About AKSHAJ ENTERPRISES

About AKSHAJ ENTERPRISES

AKSHAJ ENTERPRISES operates from Nashik and builds fastener kits for project-based customers. As a medium-scale auto ancillary unit running extended shifts during peak weeks, they work with a make-to-stock model and single stores. They needed a centralised workflow to reduce daily follow-ups and keep commitments predictable.

Earlier, AKSHAJ ENTERPRISES relied on WhatsApp-based follow-ups and calls to confirm milling progress. When priorities changed, different teams carried different versions of the plan. A centralised workflow captured stage updates at source, so WIP moved with clear ownership. The daily review shifted from collecting updates to resolving exceptions. Supervisors started closing handovers on time, improving predictability during two shifts.

Earlier, buying for fasteners was triggered after shortages hit the shopfloor. Follow-ups lived in personal reminders, so receipts slipped during busy days. Requirements were linked to live orders and shafts, creating a daily shortage list. Vendors were followed up against dates, not memory, and approvals became faster. The team reduced emergency purchases and avoided excess on slow movers across separate RM and FG stores.

Earlier, dispatch dates were committed before checks on inspection docs. Packing, QA clearance, and paperwork were tracked in different places. Readiness gates were added so jobs were released only when documents were complete. Customers got clearer dates, and escalations reduced because holds had visible reasons. Dispatch planning became steadier even with a make-to-order model and project-based customers.
