Sequence the work
Route each product through the steps it actually requires, from cutting and assembly to quality and packing.
MANUFACTURING & WORKFLOWS
Build with control from materials to finished goods.
ORCA connects work orders, bills of materials, production steps, and inventory so your team always knows what to build, what it needs, and what happens next.

PRODUCTION CONTROL
Know what is being built and what is holding it up.
Production should not disappear between a sales order, a spreadsheet, and the warehouse. ORCA keeps demand, materials, labor steps, and finished inventory connected to the same work order.
- 01Plan
Create work from demand, forecasts, or a production schedule.
- 02Allocate
See the components, quantities, shortages, and substitutions behind the build.
- 03Produce
Move work through stations, router steps, approvals, and quality checks.
- 04Complete
Consume materials, receive finished goods, and preserve the production history.
BILLS OF MATERIALS
Build from a material plan you can trust.
Every work order starts with the right components and quantities. ORCA gives purchasing, inventory, and production the same view of what the build requires.
01
Connect demand to the build. Create production requirements from orders, forecasts, kits, assemblies, or custom configurations.
02
See shortages before work starts. Compare required material with inventory already available, committed, or inbound.
03
Keep revision and lot history. Preserve what was planned, what was actually consumed, and what entered finished inventory.
ORCA / BUILD DEFINITIONBill of materials
ROUTING & FLOOR EXECUTION
Give every station a clear queue.
Operators see the work ready for their station. Managers see what is active, waiting, blocked, or complete across the whole route.
Control dependencies
Keep downstream work waiting until the required material, approval, or prior step is complete.
Handle rework visibly
Return failed work to the right step without losing the reason, ownership, or production history.
See capacity and aging
Understand where work is accumulating and which orders need attention before a delay reaches the customer.
ADAPTABLE WORKFLOWS
Your process can be specific without becoming disconnected.
Once the manufacturing foundation is in place, ORCA can adapt the steps that make your operation different while keeping them inside the same queues, records, and inventory controls.
Talk through your production processProduct-specific routes
Different steps, stations, instructions, and lead times by product or revision.
Approvals and quality gates
Artwork approval, first-article inspection, signoff, photos, and required checks.
Configured and custom builds
Translate customer selections into the right SKU, BOM, instructions, and production route.
Machine and system handoffs
Connect production events to inventory, shipping, accounting, partner systems, and equipment.
ONE OPERATIONAL RECORD
Production stays connected to the rest of the business.
The work order is part of the same operation as purchasing, inventory, sales, fulfillment, and reporting.
Purchasing
Buy components against projected production needs and current availability.
Inventory
Allocate, issue, consume, receive, and trace material through the build.
Fulfillment
Release finished goods into the same order and shipping workflows.
Reporting
Connect production status and history to the operational decisions around it.
