Auto Components ERP

Kreon's auto parts manufacturing ERP is for component makers who supply vehicle manufacturers and larger component companies. Your customer's schedule changes every week, and one bad part can bring a complaint that stops their line. The system plans to the schedule and keeps each lot traceable from raw material heat to invoice, so you answer with records.

What makes it different

Built for the way your trade works.

Suits suppliers to vehicle makers and larger component companies, where delivery schedules change weekly and every rejected part must be traced back to its batch.

01

Customer delivery schedules converted into daily production and dispatch plans

02

Lot traceability from raw material heat to finished part and invoice

03

Operation-wise routing with in-process inspection at each stage

  • Outside processes like plating and heat treatment tracked on job work challans
  • Rejection and rework recorded with reason, operator and PPM by part
  • Die, fixture and gauge life with calibration due dates
  • Customer part number, drawing revision and packing standard on labels
  • Schedule versus supply and pending quantity by customer
  • Part costing by operation, cycle time and material weight
How the work flows

A day's work, in order.

Step 01

Load the schedule

Customer schedules are entered part-wise and compared with stock and pending production.

Step 02

Plan the day

Daily production and dispatch plans are made by part, machine and shift.

Step 03

Issue by heat

Bar, sheet or castings are issued with the supplier's heat or lot number.

Step 04

Run the operations

Each operation is booked on the route card with quantity, rejection and inspection result.

Step 05

Send outside processes

Plating or heat treatment goes out on a job work challan and returns to the same lot.

Step 06

Inspect and dispatch

Final inspection clears the lot, labels print with the customer part number, and the invoice follows.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Our customer revises the schedule mid-month. Can it cope?

Yes. A revised schedule replaces the old one, and the system shows what has changed against stock, work in progress and material on order. Your planner sees shortfalls and excess part-wise the same day.

Can we trace a rejected part back to its raw material?

Yes. Each production lot carries the heat or lot number of the material issued, the operations done and the inspection results. From an invoice or lot number you can see all of it, and which other dispatches used the same material.

Does it track gauges and calibration?

Yes. Dies, fixtures and gauges are kept in a register with usage and calibration due dates. The system reminds you before a gauge falls due, so inspection is not done on an expired instrument.

How is PPM calculated?

Rejections are entered with reason, operation and operator at each stage, and customer returns are recorded against the invoice. The system works out PPM, parts per million rejected, for each part and customer over any period.

Does Auto Components ERP work on mobile?

Yes. It runs on Web and Android, so people on the floor, in the field or on the road work on the phone while the office works on the full screens.

Can Auto Components ERP be changed to fit how my business works?

Yes. Kreon builds and supports it, so screens, reports, approvals and rules are shaped to your process. Tell us what is different about the way you work and we will show you how it fits before anything is built.
