simtac at a glance

simtac at a glance

simtac is a micro engineering manufacturing unit based in Karnal. 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

QC holds were not reflected in available stock, leading to accidental usage.

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

Production plan changed multiple times a day due to capacity conflicts and material gaps.

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.

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. The practical outcome was fewer escalations, faster decisions, and dates that changed less often.

Earlier, the daily plan was decided in fragments—by urgency, not by capacity and material signals. This broke down as soon as urgent orders came in; jobs were half-started and WIP piled up across stages. We implemented a centralised workflow where each order, material requirement and update had a clear owner and timestamp. Planning moved to a simple daily schedule linked to orders, capacity and material, reducing last-minute reshuffles. The practical outcome was fewer escalations, faster decisions, and dates that changed less often.
