Hit Your Delivery Dates, Every Time

Hitting and maintaining a high on-time delivery rate is a direct measurement of customer satisfaction. Know exactly when jobs will finish - no more guessing or disappointed customers.

A Custom-Built Solution

Smart Shop Floor was built specifically for job shop complexity, developed through years of working with leading manufacturers who deal with custom jobs, changing priorities, and one-off requirements daily.

Reduce Shop Floor Stress

The system reacts to disruptions and updates operators’ tasks in response, resulting in fewer fires for you to put out. Operators get clear-cut visibility and direction.
How It Works

How Automated Scheduling Works Across Your Organization

Connect with your data sources and map out your processes

  • Whether you're using manual planning, Excel, or enterprise software, we'll configure Smart Shop Floor to fit your current setup
  • Seamlessly connect with your quoting, job management, inventory, and engineering systems
  • Map out your production process for each product type, creating a digital workflow that guides work assignment

Create an optimized schedule

  • Our scheduling algorithm creates the most efficient plan possible, based on finite, capacity-based scheduling
  • Automatically routes complex jobs with hundreds of steps, multiple locations, or extended timelines from quote to delivery
  • Jobs are prioritised by customer priority and due dates, so critical work gets done first
  • Confirms operator availability, machine capacity, and materials before releasing jobs to the floor
  • Override the system anytime with simple drag-and-drop manual adjustments to quickly eliminate conflicts
  • Identifies your bottlenecks and sets the pace around them, ensuring maximum throughput

Assign work

  • Work is assigned based on staff and equipment available at that moment
  • Skill-based allocation matches people based on their capabilities and speed
  • Balances workload across your team, rotating through all available operators
  • Operators log job progress through the Operator App, automatically tracking time and billable hours

Get everyone on the same page

  • Digital production board replaces your whiteboards with live updates - filter by work centre or see the whole workshop at once
  • Colour-coded job tiles make it easy to spot urgent work and see what's in progress
  • Real-time updates flow straight to the office - no more walking the floor for status updates or playing phone tag with customers

Adapt your schedule in real time

  • Schedule automatically adjusts to changes and disruptions, keeping work on track - like machine breakdowns, operators calling in sick, or rush jobs come through the door
  • Continuously pulling in new orders from ERP.

Get Better and Faster

  • Self-learning algorithm gets smarter with every job, comparing job time estimates to actual performance to improve delivery date accuracy and quote reliability
  • Know who’s struggling and who’s flying by comparing task completion times to your team average
  • Delayed jobs flash red so supervisors know immediately when tasks need attention

Visualize

  • Monitor critical KPIs to prevent late deliveries and bottlenecks
  • Test your plans first to see how inventory, maintenance, or time off will affect delivery dates
  • Look ahead to avoid surprises like double-booked machines or quiet periods
  • Get warned immediately if any job is at risk of missing its delivery date
