Manufacturing operations software

Connect materials, work, quality and output across the shop floor.

Give production teams a dependable operational record from work-order release to finished output, without replacing the systems that already run the business.

The operating challenge

Close the gap between the production plan and what actually happened.

ERP tells the business what should be produced. Manufacturing operations software captures how work moves, what was consumed, where time was lost and what was completed.

Flatorb creates a practical shop-floor workflow for operators, supervisors, quality teams and planners.

Barcode, RFID, IoT and equipment signals can be introduced where they improve speed, traceability or reliability—not simply because the technology is available.

The operational outcomeA trusted production record that links work orders, materials, people, equipment, quality and output.

Core capabilities

Make every critical production event visible.

Configure the workflow around the operation, the people using it and the information other systems require.

01Capability

Work-order execution

Release, start, pause, transfer and complete work with clear responsibilities and status.

02Capability

Material traceability

Record issues, returns, substitutions, lot consumption, scrap and finished-goods genealogy.

03Capability

Quality control

Embed inspections, specifications, holds, deviations, rework and approval evidence.

04Capability

Performance insight

Understand throughput, downtime, yield, bottlenecks and schedule adherence using operational evidence.

Connected workflow

One connected record from production release to completed output.

Each step creates the evidence and responsibility required by the next.

  1. 01
    Release

    Confirm work order, routing, material and priority

    Release, start, pause, transfer and complete work with clear responsibilities and status.

  2. 02
    Execute

    Capture labour, machine, quantity and status

    Record issues, returns, substitutions, lot consumption, scrap and finished-goods genealogy.

  3. 03
    Control

    Record quality, downtime, scrap and exceptions

    Embed inspections, specifications, holds, deviations, rework and approval evidence.

  4. 04
    Complete

    Verify output, genealogy and ERP posting

    Understand throughput, downtime, yield, bottlenecks and schedule adherence using operational evidence.

Operating principle

Digitise the real production flow—not an idealised diagram of it.

“The useful manufacturing record is created where materials, people and equipment actually meet.”

Frequently asked questions

Practical questions before you begin.

We configure the system around the real workflow and confirm the integration, device and implementation approach during discovery.

Is this a full ERP replacement?

No. It can operate independently, but it is commonly used as the operational layer between the shop floor and an ERP.

Can we begin with one production line?

Yes. A focused line or product family is often the best way to prove the workflow and integration before expansion.

Can it track batches and serial numbers?

Yes. Traceability rules can be configured for raw materials, intermediate work, finished goods, batches and serialised units.

Can machines and sensors be connected?

Yes. Industrial IoT and equipment integration can automate readings and events where there is a clear operational benefit.
