The business problem
A sheet-metal fabricator where jobs get lost between quoting, cutting and dispatch.
The office quotes the work, the laser team cuts it and the welders finish it — but each team keeps its own list. When a customer asks for an update, nobody has one reliable picture of where the job has reached.
Why it matters. People interrupt the shop floor to chase progress. Priorities are easy to miss, and finished work can wait for dispatch because the office has not been told it is ready.
A better starting point. A shared production board gives every job a visible stage. The team can spot work waiting between departments and hand it over without another email chain.
The starter prompt
Example-picker brief used to shape this hand-built showcase.
“We're a manufacturing business of 11–50 people, doing sheet-metal fabrication. Our biggest headache is tracking jobs through the workshop. At the moment it's handled with spreadsheets, emails and memory, so things get missed and time is wasted. We'd like a simple way to see what needs attention and keep everyone on the same page.”
This is a fixed sample, not a record of a live AI generation.
Behind the concept
A simpler way to work.
Proven software
Stages, due dates and alerts are fixed rules — no AI needed to run them.
Where AI earns its place
AI could read an unusual drawing or customer email and suggest the job details for a person to confirm.
Proposed capability
- Job board by stage
- Due-date warnings
- Dispatch checklist
