Key capabilities of our ERP software designed for metal fabrication
All the core ERP functions you’d expect plus focused capabilities for fabrication environments. Our ERPs coordinate materials, production, subcontracting, costing, and traceability across multi‑stage processes. Embedded AI reduces manual work and highlights exceptions to keep jobs on schedule.
Built-in AI: generative, agentic & more
Embedded AI drives productivity and efficiency across processes – highlighting exceptions, automating workflows, and accelerating decisions. Both GenAI and agentic AI are built into the platform, not bolted on.
Dimensional & attribute-based inventory
Track sheet, plate, bar, and coil by size, gauge, grade, and finish for accurate pricing and nesting. Reduce scrap and improve yield with dimensional inventory that tracks material by physical characteristics.
Bill of materials & routings
Define multi-level BOMs and routings for cutting, forming, welding, and finishing. Link to costing and scheduling for accurate planning, scrap control, and compliance.
Job costing & margin control
Gain real-time visibility to capture material, labor, and overhead costs. Automate surcharges for raw material price changes – and protect margins with accurate job costing and project tracking.
Inventory & materials management
Manage sheet, plate, bar, and coil inventory with up-do-date stock data. Link stock to job demand, reduce carrying costs, and optimize material flow across sites and suppliers.
Supplier & subcontracting management
Manage POs and outsourced steps – like coating or heat treatment – with full cost and schedule visibility. Collaborate with suppliers in real time to reduce delays and expedite fees.
Project accounting
Track project profitability with work breakdown structure and earned value analysis. Estimate cost-to-complete, manage cash flow, and keep complex fabrication projects on schedule and within budget.
Quality management
Tolerance‑based inspections, real‑time control charts, and closed‑loop quality tie engineering and production together – reducing scrap, improving compliance, and speeding corrective actions.
Traceability & lifecycle BOMs
Track material and part history from receipt through fabrication and shipment. Maintain audit-ready compliance with lifecycle BOMs and lot/serial traceability for every job.
Advanced planning & scheduling
Optimize sequencing across cutting, forming, welding, and finishing. Manage capacity and material constraints, prioritize urgent orders, and reduce late jobs with advanced planning and scheduling (APS).
