Ksoft Technologies provides Lyon-based manufacturers with world-class legacy software migration and workflow automation. We help mid-market firms in France's largest industrial center replace brittle Excel-led operations and aging ERP systems with secure, automated platforms — so your production data can keep pace with Lyon's fast-moving supply chains in chemicals, pharma, and automotive.
The Lyon Manufacturing Landscape
Lyon is the undisputed industrial capital of France and the second-largest manufacturing economy after Paris. The city is home to the Chemical Valley (Vallee de la Chimie) along the Rhone, Lyonbiopole's pharmaceutical and biotech cluster in Gerland, and major automotive suppliers serving Renault Trucks and Stellantis. This multi-sector industrial density means that legacy software used by one firm in a supply chain creates bottlenecks that cascade through dozens of connected businesses.
Modernizing France's largest industrial center
From the Chemical Valley to the Gerland biotech district, Lyon is a global industrial leader. Yet many mid-market manufacturers still manage their operations using legacy desktop tools and fragmented Excel files that cannot exchange data with modern OEM portals or regulatory platforms. Ksoft replaces these bottlenecks with secure, automated workflows that provide real-time visibility across your entire production operation.
Tailored solutions for a diverse industrial economy
Whether you are in chemical production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, or automotive assembly supply, your software needs to be as robust as your factory floor. We help Lyon-based owners and plant managers migrate sensitive data safely and automate manual processes — allowing you to scale without adding administrative overhead or compliance risk.
Our focus for Lyon's industry
- Chemicals & Pharma: Automating GMP-compliant batch tracking and compliance logs for Axelera and Lyonbiopole members

Local ecosystem & modernization context
Lyon's industrial density is unmatched outside Paris. A legacy software failure in one mid-market chemical firm can cascade through dozens of connected suppliers and distributors across the Rhone Valley. This interconnectedness makes modernization urgent and also makes it possible: once one firm in a cluster upgrades to API-connected systems, the pressure on neighboring suppliers to modernize accelerates significantly.

Can Ksoft handle legacy migration for chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturers in Lyon's Vallee de la Chimie?
Yes. We have deep experience in migrating batch management, compliance logging, and quality control workflows for chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturers. All data handling meets GDPR and GMP requirements, and projects are delivered under strict NDA.
Does Ksoft support automotive tier-1 and tier-2 suppliers in the Lyon region with ERP modernization?
Absolutely. We help automotive suppliers modernize their production scheduling, parts tracking, and supplier portal integrations — replacing the aging desktop ERP tools that can no longer communicate with OEM digital supply chain platforms.
How does Ksoft approach legacy migration for biotech manufacturers in Lyonbiopole?
We map all lab-to-production data flows first, then build a migration plan that preserves research data integrity while automating the handoffs between R&D, QA, and manufacturing. The result is a single compliant platform replacing multiple disconnected tools.
