Tracking from raw material to final shipping

Metalworks

Core pain

We were operating in the dark. We couldn't track parts moving through the shop, leading to lost materials and unverified part quality.
Final results

We now track every part from order to shipping, automatically stamp codes on finished pieces, and accurately monitor material and machine usage.
Key stages

Six weeks total: one week mapping the shop floor, two weeks syncing files, two weeks training workers, and one week launching daily reports.
Resources used

We put together a team from the actual operations: the machine operators, quality inspectors, the maintenance crew, and the warehouse staff.
