Unity ERP — manufacturing
Nothing is re-keyed between stages. The job that was quoted is the job that was cut, tracked, purchased for and paid — so the costing at the end reflects what actually happened, not what someone estimated at the start.
Built for manufacturers of fifteen to two hundred staff who are currently running on spreadsheets, paper job cards and an accounts package that was never meant to touch the factory floor.
Runs on the shop floor, not just in the office. Job cards are captured at the work centre, on the machine or on a phone.
Built inside a real factory. The workflows come from watching real jobs move across a real shop floor, not from a requirements document.
Supported by its builders. The people who wrote the system answer the phone. There is no tier one.
Modules — in the order the factory uses them
This is a sequence, not a feature list. Each stage hands the same job record to the next — the quote becomes the order, the order becomes job cards, the cards become hours, the hours become pay.
Module 01
Estimate from real material prices and real operation times, not last year's guesses. When the quote is accepted it becomes the order — same record, no re-typing — and the estimate travels with the job so actuals land next to it.
Replaces
The quoting spreadsheet, and the gap between what was quoted and what was made.
Module 02
Every order breaks into job cards per operation. Work is booked at the work centre — scanned, tapped or keyed — so you can see where any job physically is without walking the floor to ask.
Replaces
Paper job cards, and the whiteboard that's three days behind.
Module 03
Plan crews against the week's load and see bottlenecks before Thursday. Piecework is captured at the operation against versioned rate tables, so operators are paid from the same record the job was costed on.
Replaces
The wages notebook, and arguments about who did which bundle.
Module 04
Shortages raise requisitions from the jobs that need the material. Receipts land against orders, price breaks are applied automatically, and stock agrees with the jobs consuming it — because they are the same system.
Replaces
The re-order spreadsheet, and stock counts that never match.
Module 05
Hours and piecework flow from the floor straight into the pay run — rates, overtime and shift rules applied once, centrally. The wages clerk checks and approves; nobody re-keys a timesheet.
Replaces
Re-typing timesheets into a payroll package that's never heard of your factory.
Underneath all of it
Run more than one trading entity in a single system, with consolidated purchasing where it helps and clean separation where it matters. Every role — estimator, foreman, storeman, wages clerk — sees exactly the screens their job needs and nothing else.
Every client gets this
From the day you sign, you get a private page — yours alone — showing exactly where your implementation stands: which milestones are done, what’s in progress this week, what’s waiting on you, and who on our side owns each item.
No status-meeting theatre, no chasing an account manager for an update. If you want to know where things stand at 6am on a Sunday, the page knows.

The first call is about how your jobs actually move — not a demo script. You’ll be talking to someone who has stood on a shop floor with a stopwatch.
