Manufacturing

Connect the shop floor to the office without another mismatched ERP.

Quotes, jobs, materials and despatch often live in different worlds. We build systems around how you actually make things — not how a vendor assumed you would.

How the work usually breaks

Familiar pain. Different labels on the folders.

01

The job card lies

Paper or spreadsheet job status never matches what’s on the bench. Planning is guesswork.

02

Materials and labour don’t meet

Buying, kitting and time capture sit in separate tools. Margin only appears when it’s too late.

03

ERP was meant to fix it

You bought seats for a system that still needs Excel to ship a real order.

What we typically replace

The rented and improvised layer.

  • Job packs and Excel trackers as the real system of record
  • Legacy Access / VB tools only one person understands
  • Heavy ERP modules you never fully implemented
What we build

Software you own, shaped to the work.

  • Job scheduling and status that reflect the floor
  • BoM / materials flows tied to real work
  • Quotes that become jobs without re-keying
  • Reporting finance can trust without a week of scrubbing
