Solution for manufacturers
A workshop or factory loses margin in the gap between the order and the dispatch note: overtime nobody planned, material that was there last week, and a job whose real cost is worked out after the customer has already been invoiced.
What goes wrong
The issues you already have in your business, and what each one looks like once the ITS Global system is running.
| The issue in your business | Fixed with the ITS Global system |
|---|---|
| Shift attendance and overtime by handTwo shifts, a register per line, and overtime calculated at month end from a sheet somebody has been annotating in pen. Payroll is a week of arguing. | Clock-in on the floor against the shift, overtime accumulated against your own rule, and payroll that arrives already correct. |
| Job cards on paper, orders lost in the shopAn order becomes a paper card that moves with the work. Where it has reached is known only by walking the floor and asking. | Every order moves through your own stages with an owner at each one, visible from the office without walking anywhere. |
| Raw material is a guess until you count itStock on the system and stock on the rack stopped agreeing months ago, so purchasing runs on instinct and the line stops for something that was supposed to be there. | Material is issued against the job that consumes it, so the figure on screen is the figure on the rack. |
| Scrap and rework are invisibleA part is remade and the cost disappears into general overhead. Nobody knows which product, machine or shift is quietly eating the margin. | Rework is recorded against the job and the reason, so the pattern shows up in a report rather than in a bad year. |
| Purchase orders raised too lateReordering happens when somebody notices a gap. The lead time was longer than the gap, so the line waits. | Purchasing is driven by what jobs are committed and what stock is left, and approvals route instead of sitting in an inbox. |
| No answer when a customer asks for a dateThe only honest reply is “soon”, because the answer depends on four people, none of whom has the whole picture. | Committed orders, capacity and stage progress in one place, so the delivery date is a figure rather than a hope. |
