Inside Shanta Products

Shanta Products is a micro packaging manufacturing unit based in Mumbai. 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

Short/excess at dispatch led to urgent rework and multiple trips between store and floor.

Month-end reporting became a rework exercise because data lived in multiple files and chats.

Receivable status changed daily because part-payments were not tagged to specific invoices.

After: Predictable execution, fewer escalations

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 structured stage-wise tracking and checklists so work moved forward only when prerequisites were met. Dispatch checklists were run a day ahead so invoicing, packing and transporter booking stayed aligned. For packaging operations in Mumbai, this reduced dependence on a single person for updates. The practical outcome was that teams stopped re-entering the same data and acted on exceptions early.

Controlling rework through traceability and holds

Earlier, masters and transactions were split across Excel, accounting exports and WhatsApp updates. This broke down at month-end; teams rebuilt the same report multiple times and still debated the numbers. We implemented a single system of record connecting sales, purchase, production and dispatch so everyone worked off the same status. Masters were cleaned once, and daily reporting pulled from the same transactions instead of manual consolidation. For packaging operations in Mumbai, this reduced dependence on a single person for updates. The practical outcome was smoother handovers between departments and more predictable daily execution.

Vendor coordination with structured PO follow-ups

Earlier, collections follow-ups were scattered and disputes reopened older invoices. This broke down on part-payments; the receivable view changed daily and escalations increased. We implemented structured stage-wise tracking and checklists so work moved forward only when prerequisites were met. Collections follow-ups moved to a single list with dispute tagging so teams stopped chasing the wrong invoices. Over time, the team built confidence because the numbers matched what they saw on the floor. The practical outcome was fewer escalations, faster decisions, and dates that changed less often.
