Working demo

CNC machine shop jobs and scheduling demo

Quotes, jobs, travelers, a drag-and-drop work-center schedule, lots and certs, and a shop-floor time clock for a CNC machine shop.

This is a working demo we built for a business deciding whether to hire us. It runs on example data.

The business

A CNC machining shop that quotes parts, runs jobs through work centers and ships to customers.

The problem

  • Scheduling the shop floor was the tricky part.
  • The software they rented was bigger than they needed.
  • Their accounting had to stay where it was, with years of data in it.

The standout feature

Accept the PO, the job builds itself

A customer sends a purchase order for a quoted part. One click on Accept PO creates the job and its traveler, puts it on the work-center schedule and holds the material.

What we built

  • Accepting a customer's purchase order creates the job, the traveler, the schedule and the material hold in one step.
  • A work-center board with capacity per day, drag to reschedule and due-date flags.
  • Job costing, with traveler steps marked complete from the floor.
  • Inventory showing what each job is holding, purchase planning and receiving.
  • Lots and material certs.
  • A shop-floor time clock, hours by job and a payroll export to QuickBooks.
  • Shipping and receiving.
  • New design revisions sync from the shop's design software onto the traveler.

After we build it

Who fixes problems
We do. One year of bug fixes is standard in every contract. If something we built breaks, we fix it.
What you own
You own the code, the database and the accounts it runs on.
Your data
Your data moves with you. It sits in a database you own, so it is never locked inside our system or anyone else's.
Your team
Your team is trained on it. We walk your staff through the screens they will use.
If we disappear
You hold everything another developer needs to pick it up: the code, the database and the accounts.
Who you talk to
We are a US team based in Florida. The person who leads your build is the person you talk to.

Who builds it
