Packaging and Printing ERP
A manufacturing ERP for a flexible-packaging printing company that runs the whole job, from inquiry, costing and quotation to job card, production planning, shop-floor tracking and dispatch, plus printing-cylinder tracking, inventory and payroll.
WeyBee- Costing and quotations
- Job cards and planning
- Operator shop-floor portal
- Cylinder tracking and payroll
Flexible-packaging printers take custom jobs that pass through printing, lamination, slitting and cutting, each on different machines, with expensive printing cylinders made for each design. Costing, job cards and production status were handled on paper, which made delivery dates and job costs hard to control.
- Estimate job costs accurately and turn estimates into quotations and job cards.
- Plan production across printing, lamination, slitting and cutting.
- Track progress on the shop floor, where operators need a simple interface.
- Keep track of printing cylinders, stock and staff pay in the same system.
WeyBee delivered the ERP end to end, with project management. It follows the business's own workflow from customer inquiry to dispatch and adds a separate, simplified portal for machine operators. Production is planned stage by stage, and the system generates job cards, quotations and around 38 reports and documents. Scheduled jobs handle routine automation.
