About ALTOS ELECTRONICS

About ALTOS ELECTRONICS

ALTOS ELECTRONICS operates from Pune and builds control panels for OEM customers. As a micro-scale electrical unit running staggered shifts, they work with a make-to-order model and single stores. They needed a centralised workflow to reduce daily follow-ups and keep commitments predictable.

Challenges

Assembly status was confirmed via planner’s notebook, so WIP clarity broke during extended shifts during peak weeks.

Cables shortages showed up late, causing emergency buys and delays on transformer parts.

Dispatch dates were scheduled before checks for traceability labels, causing reshuffles (inventory closing pressure).

WIP visibility without chasing when multiple orders overlapped.

Earlier, ALTOS ELECTRONICS relied on whiteboard planning and calls to confirm labeling 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 staggered shifts.

Earlier, buying for switchgear 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 transformer parts, 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 two warehouses.

Earlier, dispatch dates were committed before checks on component shortages. 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-stock model and repeat B2B buyers.
