About APTECH CONTROL SYSTEMS

About APTECH CONTROL SYSTEMS

APTECH CONTROL SYSTEMS operates from Mumbai and builds fixtures for OEM customers. As a medium-scale engineering unit running two shifts, they work with a make-to-order model and job-site plus main warehouse. They needed a centralised workflow to reduce daily follow-ups and keep commitments predictable.

Challenges

Job Planning status was confirmed via WhatsApp-based follow-ups, so WIP clarity broke during single shift.

Jigs shortages showed up late, causing emergency buys and delays on tooling components.

Dispatch dates were cleared before checks for drawing revisions, causing reshuffles (bulk dispatch at month-end).

Earlier, APTECH CONTROL SYSTEMS relied on WhatsApp-based follow-ups and calls to confirm fitment 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 castings 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 precision 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 separate RM and FG stores.

Earlier, dispatch dates were committed before checks on drawing revisions. 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 mix of make-to-stock and make-to-order model and repeat B2B buyers.
