Custom manufacturing software that connects the shop floor and office.
I build and modernize manufacturing applications for production tracking, scheduling, inspections, and reporting. The work can extend an existing ERP or MES, replace spreadsheets, or support a production process that standard software does not fit.
Describe your production workflowStart with the production problem
A useful starting point is a specific gap: production status is hard to find, inspections stay on paper, or staff enter the same job details twice. We map that workflow, identify the surrounding systems, and decide what the application needs to change.
Manufacturing applications and integrations
- Work-order and production-stage tracking.
- Scheduling and resource allocation.
- Digital quality inspections and traceability records.
- ERP and accounting integration.
- Equipment and sensor data used in production reporting.
- Operational dashboards and exception alerts.
Project example: precast-concrete manufacturing
I built a custom MES for a made-to-order precast operation. It represented form preparation, pouring, curing, finishing, and inspection, with ERP data, IoT sensors, and machinery connections.
Read the precast manufacturing software case study for the workflow and integration scope.
Custom MES or an extension to the system you already use?
We should compare both. A focused application or connector may solve a problem without replacing the existing ERP or MES. A custom execution layer becomes more useful when production rules and workflows are not represented adequately by the current tools.
Introducing changes during production
Deployment needs to account for shift patterns, work in progress, user training, data migration, and recovery if something fails. A phased rollout can reduce disruption, but the right plan depends on the plant.
Can you connect sensors and equipment?
Yes, where the interfaces and operating requirements permit. My focus is application software, data, cloud services, and integrations. See industrial IoT and SCADA development for the scope of that work.
