In their words

What Australian manufacturers report

Customer-reported results from Australian manufacturing businesses. Outcomes vary by shop.

45 minutes per operator per shift. Ask us about the measurement and conditions for your operation.

All customer stories

Sound familiar?

Most shops accept these as normal.

Your accounting or ERP handles the money. The gaps sit between the enquiry and the shop floor.

01Quotes go out too slowly to win

Drawings, take-offs and subcontract pricing live in different places, so a straightforward enquiry waits on one busy estimator.

02Two estimators, two prices

Without shared history, rates and assumptions drift. Nobody checks estimates against what the job actually cost.

03Late jobs surface when the customer rings

Schedules live on whiteboards and in heads. Production managers lose time answering status questions instead of running the floor.

04Skilled people stuck re-keying data

Quotes, POs, travellers and invoices get typed twice between the office, the floor and the accounting system.

Your quoting and operations scenarios

Run your own numbers

What could faster quoting and better utilisation unlock?

Explore potential new business and additional workforce capacity using your own assumptions.

Scenario 1 · Estimation

What could more quotes mean for your business?

Use representative monthly averages for quote volume and turnover from quoted work.

40

AUD 200,000

25 %

Potential additional monthly revenue (AUD)A$50,000Based on 25% more quotes in the same time.
Estimates based on user-editable assumptions.

Prefilled values are editable examples, not industry benchmarks. All monetary values are in Australian dollars (AUD). These are illustrative estimates, not guaranteed results, savings or financial ROI.

Additional quotes/month: 40 quotes × 25% uplift = 10 additional quotes.

Implied revenue per quote submitted: A$200,000 turnover ÷ 40 quotes = A$5,000—not average quote size.

Potential additional monthly revenue: 10 additional quotes × A$5,000 implied revenue per quote = A$50,000.

Assumes the same win rate and job-value mix, demand for additional quotes and capacity to deliver. A 25% quoting uplift models 25% more revenue. Turnover may relate to earlier jobs; this is an indicative opportunity, not profit, guaranteed sales or same-month revenue.

Scenario 2 · Operations

More capacity from your existing team

Time that could move from chasing paperwork, instructions or job information back to productive work.

Estimates based on user-editable assumptions.

Prefilled values are editable examples, not industry benchmarks. All monetary values are in Australian dollars (AUD). These are illustrative estimates, not guaranteed results, savings or financial ROI.

Potential recovered hours/month: 10 operators × 20 shifts per operator × 30 minutes per shift ÷ 60 = 100 hours.

Illustrative capacity value/month: 100 hours × A$50/hour = A$5,000 of additional productive labour capacity, without additional hiring.

Monthly salary equivalents: A$5,000 ÷ A$8,000 monthly salary benchmark = 0.63 salary equivalents.

Salary equivalents compare value to a salary benchmark; they are not headcount (FTE). Additional capacity is not reduced payroll, cash savings or guaranteed profit. "Without additional hiring" does not mean software, implementation or other costs are zero.
