Case Study
Overview
Built a production management platform to track inventory, schedule production, and monitor the full warehouse flow from raw materials to finished goods.
Problem
Operations relied on spreadsheets and disconnected systems, leading to stock mismatches, delayed schedules, and poor visibility into production performance.
Goals
- Improve inventory accuracy to 97–99%.
- Reduce order processing time by 30–40%.
- Maintain schedule adherence above 90%.
- Provide real-time visibility into production stages and bottlenecks.
- Integrate with upstream inventory and downstream fulfillment systems.
Approach
- Used a Rails-based system for rapid delivery of production, inventory, and scheduling modules.
- Leveraged Sidekiq for background processing of order flows and automated scheduling.
- Added Elasticsearch for fast search and traceability across items, batches, and work orders.
- Focused reporting on operational KPIs instead of heavy BI tooling to keep insights immediate.
Solution
A warehouse management web app that unifies inventory, production scheduling, order processing, and operational reporting with role-based dashboards.
Outcomes
- Reduced manual coordination and improved visibility across the production line.
- Lowered stock discrepancies and improved on-time order completion.
- Enabled faster decision-making through live dashboards and KPI reporting.
