Enterprise Management
Joinery Core
ur software is a purpose-built workshop and manufacturing management platform developed within a live joinery manufacturing environment.
The solution helps manufacturers manage projects, customers, quotations, materials, stock, production workflows and workshop operations from a single integrated system.
Key capabilities include:
• Customer and project management
• Quotation and job tracking
• Material allocation and stock control
• Production planning and workflow management
• Workshop worksheet generation
• Manufacturing documentation and reporting
• Project costing and progress monitoring
• Multi-user access with role-based permissions
The platform is designed to reduce administrative workload, improve production visibility, minimise material waste and provide greater control over manufacturing operations.
Unlike generic business management systems, the software has been developed specifically around the practical requirements of workshop-based manufacturing businesses, with a strong focus on joinery, bespoke manufacturing and project-driven production environments.
The solution is delivered as a cloud-based subscription service, enabling businesses to access real-time operational information and manage projects efficiently across office, workshop and site teams.

DataPX1
The AI Adoption in Manufacturing is not moving at the required Pace.
Here's the Fix.
Awareness is high. Investment is growing. Yet practical AI deployment in manufacturing globally remains painfully slow. We have a proven methodology through our platform DataPX1 to design, implement and deploy AI for real. We can run a day workshop where:
✓ We help you discover the key challenges slowing AI adoption in your manufacturing enterprise, including poor data readiness, legacy infrastructure and fragmented operations.
✓ We give you Hands On leverage to learning why Digital Twins, connected assets and AI Agents often struggle to scale, and what manufacturers could do differently.
✓ Implementing the SPEED™ Framework, a proven five-step methodology for accelerating AI adoption, proving ROI and scaling with confidence we can set up an Autonomous Setup of our DataPX1 platform that can help connect to assets quickly, derive meaning from it, recommend and also act, using an autonomous agentic workflow framework
