For a small manufacturing plant

One board for the plant. What’s running, what’s late, what’s tying up cash.

Built for small Australian manufacturers and fab shops — factory floor, bays and WIP. Mornings disappear into the job book. A quote goes cold while everyone is on the tools. Cash sits in unfinished work. An invoice still isn’t sent. This is where MyIndustryBuddy can help.

01 — Tour

One board. Floor phone and office desk.

Same plant, two views. Walk the floor with the phone. Run the week from the desk. Insights first — running work, late jobs, quiet quotes, unpaid invoices, cash in WIP, quoted vs actual.

Floor phone

What’s in each bay, what’s late, who to chase next. Built for a supervisor walk-around — not a van crew board.

Office desk

The full week on a wide board: quotes going quiet, invoices still out, cash tied in unfinished jobs, margin drift.

Open the full board

Chase list

Call, chase, send, book. Tick it when it’s done. Same pattern as Trade Buddy — plant facts, not site visits.

The board on the right is a worked example from a small fab plant — same shape as the week you would run.

02 — On the floor

By hand, or fed from the books — you choose.
