Job Cards
Drive production from a digital job card — every stage, every station, in real time.
Replace paper job cards with a structured digital workflow that explodes the BOM, routes work through defined stages, captures station-level check-ins, gates quality, and exposes bottlenecks while they are still fixable.
THE FLOW
How the work moves through the system
STEP BY STEP
Same flow, in plain language
- 1
A confirmed Sales Order generates a job card automatically; the BOM explodes into a staged production plan.
- 2
Each stage is assigned a workstation, an operator (or pool), and an estimated cycle time.
- 3
Operators check in / check out at each stage on a tablet at the station — the timestamp is the truth.
- 4
Material consumption is recorded against the job card and deducted from inventory live.
- 5
Quality gates between stages either pass the unit forward, mark for rework, or scrap with a reason code.
- 6
Real-time dashboard shows every active job card, its current stage, time-in-stage vs target, and any blockers.
- 7
On final QC approval, the job card is closed and the unit is queued for dispatch.
WHAT YOU GET
Capabilities that ship with the module
Automatic BOM explosion
No manual planning per order — the production plan is derived from the engineering BOM and the order quantity.
Station check-in / check-out
Every minute of production is attributed to a station and operator — basis for OEE, cycle-time analysis, and incentives.
Quality gates with reason codes
Scrap and rework are categorised — defect Pareto analysis becomes possible without a separate QMS.
Live bottleneck heatmap
Plant manager spots the slow stage in seconds, not in a Monday-morning review of last week's data.
Mobile-first shop-floor UI
Operators with greasy hands and a ruggedized tablet can drive the system — no desktop, no paper.
Material consumption sync
Inventory deductions happen at consumption, not at order close — stock levels reflect reality.
