Cartonrun

Cartonrun is a packaging plant and corrugated box manufacturing company that needed to digitize and streamline its end-to-end operations.
They were managing complex production flows manually, across departments like inventory, purchase, production, and dispatch. The inefficiencies were adding up in the form of delays, miscommunication, and missed delivery timelines.

Client's Goal / Business Problem

The client had outgrown spreadsheets, physical registers, and disconnected tools. They needed a centralized system to:

  • Track raw material consumption and avoid overstocking or shortages
  • Generate and manage purchase and work orders
  • Plan and schedule production batches across machines
  • Monitor inspection, QC, and approval workflows
  • Track dispatches, packaging, and delivery status
  • Get reports for costing, delay analysis, and vendor performance

Above all, they wanted a system that was tailor-built for their real-world operations, not a generic ERP.

Our Solution

We built a modular, scalable Manufacturing Management System tailored to the client’s exact processes and terminology.

Key Modules Delivered:

  1. Raw Material Inventory Management
    • Real-time stock updates and alerts
    • Material inward and consumption logs
  2. Purchase Order Management
    • Vendor-wise PO generation, approvals, and GRN tracking
  3. Work Order Creation & Scheduling
    • Batch-wise work orders with machine allocation

  4. Production Monitoring
    • Live job status updates by floor teams
    • Downtime tracking, rejects logging, and rework notes
  5. Quality Control & Inspection

  6. Dispatch & Delivery Management

The platform was fully web-based, optimized for both desktop and tablet use in the factory setting.
