Manufacturing ERP Software for Global Factories Odoo, ERPNext & SAP
One ERP. Every Factory Operation Connected.
Disconnected spreadsheets. Stock counted by hand. Sales quoting lead times production cannot honour. Finance closing the month a week late. Most factories are not held back by their machines they are held back by the systems running around them.
At TCB Infotech, we connect production, inventory, quality, and finance into one manufacturing ERP system. We implement Odoo, ERPNext, and SAP HANA choosing the platform that fits your scale, geography, and budget, not the one that is easiest for us to sell. 50+ implementations across 12+ countries. Zero failed projects since 2021.
What a Manufacturing ERP Actually Changes in Your Factory
No jargon. Here is exactly what changes on your shop floor and in your back office after a proper manufacturing ERP setup.
Production, sales and finance stop working in silos
❌ Sales, production, stores and accounts on different systems
All departments share one connected system. When sales confirms an order, work orders are released, raw material is reserved, and accounts is notified automatically. No manual handover. No miscommunication between the shop floor, stores and back office.
You always know your production numbers
❌ Waiting until month-end to see how production, cash and orders are tracking
Live dashboards show production output, on-time delivery, stock levels, sales, expenses and cash flow updated as things happen not at month-end when it is too late to act.
Raw material and inventory shortages become rare
❌ Running out of raw material mid-run or overstocking parts you do not need
MRP-driven alerts the moment stock or work-in-progress drops below your reorder point. Purchase orders raised before you run out. Real-time stock counts across every warehouse, godown and shop-floor bin.
Invoicing, tax filing and payments get faster
❌ Invoices delayed, payments missed, tax filing a headache
Invoices generated automatically from sales and dispatch. Payment reminders go out on time. VAT, GST, sales tax and e-invoicing reports ready in one click no manual calculations.
You stop entering the same data twice
❌ The same order, BOM or item code typed into three different spreadsheets
Enter data once and it flows everywhere. A quotation becomes a sales order. The sales order becomes a work order on the shop floor. The work order becomes an invoice. Accounts updates automatically zero retyping.
Decisions are based on real production data
❌ Guessing on capacity, costing and customer profitability
Production output, profit per SKU, scrap and rework cost, vendor comparison, customer profitability every report is accurate, current and ready whenever you need it. Make decisions with confidence.
What a Manufacturing ERP is NOT
Set the right expectations before you start. Your manufacturing ERP implementation will thank you for it.
It will not fix a broken process by itself.
If your shop-floor handoffs, BOM accuracy, or quality checkpoints are messy, ERP will just make the mess run faster. We fix the process first then build the system around it.
It is not something you go live on in a week.
A proper manufacturing ERP implementation takes 2 to 6 months for an SME and up to 18 months for a multi-plant enterprise. Anyone promising go-live in a few days is cutting corners on data migration, BOM cleanup or shop-floor training and that always backfires later.
It is not the same system for every factory.
A discrete manufacturer, a process plant and a job shop all need very different configurations of the same ERP. We do not use one template for everyone. We start by mapping how your factory actually runs then configure the system around it.
It will not run itself after go-live.
ERP needs people to use it correctly. We train your whole team production supervisors, store keepers, QA inspectors, accounts, sales role by role, until everyone is comfortable on the live system with their own data. Not a one-hour demo and goodbye.
Manufacturing Problems We Solve Every Day
These are the exact problems manufacturers bring to us across discrete, process and job-shop operations. If any of them sound familiar, we can help.
Manufacturing Industries We Specialise In
From discrete and process plants to foundries, textile mills and food processors — every manufacturing model needs a different ERP fit. Here is what we bring to each.
Automotive parts, engineering, machinery, sheet-metal and electronics manufacturers. Multi-level BOMs, work-order scheduling, shop-floor control, quality inspection, machine maintenance, job costing — all connected on one system.
Chemicals, paints, coatings and lubricants. Recipe-driven production, batch traceability, by-product and co-product handling, hazardous material compliance, and regional regulatory reporting.
