Structural fabrication, machining and custom-build shops win one job at a time. Fast Project Management turns each job into a project: quote it from a real Bill of Resources, break it into tasks on a Gantt, issue material against each task, track progress and logs, and bill by project or milestone — so nothing runs off a paper traveller.
The price goes out on gut feel and last job's memory. When plate, sections, welding hours and machine time aren't costed, the margin on a job is a surprise at the end, not a decision at the start.
The router walks the bay on a clipboard. Nobody upstream can see which stage a job is at, whether it is blocked, or that a late weld is about to miss the dispatch date on the other side of the shop.
Plate and consumables leave the store on a slip. By month end the store doesn't reconcile, and nobody can say which job ate the extra section or where the offcuts went.
Longer jobs need a progress claim at material-in and at fabrication-complete, but without task-keyed, resource-itemised bills each claim is stitched together from scratch and rarely matches what was done.
Every fabrication and job-work order follows the same controlled path, whatever it is built to — so the shop runs on a plan and a Bill of Resources, not on a clipboard and memory.
Fast Project Management gives fabrication and job-work shops the job control they keep trying to build with quote sheets and paper travellers — with the costing and progress measurement built in.
Open each job as a project with its own customer, type, dates and budget, and build a per-task Bill of Resources of the plate, sections, consumables, welding and machine hours it will consume, priced from the Resource master. Cost estimation rolls it up so the quote is grounded in a real resource plan — and when the job is won, the very same project becomes what you schedule, resource and bill against, with no re-keying.
Break the job into a work breakdown of tasks — cutting, forming, welding, machining, fit-up, finishing, dispatch — each with an owner, an assigned user, a priority, a progress % and predecessor dependencies. The Gantt Chart lays every task out as a bar by its start, finish and duration; slip a task and the downstream bars shift, so a late weld shows up before it misses dispatch on the other side of the bay.
Draw material from stock against a task through the shared store and issue engine, and raise a project purchase requisition for bought-out items — brackets, fasteners, paint, gas. Because issue is booked task by task, the plate, sections and consumables charged to a job build up as real consumption and real actual cost against the quoted BOR — so the store reconciles and each job's true material spend is on the record.
Each task carries a progress % that rolls up to the job, a dated task log records what happened and when, and file attachments hold GA drawings, weld maps, inspection reports and photos against the task. Read the project MIS to see estimated versus actual by task, progress roll-up and schedule status across every open job — and ask Dhruv AI, in plain English, which jobs are behind or over quote.
Raise a project bill against the job and party with resource-itemised lines keyed to tasks — so you bill by project, by resource, or by milestone, including progress and RA bills for a stage such as material-in, fabrication-complete or dispatch. Subcontractor and supplier bills for outsourced galvanising, machining or transport are passed and cleared against their purchase order, and every bill prints as a document from the shared party master.
Each job as a project with owner, customer, type, dates, budget and progress, and Active / Inactive / On Hold / Completed lifecycle tabs across the shop.
Cut, weld, machine and fit-up tasks with owner, assigned user, priority and progress %, predecessor dependencies, dated logs and file attachments.
Interactive Gantt with task bars by start/finish and duration, predecessor sequencing, plus a resource-wise Project Gantt Chart view.
Per-task BOR of plate, sections, consumables, welding and machine hours, cost estimation and BOR cost analysis against the quote and budget.
Resource master of machines, welders and tools with rate, working hours and efficiency, grouped and categorised, feeding every task BOR.
Resource-itemised bills by project, resource or milestone, progress and RA bills, subcontractor bill passing against PO, and a printable bill.
Yes. Open the job as a project, build a per-task Bill of Resources priced from the Resource master, and cost estimation grounds the quote — the same project then becomes the live job.
Break it into cut, weld, machine and fit-up tasks with predecessors; the Gantt lays each out as a bar by start, finish and duration, with a resource-wise Project Gantt too.
Yes. Store issue is booked task by task on the shared ledger, with a project purchase requisition for bought-out items — so consumption ties back to the job and the quote.
Each task carries a progress % that rolls up to the job, a dated task log records what happened, and drawings, weld maps and photos attach to the task.
Yes. Raise resource-itemised, task-keyed progress and RA bills for a stage — material-in, fabrication-complete, dispatch — and pass subcontractor bills against PO.
