Inside Parko Abrasives

Parko Abrasives is a small fabrication manufacturing unit based in Faridabad. 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

Rejections were logged on paper; rework cost showed up only after dispatch was missed.

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

Store stock looked fine on paper but production bins were empty when job cards started.

Implementation: Centralised workflow with clear owners

Earlier, QC holds and rework notes were kept on paper and were not visible to planning. This broke down during rejections; without traceability, isolating root cause took days and blocked dispatch. We implemented a centralised workflow where each order, material requirement and update had a clear owner and timestamp. QC marked holds against lots, and planners saw only cleared stock as available for production. 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 structured stage-wise tracking and checklists so work moved forward only when prerequisites were met. The purchase team used one follow-up queue, logged committed dates, and escalated exceptions early. It also made owner reviews easier because key exceptions were visible without chasing the team. The practical outcome was fewer escalations, faster decisions, and dates that changed less often.

Controlling rework through traceability and holds

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 single system of record connecting sales, purchase, production and dispatch so everyone worked off the same status. Supervisors started reviewing shortages at shift start and raised purchase/transfer requests before the line was blocked. For fabrication operations in Faridabad, this reduced dependence on a single person for updates. The practical outcome was smoother handovers between departments and more predictable daily execution.
