Production Coach is the only solution that manages parts, assemblies, broken parts, shipping errors, provides user friendly assembly instructions. You can schedule your projects and track them through each stage of your factory.
RFID – (Radio-frequency identification ) – RFID tag can be attached to an product during production, which can be used to track its progress through the factory. – Is currently deployed for products and sub-assemblies. The next release will include RFID for your parts.
MAKE BETTER DECISIONS WITH YOUR DATA
Production Coach utilizes a centralized SQL database connecting both office and factory to real-time data. Web applications such as Jobsite Tracking and Timekeeping are synchronized with the Local Area Network environment.
Production Coach is modular in nature meaning that you can do as little or as much as you want with it. Successful deployment in your factory can be accomplished in days, not weeks or months.
IMPORT YOUR DATA
One of Production Coach greatest attributes is the ability to harness data, import from industry software solutions including woodCAD|CAM, Cabinet Vision, Microvellum, Cut Rite, Excel and more. Once imported Production Coach knows the products in the work order, all the parts, hardware etc.
PRODUCTION COACH
Production Coach Interface is clean and simple, basic setup includes Workorders on the left, Assemblies top middle and loose items from the assembly.
PLANNING WITH
GOOGLE CALENDARS
Automatic finite back scheduling of work orders for production, delivery and installation with unlimited calendar views.
BUSINESS
INTELLIGENCE DASHBOARD
Real-time view of important KPI such as balanced flow, bottlenecks, etc, along with BIG DATA analysis of manufacturing history.
WORK ORDER STATUS
See the real-time progress of work orders as they move through the factory and jobsite.
See status of orders or view by work center.
DAMAGED PARTS
Reports and alerts of missing or damaged parts are created and distributed automatically.
TIME KEEPING
Web based time keeping for payroll and work order costing.
SMART LABELS
Grouping by edge material or part type for next operation, automatically updated parts status, and create damaged part alerts all from a single interface.
Generate on-demand labels, control and pace off-loading and label orientation.
SORTING
A single barcode scan organizes parts by assembly and provides feedback for missing items. Assembly is notified of products ready to assemble. Sorting can be synchronized with other sorting stations: cabinet parts, doors/drawer fronts, drawer boxes, base assemblies, etc.

ASSEMBLY
Scan any part of the completed bin to start the assembly. See part details and part position with the assembly.
Reduce the need for wasteful conversations between engineering and factory floor staff.
KITTING
Create kits with unique barcode of pallets, parts, mouldings, hardware, etc. that need to be included in the shipping ticket.
Example of a label of the kit created.
STAGING
Stage products, pallets, and kits into a designated location prior to shipment.
SHIPPING
Ensure 100% accurate shipments, 100% of the time. Generate instant and electronic verification of everything scanned onto the truck.
Scanning Products Onto Truck
Report Shows All Product Loaded Onto Truck
JOBSITE TRACKING
Web application for scanning products and kits off the truck at delivery and/or at installation. Data is synchronized with Local Area Network environment.