Spinning, weaving, dyeing and garment manufacturers. Yarn-to-fabric BOMs, multi-stage production, dye-lot tracking, multi-warehouse stock, vendor scorecards, and quality inspection at every stage.
Batch and expiry tracking, regulatory licence records, GMP-compliant workflows, controlled document management, deviation handling with CAPA, and full FDA, MHRA, CDSCO and FSSAI reporting.
Pig iron and alloy planning, heat-batch traceability, mould and pattern inventory, furnace scheduling, scrap recovery tracking, and full quality dossier per heat — engineered for foundry workflows.
Injection moulding, extrusion and blow-moulding manufacturers. Shot-count-based mould maintenance, machine-linked work orders, OEE tracking, scrap recovery, and material-batch costing per production run.

How We Implement Your Manufacturing ERP System
A six-step manufacturing ERP implementation process we follow for every project so you always know what is happening on the shop floor, in IT, and on the timeline.
We Map How Your Factory Actually Runs
We do not start with a demo. We start by listening. We spend time with your plant manager, production supervisors, stores team, QA, sales and accounts and document exactly how an order travels from quote to dispatch. We note the manual workarounds, the spreadsheets in use, and the handoffs where data goes stale.
We Recommend the Right Platform Odoo, ERPNext or SAP
Based on your factory size, budget, geography and growth plan, we recommend Odoo, ERPNext or SAP HANA with honest reasons. We tell you which modules you need at go-live and which can wait. You get a clear written proposal with full scope, timeline and cost before anything starts.
We Build and Configure Your Manufacturing ERP
We configure the system around your factory your BOMs, routings, work-order workflows, MRP rules, quality checkpoints, multi-warehouse setup, costing method, approval steps, reports, and your local tax and e-invoicing compliance. This is not a standard installation. Every screen and report is set up to match how your team actually works.
We Migrate Your Data Customers, Vendors, BOMs and Stock
We migrate every record you need customers, vendors, item master, BOMs, opening stock, work-in-progress, account balances, supplier scorecards and transaction history from QuickBooks, Tally, Sage, SAP Business One, Microsoft Dynamics, NetSuite, Excel or any other system you are running today. Every record is cleaned, verified and signed off before go-live.
We Train Every Role Shop Floor to Boardroom
We train each role separately production supervisors, machine operators, store keepers, QA inspectors, dispatch, sales, accounts, HR and management. Role-specific training means nobody sits through a generic walkthrough. Everyone learns only what they need to do their job on the live system, with real data.
Phased Go-Live and Ongoing Support
We go live in phases so nothing falls apart on day one. The old and new systems run in parallel for a short period to verify every transaction. 30 to 60 days of free hyper-care support are included after go-live. After that, our AMC packages cover bug fixes, user support, version upgrades and new module rollouts.
AI Features That Save Your Factory Real Time
On top of standard manufacturing ERP, we add AI-powered features that cut manual work on the shop floor and in the back office and help you make faster, better decisions with live data.
🤖
Smart Demand & Production Forecasting
AI looks at your sales history, seasonality and order pipeline to predict what you will sell next month or next quarter. Plan production runs, raw material purchases and shop-floor staffing before demand hits not after.
📄
Automatic Document & Invoice Reading (OCR)
Upload a supplier invoice, purchase bill, packing list or quality certificate and the system reads it and fills in every field for you. Works with PDFs and scanned documents. No manual typing saves your stores and accounts team hours every week.
💬
Search Your ERP in Plain Language
Type what you want to find in plain English "all unpaid invoices from last month," "top 10 customers by revenue," "work orders running behind schedule" or "stock below reorder point" and get the answer instantly. No filter building, no SQL, no waiting on the IT team.
🔔
Smart Alerts Before Problems Hit the Floor
The system watches for what needs your attention raw material running low, work orders falling behind, machine maintenance overdue, late payments, budget overruns and notifies the right person before any of it turns into a production stoppage.
🌐
Multilingual Chatbot for the Shop Floor
Operators and supervisors can ask the system simple questions in their preferred language stock levels, work-order status, payment due dates, machine schedules without opening a report or calling anyone. Built for multi-country teams and multi-language factories.
