Industries · Wood & Furniture

From order to assembled piece, without the workarounds.

Furniture and wood processing combine panel cutting, machining, finishing and assembly, often make-to-order. Metalya receives orders from the ERP, follows them through the plant and reports progress back.

The context

What makes it difficult.

High variant counts, orders that must converge at assembly and packing, and finishing steps with drying times. Many plants run on ERP plus spreadsheets plus paper travellers.

  • 01

    Orders split across tools

    Production orders pass through several systems with manual re-keying.

  • 02

    Components that do not converge

    Parts for one order finish days apart, so assembly waits.

  • 03

    Finishing as a black box

    Lacquering and drying times are not visible to planning.

  • 04

    Progress reported late

    Sales and customer service cannot see where an order is.
