140+ plants live Trailer, steel, auto, machine tools, sheet metal, and capital goods — sectors where BOMs and gates matter daily.
~60-day go-live Discovery, configuration, migration, training, and hypercare led by manufacturing specialists — not generic IT rollouts.
One connected platform Nine modules share master data and transactions. No bolt-on integrations between sales and the shop floor.

What we believe

Principles we ship by

Every implementation decision — from BOM depth to GST posting — follows these rules.

  • 01
    Factory-first workflows

    Software should mirror BOMs, routings, batches, and quality gates — not retail or services ERP adapted for plants.

  • 02
    Speed to value

    Plants cannot wait 18 months. Go-live in weeks, with hypercare until teams run confidently on their own.

  • 03
    Compliance from operations

    GST, e-Invoice, e-Way Bill, and audit trails should post from dispatch and billing — not month-end spreadsheets.
