Glass can travel from the supplier straight to the site, one purchase order per work package. The crew ticks the panes received and reports broken ones from the phone.
Before: Glass came through the factory.
Production, installation and after-sales request glass by size or shape, with panes suggested from the design. Purchasing gets a draft request for quotation per supplier.
Work packages and the foreman's phone request material from the store with a reason, on the same form production uses for extra material.
Work packages get a Gantt view: drag packages from a tray onto a day, move a bar to another crew, and spot double-booked crews, on desktop or phone.
Before: A separate schedule menu.
Production orders and service orders use the same Gantt view, with its tray, dark mode and phone layout, so every schedule works one way.
A length correction can now apply to chosen products only, such as a support mullion cut to full frame height. Existing cut lists do not change.
A piece longer than any stock bar is split with a joint or ordered as a special bar, and the quotation already prices it.
Before: Such a piece stopped the optimisation.
Finished windows can ship on one delivery per sale order, with a delivery note that shows each window's drawing. Each step has its own switch.
Pick the profile product for each mullion, frame side or sash in the designer. The drawing width and the cut list follow your choice.
Before: One default profile served every member.
Send a cutting plan straight to the saw or machining centre in its own format, including DXF and G-code. Every file sent is logged and can be downloaded again.
Before: Generating and delivering the file were separate.
