Manufacturing
The floor knows. The office finds out on Friday.
Production is running, jobs are moving, material is being consumed. All of it is written on paper first and entered later, so every answer you give a customer is a day or two old.
What actually costs you
Job status is a phone call
A customer asks where their order is. Someone walks to the floor to find out.
Production records are entered twice
Written on a sheet at the machine, typed into the system that evening, and the two do not always agree.
Material usage is known too late
Scrap and overuse show up in the month-end count, long after the job that caused them.
QC lives in a folder
The record exists, but finding the one from March means opening a cabinet.
What we build
Capture at the machine
Operators record output, downtime and scrap where they stand, on a screen built for gloves and a hurry.
Job status anyone can read
One view of where every job is, current enough that sales can answer without walking anywhere.
Material use against the job
Consumption tied to the work order as it happens, so variance surfaces the same day.
Records that answer questions
QC and traceability held so an audit or a customer complaint is a search, not an afternoon.
A Tuesday
A customer calls at eleven asking whether their order ships this week. Sales cannot say, so they promise to call back, walk to the floor, find the supervisor, and get an answer that is right until the next machine stops. Handled: the job's stage was recorded at the machine when it changed, so sales answers on the call, and the one job that is genuinely behind was flagged the day it slipped rather than the day it was due.
Do we have to replace our ERP?
No. Most of this sits alongside what you run and feeds it. Working out what connects cleanly is part of the Evaluation.
Our operators are not office people.
That is an argument for building it around them. Capture screens are built for the floor: few fields, large targets, and no typing where a scan or a tap will do.
Is this worth it at our size?
Sometimes not, and we will tell you in writing. If the answer is that a spreadsheet and a rule would fix it, that is what the Evaluation should say.
All industries
Distribution
Order to invoice, stock across branches, and customer-specific pricing, without the retyping between them.
Logistics
Consignment status, proof of delivery and driver admin, captured on the road and visible without a phone call.
F&B
Order intake across every channel, into one list your team and your accounts both trust.
Retail and e-commerce
Stock, order status and customer enquiries, answered from your own systems instead of a person checking four screens.
Clinics and wellness
Scheduling, reminders and follow-ups, with patient records staying in your own database.
Professional services
Client intake, qualification and document drafting, working from your own templates and precedents.
