What changed

One person's memory, replaced by a system anyone can open.

Before

  • Bills of materials, part numbers and reorder points held in Damien's memory
  • Enquiries arriving by Instagram, Facebook, email, website and phone, with no single record
  • Mary unable to move a job forward without going through Damien

After

  • Multi-level BOMs, reorder points and job history in a system anyone can open
  • Every enquiry in one pipeline, traceable to the quote and the work orders beneath it
  • Mary runs quoting, purchasing and invoicing. Damien stays on the machines
What we built

The enquiry, the machine and the books, on one thread.

  • Enquiry pipeline

    Fed by the website, plus Instagram and phone.

  • Quotes with an accept link

    The customer accepts, the sales order creates itself.

  • Multi-level BOMs

    Made and bought parts kept separate.

  • Requirements run

    On hand, on order, committed and still to make.

  • Scheduling by resource

    Across both machines and assembly.

  • Gates

    Assembly can't be scheduled before its machining.

  • Purchase orders

    Batched by supplier, emailed from the platform.

  • MYOB integration

    Synced numbering, and paid status flowing back.

We're lodging a case at 8.30 at night, and I wake up at six in the morning and it's fixed. I've never seen help desk service like that anywhere in the IT world.
