Industry
Raw material, job work, scrap recovery and dispatch — tracked properly
Brass manufacturing runs on weight, not units. Material issued to a job returns as finished parts plus scrap plus an unexplained difference — and that difference is where margin quietly disappears. Standard manufacturing software, built around discrete unit counts, cannot model it.
We build systems for brass and metal units around weight-based reconciliation. Every kilogram issued is accounted for as finished goods, recovered scrap or measured loss, per job worker and per process.
Most units in Jamnagar and similar clusters run substantially on job work. Material goes out for turning, plating, polishing or threading and comes back changed. The system tracks material with each job worker, expected versus actual recovery, ageing of outstanding material, and process-wise costing — so you know which job worker is actually profitable.
Job costing that includes metal rate at the time of issue, process charges, rejection and scrap recovery value. When the brass rate moves, you can see immediately what it does to quoted prices.
The Reality
These are the problems clients describe to us before the first line of code is written.
Weight issued and weight returned never quite reconcile, and nobody can pinpoint where the difference occurs.
Material sitting with job workers for months with no systematic follow-up or ageing visibility.
Recovered scrap not tracked against the job that produced it, distorting true job profitability.
Quotations based on last month's brass rate, eroding margin when the rate has moved.
Shop-floor output recorded on paper and entered days later, so planning always works on stale data.
No process-wise rejection data, so the same quality issue recurs without being isolated.
System Modules
Start with the modules that hurt most today; add the rest as you grow. Nothing here requires a rewrite later.
Stock tracked in kilograms with grade, size and section, alongside piece counts where relevant.
Material issued and received per job worker and process, with ageing and outstanding balance.
Bill of materials, work orders, machine allocation and shop-floor output capture.
Scrap booked against the originating job and valued at current rate for true job costing.
Stage-wise inspection with rejection reasons captured by process and by operator.
Metal cost at issue rate, process charges, rejection and scrap value — combined into real job margin.
Outcomes
Weight reconciliation per job and per worker turns an unexplained gap into a specific, fixable number.
Ageing reports surface material outstanding with workers before it is written off.
Costing tied to current rates protects margin when brass prices move.
Process-wise rejection data points to the specific machine or stage causing the problem.
