Custom software
Systems built for how your business actually runs, replacing the spreadsheets and workarounds holding it together.
How it worksAll industries
Precision and assembly
The bill of material is a moving target.
Approved vendor lists, alternate parts, component shortage handling, kitting, test data capture, and unit-level serialisation.
Where the standard system leaves the cost in place.
Electronics assembly is procurement with a production line attached. A board is only buildable when every one of two hundred line items is available, approved, and within its handling constraints, and a single obsolete component invalidates a plan that looked fine yesterday. Meanwhile the customer revises the bill of material, the alternate part needs approval, and the shortage has to be resolved before the line changes over. Spreadsheets can hold this. They cannot hold it at speed. In this sector the cost of poor information is measured in line stoppages and expedited freight.
- Bills of material arrive from customers in different formats and are merged into internal part numbers by hand each revision.
- Approved alternates exist but are not held against the part, so a usable substitute sits in stock while the line waits.
- Shortage analysis is a spreadsheet exercise repeated every week, and it is stale by the time it is circulated.
- Moisture-sensitive and shelf-life-limited components are stored without exposure tracking, so bake requirements are guessed.
- Test and inspection results stay inside the machines that produced them, so failure analysis means walking to each station.
Built for electronics and ems.
Built on the same core our products run on, extended with the records and rules this sector is actually judged against. These are scopes we build and integrate, not shelf modules with a licence key.
BOM, AVL and alternates
Customer bills of material mapped to internal parts with approved vendor lists and validated alternates held against each line, so substitution is a controlled decision rather than a floor improvisation.
Shortage and allocation control
Buildability calculated continuously across open orders, shortages surfaced with lead time and alternate options attached, and available stock allocated deliberately instead of by whoever picks first.
Kitting and line feed
Kits issued against work orders with reel-level tracking, partial returns reconciled, and line-side consumption recorded so variance is found at the kit rather than at stock take.
Handling and shelf-life control
Moisture sensitivity levels, floor life, exposure time, and bake history tracked against the actual reel, so handling requirements are enforced by the system.
Test and inspection data capture
Results from in-circuit, functional, and optical inspection captured against the unit, so yield, first pass rate, and repeat failures are analysable rather than anecdotal.
Serialisation, rework and repair
Unit-level identity from build through test, rework, and dispatch, with every repair loop recorded against the serial so warranty and field failure analysis has real history.
What it has to be able to prove.
Compliance fails when it is a parallel activity. These obligations are carried by the system that runs the operation, so the evidence exists because of how work was recorded rather than because someone assembled it afterwards.
Material declarations
Substance restriction and material declaration status held against components and finished assemblies, so customer declarations are assembled from data rather than chased from suppliers each time.
Workmanship and process records
Process parameters, profiles, operator competence, and inspection class recorded against the build, which is what a customer audit asks for and what a field failure investigation needs.
Import and duty documentation
Imported component records tied to the schemes they were brought in under, with the consumption and reconciliation evidence those schemes require kept current instead of assembled under pressure.
What it runs on.
The sector layer is built. The operational core underneath it is not a proposal: it is running in production with clients today.

What it returns.
Buildability is known, not estimated
Shortages surface as soon as a revision or a delivery changes the picture, with alternates already visible.
Yield becomes an operating metric
Test results held against units turn first pass yield and repeat failures into figures you can act on.
Material variance closes at the kit
Issue, consumption, and return are reconciled per work order rather than discovered at stock take.
Where this normally starts.
Which of these applies depends on how well the constraint is already understood. A review that finds the real one usually turns into a build.
Data and reporting
Turning scattered records into dependable, current reporting that leaders can act on rather than argue about.
How it worksQuestions we actually get asked.
Customer BOMs change constantly. How do you keep up with revisions?
By treating the revision as data rather than as a document. Each customer bill of material version is imported and diffed against the last, so what changed, what is now obsolete, and what it does to open orders and stock on hand is visible immediately instead of after a manual comparison.
Can you pull data from our pick and place, AOI, or test equipment?
Usually. Most equipment exports results in some form, and reading that automatically is far more reliable than transcription. Where a machine is genuinely closed we define a capture point around it. We assess this early because it changes the shape of the traceability you can offer customers.
We import most components under duty schemes. Does the system help there?
Yes, and it is a common source of exposure. Consumption and reconciliation evidence for imported material is produced from the same production records that already exist, rather than being reconstructed when a return or an audit is due.
