Manufacturing ERP
Purchase, GRN, multi-store inventory, production planning, sales orders, dispatch, invoicing support and audit trails in one system.
Manufacturing Software Development
Manufacturing software development company in India
ABT Consultancy Services designs and builds custom software for manufacturing and industrial companies — ERP, production tracking, quality, HR and machine-data applications that fit how your plant actually runs.
Most factories we meet run on a mix of Excel sheets, WhatsApp groups, paper registers and one or two generic tools that only half fit. We replace that with connected manufacturing software built around your shop-floor workflow, your terminology and your reports — and we start with the module that removes the biggest bottleneck first.
Custom manufacturing software we build
Production tracking & OEE
Live shop-floor dashboards, machine utilization, downtime reasons, shift reports and batch traceability from raw material to dispatch.
Quality management (QMS)
Incoming and in-process inspection, non-conformance, CAPA, document control and audit-ready compliance dashboards.
HRMS for factory teams
Biometric attendance, shifts, leave, appraisals, employee self-service and payroll-ready data for plant and office staff.
Maintenance & issue tracking
Breakdown and plant tickets with priority, SLA, escalation, root-cause records and recurring-issue reports.
Industrial IoT & analytics
PLC and sensor data, energy and machine monitoring, anomaly alerts and predictive maintenance dashboards.
Results from manufacturing software we have delivered
Industrial minerals: production tracking across 3 units
A growing mineral solutions company tracked production across multiple processing units in spreadsheets. ABT built a unified production tracking system with real-time dashboards across 3 processing units and full batch traceability from raw input to dispatch — cutting reporting errors by 70%.
Cable manufacturing: one ERP for five departments
A cable manufacturer ran purchase, inventory, production and dispatch on disconnected tools. ABT delivered a tailored ERP that brought every department onto one platform, with automated invoice and delivery note generation — reducing manual data entry by 60%.
Why manufacturers choose custom software over generic products
- Fits your process: production stages, batch and lot rules, approvals and documents mirror your plant instead of a template.
- Faster adoption: supervisors and operators see screens in the language they already use.
- Pay for what you use: start with one or two modules, then extend — no per-seat licences for features nobody opens.
- Connected data: ERP, production, quality, HR and machine data share one database, so management reports are not stitched together by hand.
- You own it: the software evolves with new product lines, plants and customers without waiting on a vendor roadmap.
Industries we build software for
- Cable and wire manufacturing
- Electronics and EMS assembly
- Pharma, chemicals and process industries
- Industrial minerals, mining and processing
- General and multi-line manufacturing plants replacing Excel-led workflows
- Logistics, warehousing, energy and utilities
How a custom manufacturing software project runs
- Plant walkthrough and discovery: we map the current process, registers, reports and pain points with the people who run them.
- Blueprint: modules, user roles, screens, integrations and data migration are agreed before development starts.
- Milestone builds: working modules are demonstrated every few weeks so plant and office teams validate early.
- Go-live and training: UAT, deployment, user training and a 90-day warranty on new systems.
- Ongoing support: enhancements, fixes and new modules under an SLA as operations grow.
Focused systems often go live in 2 to 8 weeks. Larger ERP programmes are phased so the factory sees value from the first module instead of waiting for a big-bang launch.
Frequently asked questions
What does a manufacturing software development company build?
Applications around factory operations: ERP for purchase, inventory and dispatch, production tracking and OEE dashboards, quality inspections and CAPA, attendance and shift management, maintenance ticketing and machine data analytics.
Should a factory buy off-the-shelf software or build custom?
Off-the-shelf works when processes are standard. Custom software is the better choice when production stages, batch rules, approvals, dispatch documents or multi-plant inventory do not fit a generic product without heavy workarounds.
How long does custom manufacturing software take to build?
Focused systems often go live in 2–8 weeks. Multi-module ERP is delivered in milestones over a few months, with working modules demonstrated along the way.
Can it connect to our machines, Tally or existing tools?
Yes. We integrate accounting software, biometric devices, PLCs and sensors and other business tools so data is entered once and reused across departments.
Do you work with manufacturers outside Bangalore?
Yes. ABT is based in Bangalore and works with manufacturers across India, combining remote delivery with on-site visits for discovery, training and go-live.
