"I have unique knowledge/experience about how a variety of industrial equipment and computer systems communicate, and how the software to allow them to communicate should be designed."

If it's easy to use, they will solve their problems faster. I work at a mid-cap ERP company in the Midwest, I'd be interested in hearing more about your software.
