About CSR FORGING PVT. LTD.

CSR FORGING PVT. LTD. operates from Patiala and builds plastic housings for distributors.

Challenges

Packing status was reconciled via planner’s notebook, so WIP clarity broke during two shifts.

Cartons shortages showed up late, causing emergency buys and delays on moulded inserts.

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

Earlier, CSR FORGING PVT. LTD. relied on whiteboard planning and calls to confirm packing 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.

Requirement-driven buying rhythm

Requirement-driven buying rhythm

Earlier, buying for granules 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 injection-moulded 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.

Promise dates with readiness gates

Earlier, dispatch dates were committed before checks on colour consistency. 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.
