Project-based Manufacturing ERP Software

ERP Solution for Smarter Cost Control in Project-based Manufacturing

 

ProjectVIEW ERP is an integrated ERP for steel manufacturing companies producing coils, steel bars, structural steel, precast, and MEP elements to exact client specs tightening production control, cutting waste, and delivering on time and on budget.

Manufacturing ERP for efficient project control

ProjectVIEW ERP helps discrete manufacturers deliver to specification across EPC and PPP programs. It gives planners and plant teams the visibility to coordinate people, machines, and materials, while keeping every lot traceable and compliant.

  • See live production status, unit costs, and earned value as jobs move across stations.

  • Convert quotations faster by auto-deriving routings and materials directly from client BoQ.

  • Grow margins with capacity insights, line balancing, and make-or-buy comparisons.

  • Forecast demand and inventory precisely to avoid change-driven delays and rework.

Integrated Project Manufacturing

Turn BoQ into a production-ready BOM and routings in one flow—link items to WBS and cost codes for precise tracking from estimate to delivery. This keeps every manufactured unit tied to its originating project, activity, and budget line.

Plan and allocate machines, tools, and crews per phase. Define phased input→output steps (cutting, forming, welding, curing, assembly, QA), capture actuals per station, and monitor daily work orders per person. Track machinery output, OEE-style utilization, and downtime; schedule equipment in Gantt and calendar views via P6/MS Project integration.

Why Project-based Manufacturers Choose ProjectVIEW ERP

Fast Deployment

Out-of-the-box and ready for cloud or on-premise use, ProjectVIEW ERP typically goes live in under 7 months. It integrates seamlessly with existing business systems, with setup guided by experienced industry experts.

BoQ-to-BOM Intelligence

Import BoQ, auto-construct multi-level BOMs, allocate resources, and version budgets. Every BOM stays linked to WBS and cost codes for accurate costing, progress, and revenue recognition.

Resource & Machine Scheduling

Assign crews, machines, and tools to each phase; view bookings by calendar or Gantt; and re-sequence work to remove bottlenecks. Telematics and utilization logs show where to add shifts or maintenance.

Embedded Quality & Compliance

Attach drawings, ITPs, weld maps, cube tests, and as-built records to work orders. Control revisions, approvals, and audit trails through DMS/CDE so production always runs to the latest spec.

BIM-Connected Fabrication

Connect BIM objects and WBS for quantity takeoff, prefabrication planning, and installation sequencing. Procurement lists and shop orders update with design changes to keep steel, precast, and MEP delivery aligned.

Resource and Production Use That Reflect True Cost and Progress

From raw material consumption to fabrication output, machinery utilization, operator productivity, and subcontracted processes, ProjectVIEW ERP ensures every manufacturing step is tracked and optimized.

  • Track materials, monitor production, and manage inventory.
  • Plan and maintain machinery and tools.
  • Record labor activities, timekeeping, and payroll.
  • Inspect subcontractor progress and manage approvals.
  • Monitor daily site progress with connected documents.
  • Machineries Maintenance – Garage
  • Machineries – Assets – Tools Planning
  • Machineries – Operators Requests
  • Tools and Fittings Requests
  • Labor Planning and levelling
  • Biometrics integration (In/Out)
  • Labor Work Orders / Timekeeping
  • Employee Daily Transactions – Payroll
  • Contracts or POs are created directly in the ERP.

Frequently Asked Questions

Project-based Manufacturing ERP software is designed for manufacturers of steel, precast, and MEP elements who produce to exact project specifications. It integrates BoQ-to-BOM conversion, production planning, machine scheduling, procurement, and cost control into one platform—helping companies cut waste, improve traceability, and deliver on time and within budget.

Unlike traditional process manufacturing, project-based production must align with client BoQs, WBS structures, and cost codes. ERP systems give manufacturers real-time visibility into production status, unit costs, and earned value, enabling accurate resource allocation, tighter cost control, and faster response to change-driven demands.

The main benefits include:
BoQ-to-BOM intelligence for accurate costing and revenue recognition
Machine and crew scheduling to avoid bottlenecks
Telematics, SCADA and utilization logs to optimize capacity
Integrated procurement of raw materials, consumables, and spares
Embedded quality and compliance with full revision and audit trails

It improves efficiency by linking machines, tools, and crews to each production phase, from cutting and welding to curing, assembly, and QA. With calendar and Gantt scheduling (P6/MS Project integration), manufacturers can balance line capacity, re-sequence work, and monitor OEE-style utilization—ensuring smoother production with fewer delays.

ProjectVIEW ERP is purpose-built for construction-driven manufacturing environments, covering steel fabrication, precast concrete, and MEP production. By connecting BIM objects, BoQs, WBS, and cost codes, it keeps every manufactured unit tied to its originating project, activity, and budget line. With fast deployment, cloud or on-premises flexibility, and proven success in EPC and PPP programs, it enables manufacturers to operate with confidence, reduce costs, and grow margins
