01
Demand and forecast
Confirmed orders and forecast form the demand plan instead of a separately maintained planning sheet.
Manufacturing ERP that matches what happens on the floor
Bills of material, routings, production orders and actual cost in one system, so planning and the shop floor stop working from different numbers.

What we hear
What we hear from manufacturing teams
The problems we hear most — and what changes once the system holds the process.
01
BOM drift
Versioned bills of material and routings, with change control, replace the shared spreadsheet.
02
Plans that ignore capacity
Machine and work-centre capacity is part of the schedule, not an afterthought.
03
Cost per unit unknown
Material, labour and overhead post against the production order, so actual versus standard cost is visible per run.
04
Traceability requests take days
Lot and serial tracking traces a batch from raw material to customer.
05
Scrap and rework unmeasured
Output, scrap and rework are captured as part of production reporting.
Capabilities
What we implement for manufacturing
Configured on standard platform capability wherever possible, extended only where your process genuinely differs.
Bills of material and routings
Versioned structures with change control and where-used visibility.
Production orders and shop-floor reporting
Output, consumption and time captured where the work happens.
Capacity and machine centres
Work-centre load balanced against the production schedule.
Material requirements planning
Demand, supply and lead time driving what to buy and make.
Lot, serial traceability and quality
Forward and backward trace with quality checks at each stage.
Production costing and variance dashboards
Actual versus standard cost by run, reported automatically.
Day in the operation
From sales order to costed output
Planning, purchasing and the shop floor working from one schedule and one set of numbers.
- Actual versus standard cost
- Per run
- Forward and backward lot trace
- Minutes
- Schedule balanced to work-centre load
- Capacity-aware
02
Planning run
MRP nets demand against stock, open purchase orders and work in progress, then proposes what to buy and what to make.
03
Purchase and receive
Raw material arrives against the plan, with lot and certificate details captured at goods receipt.
04
Release the production order
The versioned BOM and routing release to the floor with capacity checked against work-centre load.
05
Shop-floor reporting
Output, consumption, time, scrap and rework are captured where the work happens, not re-keyed later.
06
Quality and traceability
In-process and final checks record results against the lot, so a forward or backward trace is answered in minutes.
07
Cost and variance
Material, labour, subcontract and overhead post to the order, giving actual versus standard cost per run.
08
Finish and despatch
Finished goods post to stock, are picked against the sales order and despatched with their lot record intact.
How an engagement runs

FAQ
Questions about manufacturing
What teams ask us before starting a manufacturing rollout.
Both. Discrete assembly uses BOMs and routings; process operations use formulas, yields and batch attributes.
