Industrial products: project manufacturing, MES, quality, export.
Challenges
- In make-to-order work, drawing revisions are not tracked, so production runs on the wrong version.
- Costs are not gathered per project, so nobody sees which job loses money.
- Assembly and on-site commissioning stages are not tied to the work order.
- Warranty start and scope are not on record, so service claims turn into arguments.
Workflows
From quote to project
- The quote is prepared from the customer specification and technical drawing.
- The approved quote becomes a project record and work orders.
- Drawing revisions are versioned and production starts on the current version.
From fabrication to commissioning
- Fabrication and assembly stages are tracked separately on the work order.
- On-site commissioning is closed with a signed record.
- The warranty period is recorded on the project and service claims link to the same record.

FAQ
Can I track drawing revisions?
Yes — every revision is versioned and the production order shows which version it is bound to.
Can I see profit per project?
Yes — material, labor and subcontractor costs gather on the project and are compared with revenue.
Can I track assembly stages?
Yes — fabrication and site assembly are marked as separate stages on the work order.
Can I record commissioning?
Yes — the site record is attached to the project and triggers the warranty start.
Can I make the warranty scope explicit?
Yes — the warranty period and scope live on the project and service claims link to the same record.
