Custom Software for the Manufacturing Industry

Are you looking for custom software for manufacturing? The manufacturing industry has to deal with all sorts of problems and challenges. Often, your standard off-the-shelf software isn’t going to be enough to meet those needs or live up to those challenges. Between all the complexities that come with machinery and all of the interactions between employees, managers, and clients, manufacturing companies need more from their software than standardized options can provide. They need software that can balance all of these challenges with accuracy and efficiency.

To get the right software, manufacturers should choose a company that understands the industry. At Ayoka Systems, we have years of experience developing custom software for manufacturing. We work with manufacturing companies, taking time to get to know our clients so that we can meet all of their software needs.

Better Machinery Control

When manufacturers come to us with their software needs, they often mention the need for better machinery control. Custom software for manufacturing can help. In manufacturing, any slight change in machinery can make a huge difference. Different pressures, temperatures, and vibrations can cause problems and bring production to a halt. Ayoka can help you monitor your machines so that you can look for these small changes. Furthermore, custom software can also help you control the machinery settings. By noticing these small changes as they happen, you can save money and time on costly repairs later.

Business Intelligence for Manufacturing

The manufacturing industry comes with a lot of opportunities to collect and use data. However, those opportunities go to waste when a company doesn’t have the right tools. This is where business intelligence software comes in. Business intelligence software allows manufacturing companies to use data to improve their business practices. Managers can collect data from different parts of the business. For example, a company may use this data to examine their inventory. This way, they can order new supplies as needed and spend less money on the supplies that don’t move as well as the others. Manufacturing companies may also use business intelligence for employee management. For instance, when many employees don’t work regular 9 to 5 hours, business intelligence can help the company manage and post schedules. 

Business intelligence software can provide data mining and automated reporting so that manufacturers can make changes as needed. As a result, this software can help manufacturing businesses save time, keep customers satisfied, and potentially increase their revenue.

Customer Service Management

Speaking of satisfied customers, custom software for manufacturing can also improve a business’s customer service practices. First, companies can use the data we mentioned above to improve their communication. The information shows managers when and where customer service is needed the most. Second, custom software can provide forms and other means of customer relations so that customers can communicate more easily with the company. Finally, custom software can help these companies provide better and faster responsiveness, which, once again, leads to more customer satisfaction.

Custom Mobile Apps

As we’ve pointed out, adding mobility to your custom software can benefit your business in several different ways. Manufacturing businesses will notice the benefits of having mobile software built specifically for their companies. When your software is designed to work with your machinery, your communications, and your business practices, your company will run much more smoothly than it would have run with software that doesn’t conform to your business needs.

You can use custom mobile software in a lot of different ways. For example, you might use your mobile app to work with the PLC devices that will manage your machines. We already mentioned better machine control with custom software. With a mobile application, that machine control can become even easier and faster. You might also use mobility to communicate with your customers or with people within the company. In manufacturing, communication is essential, and a mobile app can make it easier and more efficient.

Room for Growth

The problem with off-the-shelf software is that for many industries, much of the technologies in these softwares are already obsolete. By the time they reach the shelves, these mass-produced softwares have already fallen behind many of the industry changes. Custom software, on the other hand, is better equipped to anticipate change. It provides the scalability that an individual company needs to adapt to different changes. As a result, when the company evolves, it won’t have to make expensive software changes.
