Our offering

After many years of research and development we are now offering our Glideworks Factory software for factories to use.
The Glideworks Factory software provides a simple and cost-effective solution that streamlines factory processes, minimises errors and boosts productivity.
It's a web application that you can access at your factory, but also from anywhere around the world should you wish with it's mobile friendly interface.

Ordering

  • Glideworks Factory takes care of taking orders from your business customers and producing production schedules on-demand.
  • It automatically filters products for each customer, so they can only order what you have agreed with them and at the price you have set.
  • Glideworks Factory allows tailored pricing for each customer which you have complete control over.
  • Its simple, yet powerful, search allows you to quickly find the right products.
  • It has support to group products together as sets, with separate pricing.
  • And it can keep track of products that are combined from multiple parts.
  • Bulk update prices across your products across all your customers, and easily assign products to customers.

Production

  • Create provisional and final production schedules for your orders, and split them by categories so every department gets the information they require.
  • Create unique, barcoded labels for every product you make, showing where to store it in the factory.
  • View the full history - when it was produced, when it was delivered, which order it was assigned to, even the vehicle used for delivery.
  • Glideworks Factory will tell you the quantity of each product you've produced, the quantity loaded, the quantity on hand and the quantity required for all orders that have come in.
  • It will tell you how many products you need to make to fulfill your orders automatically. Simplified inventory management. All in real-time.

Logistics

  • Set up a fleet of vehicles, with loading capacity and weight limits.
  • Create a route and add the orders to the vehicle, sorting by drop order. This information will be used later for loading the vehicle.

Loading

  • Save time and mistakes at the crucial loading stage. Glideworks Factory will ensure you load the right products on the right vehicle at the right time, in the right order!
  • Your pickers will follow the automatically generated picking list and the short numbering system for each product minimises mistakes.
  • Every item will be scanned onto the vehicle and a straight forward traffic light system used to make sure the right product is loaded.
  • The system is flexible so it can handle any last minute hiccups - letting you choose if you want to deliver a partial order or reschedule for another day.
  • Glideworks Factory will keep track of every delivery in each order in case of partial orders.

Delivery

  • Glideworks Factory produces delivery labels to aid the driver when unloading the vehicle.
  • These labels also have the end customer details on them, which saves time for your customers which we're sure they'll appreciate.
  • The system can produce both expected and actual delivery notes, along with the expected invoice so there are no surprises for your customer later on.
  • Glideworks Factory supports the export of data, ready to import into your accounting software.

Role based access control

  • We have a number of roles which you can assign to your users - from sales, to production, pricing, logistics and loading.
  • Glideworks Factory dynamically shows only the screens and data required for that role to help keep your employees focused on the task in hand and secures your data for only the eyes that need it.
  • The management role allows you to create, modify and remove users and permissions from within the system.

Direct customer orders

  • In our latest update, customers can now place orders directly into Glideworks Factory! No need for your sales staff to take calls or re-key information from emails.
  • Customers can view their order history, keep track of the status of their order or be notified by text or email.
