested in training its teams through the Digibee Academy, ensuring that its team had the autonomy to develop new integration flows with the platform.

The results

Early impacts of adopting Digibee include:

• Significant reduction in onboarding time for new systems, simplifying integration projects;
• Greater visibility at each stage of the integration flows, allowing proactive monitoring and management;
• Implementation of effective alerts to quickly identify and resolve errors in operations;
• Automatic reprocessing for operational failures, ensuring greater process continuity and reliability;
• Greater security and control over remote access with the implementation of the ZTNA model.

Next steps

With the adoption of Digibee, Brametal structured a strategic roadmap for the coming years (2025/2026), including:

• Extracting data from ERP for advanced analysis and faster decision-making;
• ERP integration with satellite systems;
• Reassessment of integrations;
• AD-based user deactivation automation for other SaaS platforms;
• Implementation of an error monitoring system in Jira, allowing the IT team to receive notifications and act quickly to resolve incidents.

By partnering with Digibee, Brametal is accelerating its digital transformation, ensuring secure, agile and scalable integrations to support its growth and continuous innovation.
