See where every order stands, without chasing the information
On a shop floor, information changes fast and the Excel file can't keep up. We build a tool that shows the status of every order in real time, from purchase order to shipping. The floor updates it on a tablet, the office sees it instantly.

Managing production in Excel falls apart fast
Excel calculates very well. But tracking production that moves, as a team, continuously — that's not its job. Here's what that looks like on the floor.
- Production status is never up to date: between the step finished on the floor and the box ticked at the office, you're working blind.
- Nobody's looking at the same version: a file on the network, a copy on a workstation, another sent by email — three truths, none reliable.
- Inventory is kept by hand, so shortages arrive by surprise, mid-batch, when it's already too late to order.
- Scheduling lives in another spreadsheet that drifts out of sync with the first: no way to see the week's load or the bottleneck coming.
- No late alerts: you find out an order is slipping when the customer calls, not before.
- Quality control stays on paper sheets that pile up, get lost, and that nobody can consult remotely.
- Answering "where's my order?" takes a call to the shop, a walk to the floor, and a bit of luck.
What a tool built for your shop does instead
Real-time dashboard
Every order in progress and its status, at a single glance. No need to ask anyone where things stand.
Status by order and by step
Each job moves through your real steps — received, in production, at inspection, ready, shipped — not generic boxes.
Inventory with threshold alerts
Stock updates as you produce. The tool warns you before the shortage, not once the batch is stuck.
Load scheduling
The week and each workstation become visible. You spot the bottleneck before it freezes the whole line.
Shop-floor access on a tablet
The operator changes the status in one gesture, hands full: scan or tap a button. The office sees it right away.
Quality tracking and history
Inspections get logged on screen, not on paper. Everything is kept and time-stamped: who did what, when, and how long each step took.
Your data stays here, and you stay in control
Your orders, your prices, your suppliers: they stay with you. Data is hosted in Canada, compliant with Québec's Law 25, and the tool belongs to you. We start small, on a single production flow, so you can test it in real conditions before going further. You keep control; we only remove the spreadsheet's pain points.
