Client Overview
The client is a leading manufacturer with two advanced production plants equipped with CNC technology and modern machinery. Specializing in precision products, they meet international quality standards backed by rigorous testing in fully equipped laboratories.
Business Challenges
Despite strong manufacturing capabilities, the company faced several challenges:
- Managing Large Number of SKUs: Difficulties in accurate planning and tracking.
- Siloed Processes: Disconnected operations across procurement, production, quality control, and dispatch.
- Manual Tracking: This led to delays and limited visibility.
- Quality Checks: Ensuring checks at every production stage.
- Jobwork & Subcontracting: Lack of traceability for outsourced operations.
- Customer Delivery: Meeting delivery deadlines amid operational challenges.
- ERP & Accounting Synchronization: Gaps between operational data and financial systems.
ManufApp Implementation
To overcome these challenges, the client implemented ManufApp for manufacturing digitization and Tally integration for seamless financial alignment. The following operations were digitized:
- Indent Management: Digital creation, approvals, and visibility of indents.
- Purchase Order Management: Automated PO creation, vendor management, and material tracking.
- Sales Order Management: Creation of SOs, demand planning, and capacity alignment.
- Production Planning & Execution: Work order automation, tracking across production stages like CNC, Press, and VMCs.
- In-Process Quality Control: Stage-wise QC, NCR handling, and traceability.
- Jobwork Management: Material issue, return tracking, and lead time control.
- Inward & Incoming Quality: PO-linked material inward and QC workflows.
- Material Issuance: Controlled issuance, auto-stock updates, and consumption capture.
- MRP: Real-time MRP to optimize material procurement and availability.
- Shipment & Dispatch: Automated dispatch planning linked to finished goods availability.
Tally Integration for Seamless Accounting Sync
