Workflow automation for furniture businesses
A furniture order passes through sales, material planning, the workshop, finishing, storage and delivery. Each handoff is a place where information can be dropped, and every dropped detail becomes a delayed delivery or an unhappy customer. Automation closes those gaps.
- Accepted orders become workshop jobs automatically
- Material needs calculated from the order specification
- Production status visible to the showroom without asking
- Delivery scheduled from what is actually ready
The handoffs that cause delays
Sales to workshop
The agreed specification does not travel with the order, so the workshop builds from memory.
Order to materials
Material needs are worked out late, and shortages appear during assembly.
Production to showroom
The showroom cannot tell a customer where their order is without walking to the workshop.
Workshop to delivery
Deliveries are promised without confirming what is genuinely finished.
The steps that can run without chasing
Order confirmation
A confirmed order generates the workshop job with the full specification attached.
Material calculation
Required materials are calculated from the order and checked against stock.
Shortage flagging
Anything missing is flagged at order time rather than at assembly.
Production status
Status updates in the workshop are immediately visible to the showroom.
Delivery scheduling
Only completed pieces are offered for delivery, and the customer is notified.
Payment tracking
Deposits and balances are tracked automatically against the order.
