System Design: Data is only as good as it is understandable, accurate, and accessible...
Do you ever enter data more than once? In more than one system? Do you ever have to ask someone else for information? Do you ever have to wait for someone to get out of the program you need access to? Do you ever know if the data you are looking at is wrong, or inconsistent? Do you need more people to have access to critical data? Do you spend too much time administrating, and too little time making product or sales? Do you know if you are doing things backwards?

Production Scheduling: The Production Schedule can make or break the profit...
Do you know if you can take on another Job this week, next week, or next month? Do you have enough manpower in (assembly, point to point, delivery trucks, installers) this week, next week, next month? Are you going to need overtime next week, or do you have to send people home? Do you know the status of your jobs in process, or do you have to stop and interrupt someone in the shop? Do you know if you are running close to your estimated hours? Are you sure you ordered all the materials for that job?
Top
Job Costing: It is just not enough to know if you are making or losing money, you must know WHY in order to make a difference next time...
Do you know where you are making money? Do you know where you are losing it? Do you know which jobs, or parts of jobs are profitable or not?
Top
Work in Process: I need information right now, before a problem happens, so I can do something about it...
Do you know what is going on in your shop right now? Do you know how much labor you have left on a job in process right now? Do you know what materials have not come in for a specific job? Do you have to ask someone else to get the information? Do you know for sure it is up to date?
Top
Inventory: The first rule of materials management: Never run out of materials, materials are usually cheaper than labor. The second rule of materials management: Never over buy, you are not a bank...
Do you ever run short on Material? Do you ever buy too much materials which sit on a shelf costing you cash flow? Do you know how much material you need next week, next month? Do you know what a simple change in your production schedule will do to all the other jobs needing specific material?
Top
Deposits and Progressive Billing: If you are not in business to bill customers, you are not a business...
Do you take Deposits? Do you bill in stages (progressively) for your jobs? Have you ever forgotten to bill a customer? How do you know you have billed EVERYONE?
