Dedicated Development Team Services for manufacturing
Production is tracked on paper or in a spreadsheet that one person maintains, the ERP is a day behind the floor, and every site keeps its own version of the stock number.
Why this is different here
Engineers who learn your process, then stay
Manufacturing software has a long learning curve, because the hard part is the process rather than the code. A dedicated engineer who already understands your routings and your ERP is worth several who do not, which is why continuity matters more here than almost anywhere.

FAQ
Common questions
Do you have experience in manufacturing operations?
We build operations software for this kind of business, which is a different claim from being a manufacturing specialist and we would rather make the honest one. What we bring is the engineering and the pattern recognition from similar operations. What you bring is how your plant, depot or site actually runs, because that part is never in a case study.
How do you start on a dedicated development teams project here?
We usually start with one line or one plant, four weeks, and a working app the operators actually use. If it does not survive contact with the floor there is nothing to roll out.
What does it cost?
Scope decides it and we quote line by line after a call. Two tracks: a blended squad at roughly $24 to $45 per hour, or a senior-only pod at roughly $75 to $120 where architecture review and a compressed timeline matter. A first project in this space usually runs four to six weeks.
How is this different from hiring a contractor?
Cover and continuity. A contractor who leaves takes the context with them. We keep a second engineer familiar with your codebase, carry the hiring and replacement risk, and the work stays documented in your repository rather than in one person's memory.
