The problems we solve

Does this happen in your business?

  • Long-serving machinists and millwrights retire, and their setup knowledge goes with them
  • Custom, short-run work makes labour and material costing a guess, and quotes go out late
  • Job status sits on whiteboards, paper job cards, and spreadsheets
  • Inventory counts never match Sage or the ERP, so purchasing runs on feel
  • Customers want certificates of conformance, mill test certificates, and lot traceability, and assembling them takes hours
  • Tariff changes, CUSMA origin paperwork, and CARM records land on a team that already has a full day

Packages

Choose the headache. We take it from there.

Each package begins with a short call about how your business works. We quote the price after that call.

Package 01

Shop-Floor Job Board

Every open job, its progress through the plant, and its ship date in one view, fed by short entries at each work centre.

  • Job progress, quantities, scrap, and downtime reasons entered on a tablet at the work centre
  • Machine signals connected where the equipment allows it
  • Job status pulled from your ERP or accounting software and shop-floor updates
  • Late jobs flagged before the customer asks
  • A daily summary for the owner and plant manager
Package 02

Quality & Lot Records

Inspection records captured digitally, so a lot can be traced and customer paperwork takes minutes instead of hours.

  • Receiving, in-process, and final inspection forms on a tablet
  • Lot and heat numbers linked from material receipt to shipment
  • Certificates of conformance drafted from inspection data, checked by your quality manager before they go out
  • Mill test certificates filed against the right lot, with repeat defects organized by part
Package 03

Inventory & Sage Connection

Inventory records kept honest and your ERP, accounting, and shop-floor tools sharing the same data.

  • Inventory movements captured at receiving, issue, and shipping
  • Reorder alerts drafted for your purchasing person to check
  • Data moved between Sage or QuickBooks, your ERP, and spreadsheets without re-keying, with GST/HST and QST coded for your accountant to check
  • Country of origin and tariff classification kept against each part, for your customs broker to check
Package 04

RFQ & Costing Assistant

Requests for quotes kept in one place, with first-draft quotes built from past jobs and your bills of materials, for an estimator to check.

  • RFQs from email, your website, and customer portals logged automatically
  • Draft costings from past jobs, labour rates, bills of materials, and current supplier prices
  • Quotes go out only when your team says yes
  • Follow-up on quotes that have gone quiet

How it works

How a project runs.

Tell us once how things really work. After that, the headache is ours.

  1. 01

    Listen

    First we sit and listen to how the work really runs. Only then do we build anything.

  2. 02

    Pick

    We choose the one or two fixes that save the most hours, and park the rest.

  3. 03

    Build

    We build it and connect it to your software. You keep running the business.

  4. 04

    Hand over

    Your team learns it on real work. A person checks anything a customer will see.

  5. 05

    Stay close

    We do not vanish after launch. An optional monthly plan keeps it running and improving.

Frequently asked

We run on Sage 50 and spreadsheets. Do we need an ERP first?

No. We start from what you already use and connect to it. If an ERP is the right next step, we will say so and help you choose, but much of this works without one.

Can you connect to our older equipment?

Often yes, but it depends on the machine. Newer CNC equipment can usually share data directly. Older machines can be fitted with simple sensors or counters. Many plants start with entry on a tablet and add machine signals later. The scoping step confirms what is possible.

Will people on the floor actually use it?

That is the real test. We keep entry short, build it around how your operators work, and train your supervisors. We also check the first weeks of data with your team.

Does this cover ISO 9001, AS9100, or our CBSA filings?

Not as a package. Cleaner records help when an auditor or customer asks, but certification stays with your quality manager and your registrar. CARM accounting and CUSMA claims stay with your customs broker.

Will our data leave the company?

Data handling is agreed before anything is built: what is used, where it is stored, and who can see it. Our team works from India. If your work falls under the Controlled Goods Program, that data stays out of our work.

Tell us what is giving you headaches. If a package fits, we say which one. If software is not the answer, we say that too.

We email you first, and call if we need to.

A few lines is plenty.
