The current instruction, at the point of work.
Show the work order, drawing revision, required materials, and the next operation. Keep superseded instructions out of the normal working view.
Manufacturing
Keep materials and production on the same plan.
A missing part changes the plan. A changed plan affects the next team. We connect materials, job status, and purchasing so the people doing the work can see what is ready, what is blocked, and why.

A schedule only works if the parts are there.
Link the bill of materials to stock, reservations, and purchase orders. Give planners the missing quantity and expected receipt, not just a red cell in a spreadsheet.

Planner reviews the start date
At the workstation
Show the job. Record what happened.
Useful status updates
Record started, paused, completed, or blocked with a reason. Make it quick enough for the people doing the work to keep it current.
Quality tied to the batch
Attach checks, photos, and sign-off to the relevant job or batch. Surface rework before the next operation begins.
Build it around one real production run.
We follow an order through planning, materials, production, and quality. Then we trial a narrow workflow alongside your current process, check the records agree, and train the people responsible for each handover.
Common questions.
Something else on your mind?
Can this connect to our ERP?
We review the available interfaces and decide which system owns items, orders, stock, and job status. The first connection is tested with a limited set of records, including rejected updates and retries.
Will this control machinery?
These projects focus on planning, traceability, and operational information. Direct machine control is a separate engineering scope that needs the relevant equipment specialists and validation.
What if our production data is still on paper?
We can begin with one job type and a simple way to record status, quantities, and exceptions. The first trial checks whether the interface fits real working conditions before more data collection is added.
