Operators walk to the office to ask what is next, travelers go missing, and the schedule is out of date by mid-morning. ShopXpert production management software connects Jobs, Workstation, Tasks, and Planning, so office and shop-floor teams work from the same live information.
The work is rarely the problem. Getting the right information to the right person at the right time is.
The problemEvery job is set up from scratch, and nobody can see all of them in one place.
Start jobs from templates with stages and tasks already assigned to the right people. Set priorities and deadlines for each stage and task, and see what is new, due today, due this week, and overdue.
Every job keeps its history, so the next similar job is faster to plan and easier to quote and cost.
The problemOperators lose time finding the next job, the right drawing, and someone to ask.
Operators log in with their badge, then find the job by scanning the job card or entering the serial number. They see stages, tasks, attachments, and notes, and record progress as they go.
Run Workstation on tablets, rugged XpertTab devices, or large 43-inch kiosks, with an interactive 3D viewer for STEP files. See the Workstation screens and hardware you can order with ShopXpert.
The problemPaper travelers get lost, marked up, or replaced by an old revision.
Attach drawings, 3D models, instructions, and messages to the job. Operators open them at the workstation, so there is no paper traveler to lose and no outdated copy on the bench.
QR codes on jobs, sales orders, and purchase orders take anyone straight to the right record.
The problemSetups, cleanups, and follow-ups are handed out verbally and forgotten by the next shift.
Use Tasks for everything that is not a job step: setups, cleanups, follow-ups, and recurring checks, each with an owner, a deadline, and its own chat.
The Time Clock records clock-ins, breaks, and shifts on the ShopXpert TimeClock Tablet, and operators log time against the job at the workstation, so labor is accurate without timesheets.
The problemThe schedule is a whiteboard, and it is wrong by mid-morning.
Drag jobs on a Gantt board, and let ShopXpert set start and end times from machine and employee availability. Link dependent steps, compare planned against actual, and find the bottleneck before it stops the floor.
Changes to the plan reach the workstations right away, so everyone works to the same priorities.
Jobs move from station to station, and every step is recorded where it happens.
PlanJobs are scheduled on the Gantt board by real availability.
QueueEach workstation shows its next job in priority order.
RunOperators open drawings and record time and progress.
Move OnThe job moves to the next station, and the plan updates.
Less walking, less paper, and fewer surprises.
Workstations always show the right job in the right order.
Current drawings and instructions live on the job.
Status comes from the floor in real time.
Bottlenecks show up while there is still time to act.
Production data is most useful when it reaches costing, machines, and maintenance.
