Manufacturing
The floor doesn't wait for your software.
Production, supply chain, and quality operations run on timing. We build systems that work at that speed.
The Reality
What you're actually dealing with.
01
Scheduling lives in spreadsheets that nobody trusts
Shift planning, machine maintenance windows, and staffing adjustments happen across disconnected files and group chats. A single unplanned absence or equipment issue creates a cascade that takes hours to recover from — because there's no single source of truth.
02
Inventory decisions are made after the problem hits
Stockouts and overstock happen in the same quarter because reorder decisions aren't connected to actual consumption data. Procurement runs on habit and gut feel, not demand signals. By the time the shortage shows up on a report, production is already delayed.
03
Quality data sits on paper until it's too late
Defect tracking is shift-specific and retrospective. Supervisors review paper logs or end-of-day summaries — not real-time data. A defect pattern that's been building for three shifts gets caught on the fourth, after the parts have already moved downstream.
04
Supplier communication runs through individual inboxes
PO confirmations, lead time changes, and delivery exceptions are managed by whoever sent the original email. When that person is on the floor, on vacation, or no longer at the company, the information disappears with them.
Our Approach
We work the way manufacturing works.
Every facility has a different mix of systems, equipment vintages, and operator skill levels. There's no single platform that fixes everything, and we don't pretend otherwise.
We start by understanding your production cycle, then identify the highest-friction handoffs — usually between scheduling, inventory, and quality — and build targeted automation that reduces that friction without requiring a floor-wide technology overhaul.
Start on the floor, not the org chart
We map actual production workflows — who does what, where decisions happen, where data gets created and where it gets lost.
Connect what already exists
Most facilities have usable data in their ERP, MES, or spreadsheets. We integrate it before building anything new.
Build for operators, not administrators
Systems that require supervisor buy-in to run don't survive shift changes. We build interfaces that floor staff will actually use.
Automate the connective tissue
The biggest gains in manufacturing come from eliminating the manual handoffs between systems — not from replacing the systems themselves.
What We Build
Specific systems. Real outcomes.
Inventory forecasting and automated reorder
Connects consumption data, production schedules, and supplier lead times to generate reorder triggers before stockouts happen. Eliminates the weekly manual inventory review.
Integrates with existing ERP or inventory system. Reorder thresholds set per SKU based on historical consumption and production schedule.
Shift scheduling and workforce coordination
Automated scheduling with conflict detection, coverage gap alerts, and cross-shift handoff documentation. Supervisors stop managing the calendar and start managing the floor.
Handles call-outs, shift swaps, and overtime notifications automatically. Integrates with payroll to flag hours before approval.
Quality control log automation
Structured data capture at inspection points routes defect trends to supervisors in real time — not at end of shift. Identifies recurring defect patterns across lines, shifts, and suppliers.
Configurable inspection templates by product line. Defect escalation triggers based on frequency thresholds, not manual review.
Supplier communication and PO workflows
Automated PO generation from reorder triggers, lead time tracking, and deviation alerts. Supplier confirmations and delivery updates route to the right person, not an inbox.
Supplier portal or email-based workflow depending on supplier capability. All communication logged to a shared record.
