Steel fabrication integration
STRUMIS plans the steel. SmartShopFloor runs the shop.
Structural steel fabricators rely on STRUMIS for estimating, materials and project control. SmartShopFloor extends that into the workshop, with scheduling and tablet-based tracking through cutting, fitting, welding, coating and dispatch.
Structural steel fabricators who want STRUMIS projects tracked stage by stage in the workshop.

How it works
The STRUMIS workflow, step by step
- Step 1
Won project
Once work is confirmed, SmartShopFloor prepares the production handover from the agreed project information.
- Step 2
Schedule the workshop
Work is planned across stations and crews based on real capacity.
- Step 3
Track each stage
Operators record progress and checks on tablets as pieces move through the shop.
- Step 4
Dispatch with evidence
Progress and paperwork are ready for the office and, through the portal, the customer.
Scope for STRUMIS. STRUMIS is a specialist fabrication system rather than a general accounting package. Invoicing and the precise information exchanged are confirmed for your version and workflow during scoping.

FAQs
STRUMIS integration questions
Does SmartShopFloor replace STRUMIS?
No. STRUMIS stays your estimating and project system. SmartShopFloor runs scheduling and execution in the workshop.
Can we track fabrication stages like cutting, welding and painting?
Yes. Stages are configured to match how your workshop runs, and operators record progress on tablets.
Does this work if we also use an accounting system?
Yes. Many fabricators run STRUMIS alongside accounting software. The full picture is mapped out during scoping.
Can quality checks be captured digitally?
Yes. Digital forms let operators record inspections and sign-offs against the job.
Which STRUMIS versions are supported?
That depends on your version and setup. We confirm what is possible for your environment before agreeing scope.
