Configuration to shop floor.
Zero handoff.
Work orders, routing, material consumption, and step-by-step instructions — all generated from the product definition. The dealer's configuration IS the manufacturing spec.
Auto-generated. Snapshot-frozen. Production-ready.
When an order enters production, each configured unit automatically becomes a work order. The BOM, configuration, and work instructions are frozen at that moment — immune to product model changes that happen after.
Priority is calculated from the expected ship date. Work order numbers are sequenced per account. Every downstream system — from the cutting station to the packing bay — reads from the same immutable snapshot.
Created from sales order. Awaiting release.
Approved for production. Operations queued at stations.
First operation started. Materials being consumed.
All operations done. Finished goods received to inventory.
Work cells. Dependencies.
Instructions. All in code.
The same DSL that defines the dealer-facing configurator also defines the manufacturing workflow. Each product model specifies its work cells, material consumption, time estimates, and step-by-step instructions — all evaluated dynamically from the configuration.
Work Cells
Named operations mapped to physical stations. Cutting, sewing, assembly, finishing, QC, packing — each cell defines what happens, how long it takes, and what it consumes. Conditional cells activate only when the configuration requires them.
Dependencies
Operations declare what they depend on. Motor assembly waits for cutting. Final assembly waits for motor assembly and fabric hemming. The shop floor only shows operations whose prerequisites are complete — enabling natural parallel processing.
Live Instructions
Step-by-step directions interpolated with actual values. "Cut roller tube to 47.5 inches" — not "Cut roller tube to [WIDTH - 0.5]". Workers see the real numbers, computed from the customer's configuration.
Material Consumption
Each cell declares what it consumes. Fabric by square footage with 10% waste. Tubes by linear feet. Motors by unit. Quantities calculated from the configuration with waste factors and remnant tracking built in.
Travelers & WIP
Physical sub-assemblies tracked through the shop. Cut tubes, hemmed panels, assembled units — each traveler has a barcode, status, location, and accumulated cost. When travelers combine, the lineage is preserved.
Finished Goods SKU
Dynamic SKU generation from the configuration. Every unique combination produces a unique finished-goods identifier. At completion, inventory receipt is posted automatically. No manual data entry into the ERP.
Stations see only what's ready. Workers see only what's theirs.
The shop floor interface is dependency-aware. Operations only appear in a station's queue when all prerequisites are complete and the work order is released. Workers assign themselves, clock in, complete the operation, and the next station is automatically notified.
Independent cells run in parallel. Dependent cells wait. The system manages the routing — your workers just pull from the queue and build.
Station Queues
Each station sees a queue of ready operations — filtered by cell type, dependency status, and work order release state. No paper routing sheets.
Quality & Rework
Report quality issues, material problems, or equipment failures without losing progress. Recall an operation to pending for rework. The audit trail is preserved.
Cost Accumulation
Material costs accumulate per traveler as operations consume inventory. When travelers combine into final assemblies, costs flow upward. COGS is calculated at completion.
Your shop floor deserves
better than paper.
Let's map your manufacturing workflow into the system. Work cells, routing, material consumption, and instructions — defined once, generated forever.
