Operations platform replacing spreadsheet-based job tracking

A custom internal system for quotations, job orders, approvals and status tracking, integrated with accounting and WhatsApp notifications.

Illustrative scenario. This page describes a representative engagement to show how we approach a problem. It is not a client case study and contains no client names, figures or results.

  1. 01

    Problem

    Orders were tracked across several shared spreadsheets and chat groups. Status updates were manual, approvals happened over messages, and nobody had a reliable view of what was in production, what was late and what had been invoiced.

  2. 02

    Solution

    A web-based operations platform with a single order record from quotation to delivery. Role-based access for sales, production and finance; approval workflows with notifications; automatic status updates to customers via WhatsApp; and invoice creation pushed to the accounting system through its API. A management dashboard shows workload, lead times and outstanding payments.
