Manufacturing

Production, bills of materials, stock and true costing in one system, so you find out what a unit actually costs you before the year end, not after it.

The work

Costing is where manufacturing ERP earns its money.

We implement the production side of ERPNext against your real routing: bills of materials, work orders, subcontracting, scrap and batch traceability, tied into stock valuation and the general ledger so the cost of a finished unit is calculated rather than estimated.

Most manufacturers we meet have decent production discipline on the floor and no reliable link between that discipline and the accounts. That gap is the project.

What we hear

The problems that bring manufacturing businesses to us.

01

Nobody agrees what a unit costs

Materials sit in one spreadsheet, labour in another, overhead is a guess applied at year end. Pricing decisions get made on instinct.

02

Stock on the system is not stock on the floor

Issues to production are recorded late or not at all, so variance is discovered during a stock count and written off without explanation.

03

Traceability is manual

When a batch is questioned, tracing what went into it and where it went means someone digging through paper for two days.

04

Production planning lives in one person's head

Which is fine until they are on leave and an order is promised that cannot be made.

What changes

What the business looks like afterwards.

Costed output

Every work order carries its materials, labour and overhead, so unit cost and margin are reportable per product line.

Stock that reconciles

Issues, receipts and scrap posted as they happen, with counts that investigate variance rather than absorbing it.

Traceable batches

Batch and serial tracking from raw material receipt to customer delivery, queryable in seconds.
