Inside ELMRAD ENGINEERING CO PVT LTD

Inside ELMRAD ENGINEERING CO PVT LTD

ELMRAD ENGINEERING CO PVT LTD is a micro engineering manufacturing unit based in Vadodara. Their day-to-day work involves coordinating orders, material availability, production execution and dispatch commitments. Earlier, updates were shared through a mix of Excel sheets, calls and WhatsApp, which made it hard to keep everyone aligned. By moving to a centralised workflow, the team standardised handovers, reduced rework in reporting, and improved execution predictability.

Challenges

Shortage was detected only when the supervisor walked the floor, not when planning was done.

PO approvals got stuck with managers, leading to last-minute buying and frequent expedite.

Transporter availability was confirmed late, so finished goods piled up near the gate.

Vendor coordination with structured PO follow-ups

Earlier, store stock, WIP and finished goods were tracked in separate sheets and message threads. This broke down whenever priorities changed—material looked available, but the line stalled due to bin-level shortages. We implemented a centralised workflow where each order, material requirement and update had a clear owner and timestamp. Supervisors started reviewing shortages at shift start and raised purchase/transfer requests before the line was blocked. The practical outcome was smoother handovers between departments and more predictable daily execution.

Dispatch readiness built into the daily routine

Earlier, vendor follow-ups were call-driven and depended on whoever remembered to push. This broke down during peak load—approvals got delayed and committed dates slipped without a simple exception view. We implemented a single system of record connecting sales, purchase, production and dispatch so everyone worked off the same status. The purchase team used one follow-up queue, logged committed dates, and escalated exceptions early. The practical outcome was fewer escalations, faster decisions, and dates that changed less often.

Earlier, dispatch readiness depended on people coordinating invoice, packing and transporter on calls. This broke down when transporter slots moved; finished goods were ready but paperwork and packing lagged behind. We implemented a centralised workflow where each order, material requirement and update had a clear owner and timestamp. Dispatch checklists were run a day ahead so invoicing, packing and transporter booking stayed aligned. The practical outcome was smoother handovers between departments and more predictable daily execution.
