Manufacturing ERP software that follows your production line
Whether you make plastics, packaging, furniture, food, electrical goods or machined parts, the questions are the same: what is on the floor, what materials are left, what does each unit really cost. AutoProbaho builds manufacturing ERP and shop-floor systems for factories in Bangladesh and beyond that answer them from the data your operators already generate.
Planning in spreadsheets, production on registers, cost known too late
In most small and mid-sized factories the production plan lives in a planner's spreadsheet, raw material issue is written in a store register, and machine output is noted per shift on paper before someone types it into Excel the next day. Purchasing reorders on feeling rather than on a material requirement, so some items are overstocked while a single missing component stops a line.
The result is expediting, overtime and stock that does not match the books. Quality data is filed separately from production, so recurring defects are discovered in customer complaints rather than in trends. And unit cost — the number that decides pricing — is calculated once a quarter, if at all, from figures nobody fully trusts.
Who this is for
- Discrete manufacturers: plastics, packaging, furniture, electrical, metal and machined parts
- Process manufacturers: food and beverage, chemicals, paints, pharmaceuticals-adjacent units
- Contract manufacturers and job shops working to customer drawings and specifications
- Multi-plant groups that need one view across sites and shared stores
Current pain points
Material requirements are guessed
Without a live BOM explosion against open orders, purchasing buys too much of some items and runs out of others.
Shop-floor output is invisible until tomorrow
Shift output, downtime and rejects are written down and typed later; bottlenecks are found after the fact.
Store and book stock disagree
Issues, returns and scrap are recorded loosely, so physical counts routinely surprise finance.
Quality is a separate world
Inspection results sit in registers and are never linked to batches, machines or suppliers.
Unit cost arrives too late to matter
Actual material, labour and overhead per product are compiled long after prices were quoted.
What AutoProbaho builds
Manufacturing ERP core
Items, multi-level BOMs, routings, work orders, stores and purchasing on one data model, extended module by module.
Planning and MRP
Demand from sales orders and forecasts explodes into material requirements, purchase suggestions and capacity views.
Shop-floor data capture
Operators post output, downtime, scrap and material consumption on tablets or scanners per work centre and shift.
Quality management
Incoming, in-process and final inspection plans, results tied to batches and suppliers, non-conformance workflow.
Costing and management reporting
Actual cost per work order and product, variance versus standard, OEE and delivery performance dashboards.
Modules & capabilities
Item & BOM management
Raw materials, semi-finished and finished goods, multi-level BOMs with versions, alternates and scrap factors.
Production planning & MRP
Order-based or forecast-based planning, material requirement runs, purchase and work order suggestions.
Work orders & routing
Operations per work centre, sequencing, material issue and backflush, output posting per shift.
Raw material & finished goods stores
Batch and lot control, min/max levels, bin locations, cycle counts, scrap and rework stock.
Machine & maintenance log
Downtime reasons, planned maintenance schedules, spare parts consumption per machine.
Quality control
Inspection plans, sampling, test results, certificates of analysis, supplier quality scoring.
Costing
Standard versus actual cost, overhead allocation, cost per unit and per order, margin analysis.
Purchasing & subcontracting
Supplier quotes, POs, subcontract issue and receipt, three-way match with finance.
Interactive demonstration
Example workflows
Plan to produce
- 1Sales orders and forecast enter the plan
- 2MRP explodes BOMs against current stock and open POs
- 3Planner releases work orders to work centres
- 4Material is issued or backflushed as operations complete
- 5Finished goods are received into stock with batch numbers
Shop-floor shift reporting
- 1Operator logs into the work centre on a tablet
- 2Output, rejects and downtime reasons are posted during the shift
- 3Consumption is compared to BOM in real time
- 4Supervisor sees line status and bottlenecks live
- 5Shift summary and OEE update automatically for management
Non-conformance to corrective action
- 1Inspector records a failed test against a batch
- 2Batch is blocked from dispatch automatically
- 3Non-conformance is assigned to the responsible engineer
- 4Root cause and corrective action are documented
- 5Supplier or machine trend is updated for the next review
Integrations
- Accounting software (Tally, QuickBooks, Xero, DATEV export)
- Barcode/QR scanners and label printers
- Weighing scales and simple machine counters
- Attendance and biometric devices
- Supplier and customer portals (Excel/CSV/API)
- Google Workspace / Microsoft 365
- Email and WhatsApp notifications
- n8n workflow automation
Implementation process
- 01
Production walk-through
We follow one product from raw material receipt to dispatch and record every register, spreadsheet and hand-off.
- 02
Define the first module
Usually stores plus work orders, or planning plus MRP — whichever removes the most daily friction.
- 03
Model your BOMs and routings
Data structure is prototyped with your real items and validated with production and purchasing.
- 04
Build and roll out per line
Two-week increments; one line or plant goes live first with trained operators.
- 05
Extend to quality, costing, dashboards
Once transactions are reliable, we add the layers that make the data useful to management.
Expected business outcomes
Buy what production needs
Purchase suggestions come from real requirements, not from memory.
Live view of the floor
Output, downtime and rejects are visible during the shift by line and work centre.
Stock the books can trust
Issues, returns and scrap are posted at source, so counts stop surprising finance.
Cost per unit you can quote on
Actual material, labour and overhead per product, updated with every completed order.
Security & ownership
Traceability for audits
Batch and lot history from supplier to customer, with inspection results attached — for ISO-style, customer or regulatory audits.
Role-based floor access
Operators post only to their work centre; planners, QC and finance see what their role needs.
Resilient capture
Terminals buffer data during power or network outages and sync when back online; backups are automated and tested.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Multi-level BOMs with versions, effective dates and alternates are standard; changes are tracked with history and open work orders can be re-issued.
No. Most projects start with operator input on tablets. Counters, scales or PLC data can be connected later where it adds value.
Yes. Formulas with yields and by-products and assembly-style BOMs are both supported in the same data model.
We start with actuals from purchases and time posted, and build standards over the first quarters of data.
A first module is typically live within 8–12 weeks after the audit; full manufacturing coverage is delivered in phases over several months.
