Materials & Production Management

Connect material demand, production and site delivery

The Materials & Production Management Module ensures efficient Just-in-Time (JIT) delivery and optimizes Production and Off-Site Manufacturing (OSM) workflows in strict alignment with construction specifications, quality standards, and fabrication protocols.

The module facilitates project-centric production (materials and services), job tracking, end-to-end materials handling, and cost control aligned with each project's ongoing requirements.

Materials management software for capital projects

Materials management software for capital projects controls materials from the warehouse to the work face. In addition, it manages coding, receipts, stock, issues and transfers across all sites. In ProjectVIEW ERP, the system charges every issue to a project, BoQ item and cost code. As a result, material cost reaches cost control without double entry.

Key Features

  • Site Item Request (SIR) based on Budget
  • Warehouse Stock Inspection
  • Transform SIR based on Existence (SIV-MRF)
  • Creation GRN based on Order
  • GRN to Cost for direct consumed materials
  • Transform Internal Order to SIV
  • Transfer Materials Project to Project
  • Materials Serial No and Logistics Management
  • Monitor Expiration Date of Materials
  • General and BoQ-based Production Planning
  • Production Phases in sequence or parallel
  • Define Phase method with Semi/Input/Output
  • Assign specialties or each Phase
  • Assign machinery types for each Phase
  • Assign general expenses and Subcontractors
  • Check availability and assign resources
  • Monitor labor based on machinery availability
  • Cost calculation of the final production unit
  • Compare planning vs actual cost vs resources
  • Monitor production per BIM object/entity

Materials & Production Management

Plan materials and production for each BoQ line. Warehouses, stock and goods receipts link to the project budget. Production orders split into phases with planned cost and work hours, for prefabrication and offsite manufacturing.

  • Warehouses, stock and goods receipts per project
  • Production phases with planned cost and work hours
  • Material cost and unit price variance against the budget

What ProjectVIEW Materials & Production Management contains

  • Material and product coding: company or CSI-based classification with attributes prevents duplicate items, so the data stays clean.
  • Multiple units of measure: automatic conversion between order, stock and use units, so quantities always match.
  • Goods received notes (GRN): deliveries go to stock or straight to project cost, so receipts show at once.
  • Internal orders and store issues: the system charges issues to project, area and cost center, so every cost has a clear source.
  • Store-to-store transfers: transfers follow WBS milestones, with logistics status and expiry dates.
  • QR-code warehouse: each item carries a QR code with material, project and bin location, so teams find items fast.
  • Production and prefabrication: teams define products as recipes of materials for offsite and modular manufacturing (OSM).

Why it matters in project-based ERP

  • Less waste and loss: stock in all stores and sites is visible in one place, so waste and loss fall.
  • Right material, right time: transfers and orders follow the schedule, so material arrives on time.
  • Accurate material cost: consumption per BoQ item shows actual against budget quantities, so variances show early.
  • Reusable assets under control: the system tracks scaffolding and formwork piece by piece on every site.

Site apps and add-ons

  • Site internal order app: site teams order from stock and check availability. They also track each order.
  • Mobile QR app: receive, issue and count materials with a phone. Then the movement shows in the system at once.
  • Scaffolding and formwork management: the system tracks sets and pieces against vendor specifications.
FAQ

FAQ: project materials management

What is project materials management?

It is the control of materials from purchase to installation. Specifically, it covers coding, receipts, stock, issues, transfers and consumption against the work. It serves construction, shipbuilding and repair, marine and offshore, mining and quarrying, and project-based manufacturing companies.

Which stock costing methods does ProjectVIEW ERP support?

It supports average price, FIFO and LIFO costing. The method follows company policy.

Can ProjectVIEW ERP manage several warehouses and sites?

Yes. It shows stock in all stores and sites. It also manages store-to-store transfers with status and expiry dates.

Does it support prefabrication and offsite manufacturing?

Yes. Teams define products as recipes of materials. Consequently, production, prefabrication and modular manufacturing use the same material codes and costs.
