About BURSTER MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS PVT LTD

About BURSTER MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS PVT LTD

BURSTER MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS PVT LTD operates from Kanchipuram and builds custom spares for OEM customers. As a small-scale engineering unit running staggered shifts, they work with a mix of make-to-stock and make-to-order model and two warehouses. They needed a centralised workflow to reduce daily follow-ups and keep commitments predictable.

Stage-wise ownership and handovers

Stage-wise ownership and handovers

Earlier, BURSTER MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS PVT LTD relied on whiteboard planning and calls to confirm machining 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 single shift.

Requirement-driven buying rhythm

Requirement-driven buying rhythm

Earlier, buying for bought-outs 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 sub-assemblies, 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.

Promise dates with readiness gates

Promise dates with readiness gates

Earlier, dispatch dates were committed before checks on custom job tracking. 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 project-based customers.
