Order projection & mapping
Summary of the production processes that allow the manufacturer to project the number of goods to be manufactured in next phase including mapping of the concerned labor across all tasks
Challenges
- Very high production cost due to no insight on materials required and used
- Replicating manual MS Excel style reporting with intuitive and interactive reports
- Lack of business visibility in terms of production, inventory and sales plan
- Lack of ease for resource / labor allocation across entire production process

Automated data entry
The data entry interface helped with input on the daily item collections, product recovery, regular production work orders, and daily production goal information
Scalable and powerful platform
It’s a robust solution developed using custom .NET technology integrated with the existing Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 database to derive better insights from the data
Real-time reports
A custom reporting engine component was developed to generate varied production performance on a real-time basis based on KPIs and metrics with the provision to export report data into MS Excel, PDF, or share it via email.
