About UNIVERSAL WIRE FORMS

About UNIVERSAL WIRE FORMS

UNIVERSAL WIRE FORMS is a small electrical manufacturing unit based in Thane. 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

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

No simple view of vendor-wise delays, so the same issues repeated every month.

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

Before: Too many moving parts, no single view

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 a centralised workflow where each order, material requirement and update had a clear owner and timestamp. Collections follow-ups moved to a single list with dispute tagging so teams stopped chasing the wrong invoices. The practical outcome was that teams stopped re-entering the same data and acted on exceptions early.

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. The practical outcome was smoother handovers between departments and more predictable daily execution.

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 centralised workflow where each order, material requirement and update had a clear owner and timestamp. Masters were cleaned once, and daily reporting pulled from the same transactions instead of manual consolidation. The practical outcome was fewer escalations, faster decisions, and dates that changed less often.
