MACHINE SHOPS
Machine shop software that closes the loop on quoting
Machine shop profitability is a feedback loop: quote, run the job, find out what it really cost, quote better next time. Break the loop and you are guessing forever. Zevonix Business Suite records material, setup and run hours against the job so the next quote is based on evidence.
THE QUOTING LOOP
Where machine shop margin is decided
Repeat work makes accurate history valuable and its absence expensive.
Quotes have no history behind them
The same part quoted three times at three prices because nobody recorded what it cost to run.
Setup time disappears
Setup is the difference between profit and loss on short runs, and it is rarely captured separately.
Material is not tied to the job
Bar stock and tooling bought in bulk, so job cost excludes the biggest variable.
Repeat orders get re-quoted from scratch
No record of the last run means every repeat is a fresh estimate and a fresh risk.
ONE PLATFORM, NOT SIX TOOLS
How Zevonix Business Suite runs a machine shop
Quotes, jobs, material and hours on one ledger.
Quotes and Deals
Send a quote, track it against the account, then convert the accepted one once into a project, work order or invoice.
Projects and Job Costing
Budget a job by cost type — labour, material, equipment, subcontractor, overhead — then watch budget against actual and read profitability and labour utilisation.
Purchase Orders and Suppliers
Material and tooling bought against the job.
Stock and Products
Raw material and finished parts tracked as they move.
Employees and Attendance
Setup and run hours captured against the job.
Reports and Analytics
Actual against quoted, per job and per part.
END TO END
A production job, end to end
- 1. The RFQ is quoted
Tracked as a deal with the estimate recorded against the account. - 2. The job is set up
A project with tasks for setup, run and finishing. - 3. Material is purchased against it
Purchase orders reference the job so cost is attributable. - 4. Hours are captured
Setup and run time recorded where the work happens. - 5. Bill it, then read the result
Invoice from the job, then compare budget against actual by cost type in Job Costing before the next estimate goes out.
