Industry Challenges
The real cost of the wrong system for industrial manufacturing
The industrial manufacturing sector has complexity that generic ERP simply wasn't built for. Here's where it hurts most, and how it affects your bottom line.
Multi-Level BOM Complexity Across Product Families
Industrial products often have sub-assemblies, which have sub-assemblies of their own, spanning dozens of components per finished item. Without multi-level BOM management, accurate material planning and cost rollup are impossible.
MRP Without Real-Time Inventory Visibility
Material Requirements Planning that doesn't account for current on-hand stock, in-transit purchase orders, and works-in-progress generates purchase orders for materials you already have, creating unnecessary cost and supplier relationship friction.
Capacity Planning vs Demand Fluctuations
Machine and labour capacity constraints directly limit what can be promised and when. Without a production scheduling tool that models capacity against the open order book, delivery promises are optimistic guesses.
Subcontract Operation Tracking & Cost Capture
Heat treatment, plating, powder coating, and specialist machining often go outside. Without subcontract purchase orders linked to the works order, the cost disappears from the job and your margins are systematically overstated.
Quality & Non-Conformance Management Through Production
Quality failures discovered mid-production can mean scrapping materials, rework costs, and delivery delays. Without an integrated NCR workflow that feeds back into costing and supplier management, the same failure recurs.
Tooling & Maintenance Scheduling
Machine tools, moulds, and jigs have service intervals and expected lifetimes. Without tooling records integrated with production scheduling, a machine going down for unplanned maintenance can derail an entire week's output.
Implementation
Live in 8–12 weeks
Our proven implementation methodology has delivered a 99% go-live success rate. We handle the complexity so you can focus on running your business.
Discovery & Planning
Weeks 1–2, Requirements workshops across your key teams. Process mapping, data audit, and configuration blueprint signed off before build begins.
Core Configuration
Weeks 3–4, System configured to your business rules, product structures, and workflows. Historical data migrated and validated.
Integrations & Training
Weeks 5–6, Shopify, Xero, and other integrations activated. Role-based training delivered across all key user groups.
Testing & Go-Live
Weeks 7–8, Full UAT, parallel running, and hypercare support through your first live operating cycle. We stay close until your team is confident.
Platform Modules
Everything your industrial mfg business needs, fully connected
NexWave is configured for the specific demands of industrial manufacturing, with the workflows, compliance tools, and integrations your team needs built in from day one.
Manufacturing & MRP
Multi-level BOM management, MRP-driven procurement suggestions, capacity planning against open works orders, and production scheduling, all connected to real-time stock and purchase order data.
Stock Control & Raw Materials
Real-time raw material and WIP inventory across multiple storage locations. Batch and lot tracking, cycle count scheduling, and minimum stock level automation.
Purchasing & Subcontract Management
POs for raw materials and subcontract operations, linked directly to works orders. Supplier lead time tracking, goods receipt against specifications, and subcontract cost capture on jobs.
Quality & Non-Conformance
Incoming goods inspection, in-process quality checks, and final release inspection workflows. NCR management with root cause analysis, corrective actions, and supplier debit notes.
Projects & Engineer-to-Order
Project-level cost tracking for engineer-to-order and complex make-to-order jobs. Budget vs actual by cost category, milestone billing, and integration to production and purchasing.
Tooling & Maintenance
Asset register for machines, tooling, and jigs with service interval tracking, maintenance job scheduling, and downtime recording linked to production impact reporting.
Accounting & Job Costing
Standard and actual costing, subcontract cost roll-up, Xero integration, and job-level P&L reporting. Manufacturing variance analysis between standard and actual material, labour, and overhead.
Analytics & OEE Reporting
Production throughput, OEE dashboards, on-time delivery performance, scrap and rework costs, and supplier quality trends, all in real-time.
