FR Let's talk operations
Manufacturing

From raw material to shipping.

Manufacturers, machine shops and processors: work orders, production scheduling, inventory and shipping brought together in a monday.com system designed for your reality. A straightforward implementation, or a complete system with built-in AI agents.

The shop floor moves faster than the office.

The order comes in at 8. The schedule changes at 10. Inventory lives in another system, and shipping finds out at 4. That is the disconnect we close.

Coordination of manufacturing operations
Work orders

From customer order to shop floor: every job tracked, with its real status, not yesterday's.

Production scheduling

The calendar of orders, stations and priorities, visible to everyone and adjusted without rebuilding everything.

Inventory

Raw materials, work in progress and finished goods: what is on hand, what is missing, what is coming in.

Shipping

Ready orders, deadlines and customer follow-ups, from the dock to the truck.

Costs per order

Hours and materials attached to the right manufacturing order: you see the margin during production, not at quarter-end.

Already running an ERP, an MRP or Excel? They stay in place. We plug them into monday.com rather than replacing them. And the system stays flexible: it follows how you produce instead of forcing its own way on you.

The foundation is proven: in construction, every job site already runs like a manufacturer, with work orders, per-project costs and deadlines. Your shop builds on that same base, never on an adaptation.

Four agents that know the shop floor.

Configured inside monday.com around how you produce, first names included. They prepare the work. Your people keep the decisions.

Bernard · Production assistant

Compiles the progress of every order, the delays and the bottlenecks on the floor; the picture is ready in monday.com before the shift starts. Your team decides: priorities and the schedule.

Diane · Accounts payable

Matches every invoice to the right supplier and the right purchase or manufacturing order, then builds the approval request at the right moment. Your team decides: pay, send back or adjust.

Nora · Quality documentation

Spec sheets, material certificates, lot traceability: it flags the missing piece before the audit and keeps every quality record complete. Your team has the final say on what goes to the customer or the auditor.

Sam · Quotes

Gathers the context of every request for pricing: drawings, specifications, quantities; it prepares the custom quote. Your team decides: pricing and sending.

The implementation can stay entirely simple, with no AI. Agents are added only where they create concrete value.

Four stops, and you approve each one.

The first useful process is in service, typically within 4 to 8 weeks. After that, the system grows with your production.

Stop 01Map

We listen: planning, purchasing, shift leads, shipping. We follow a customer order from quote to delivery and a work order from launch to close, before configuring anything. What you get: the exact picture of the gaps between the office and the shop floor.

Stop 02Design

We draw one single process first, often work orders or the production schedule. Agent roles and their limits are drawn in, and you approve the whole thing before any configuration. What we hand you: a plan your people validated, step by step.

Stop 03Deploy

Deployment happens with your real manufacturing orders, not a test environment; teams are trained on it, in the office and on the floor. What we hand you: a first useful process from the first phase.

Stop 04Transfer

From there, your team adds products, lines and boards on its own. We stay available in support, through an hour bank if needed. What we hand you: a system that grows without depending on us.

What you want to know before calling.

Your question is not here? You will talk to the person who would do the work in your business.

Let's talk operations

We already run an ERP, an MRP or Excel. Do we have to change everything?

No. Your tools stay in place: we connect them to monday.com instead of replacing them. The migration happens in phases, one perimeter at a time; your relevant historical data comes along, the mess stays behind. When your operations outgrow monday.com, we can also connect the systems that matter to your business, including Odoo.

Can a flexible system really handle a shop floor?

That is exactly the point. The system adapts to your operations: statuses, steps and responsibilities follow how you produce, and they evolve when it changes. You do not reorganize the shop to please a piece of software.

Can we track costs per manufacturing order?

It is the core of what we implement: shop hours (with Horizon Clock, our time-tracking tool built into monday.com), material purchases (read by OCR by Horizon) and subcontracting, attached to the right order. You see the margin during production, not at the end of the quarter.

Where does AI fit in our shop?

A useful place, not a spectacular one: preparing follow-ups, gathering context, flagging a delay or a shortage before it costs you. Agents work inside your monday.com system; the important decisions stay with your people.

Last stop

Your system should give
you direction.

Show us what gets lost between the shop floor and the office. Then:

A real person reads your message. We reply in under 24 business hours, in English or French.
30 minutes on the phone, no commitment. With the person who would do the work in your business.
You leave knowing which process to structure first. Work orders, schedule or inventory: we name the starting point, with us or without us.
