Web App Development · Manufacturing operations

Custom Software Development 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

Software that runs on the floor, not just in the office

Line-side tools behave differently from office software. They need to work on a shared tablet with gloves on, keep working when the network drops in the far corner of the plant, and never make an operator wait. We build for that first and for the reporting second.

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 web app development 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.

Can you work with our existing codebase?

Yes. We start with a short audit, tell you honestly what to keep and what to replace, then work inside your repository and process.
