As a micro-scale plastics unit running two shifts, they work with a mix of make-to-stock and 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

Mixing status was reconciled via Excel-based plan, so WIP clarity broke during single shift.

Masterbatch shortages showed up late, causing emergency buys and delays on plastic housings.

Dispatch dates were promised before checks for mould changeovers, causing reshuffles (bulk dispatch at month-end).

Daily planning with one live view when the planner was on leave.

Earlier, AVM Appliances Private Limited relied on whiteboard planning and calls to confirm inspection 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 extended shifts during peak weeks.

Requirement-driven buying rhythm

Earlier, buying for inserts 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 blow-moulded bottles, 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 job-site plus main warehouse.

Dispatch readiness checks

Earlier, dispatch dates were committed before checks on mould changeovers. 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 project-based customers.
