Quotes priced by gut feeling
You price from experience and then the job doesn't pay what it should. In WoodPro the quote adds up the real cost of boards, edging, hardware and hours, and shows the margin before you send it.
Never used an ERP? Start here.
Explained in workshop language, with no IT jargon. If you build bespoke furniture, this is for you.
So what is an ERP?
An ERP is simply one single place where all your workshop information lives: customers, quotes, materials, jobs in progress, hours worked, deliveries and payments.
Right now that information is spread across spreadsheets, notebooks, phone messages, email and — mostly — inside two or three people's heads. When it all sits in one place, you stop wasting time searching and stop delivering jobs without knowing whether they made money.
It is not accounting software and it is not a CAD program. It runs the work: from the customer's enquiry to the finished piece installed in their home.
If any of these sound familiar, WoodPro was built for you
This isn't IT. This is the workshop floor.
You don't know what the finished job actually cost
After installation nobody closes the books. Here, materials consumed and hours logged on the shop floor give you the real cost and final margin of every job.
Material runs out mid-job
You find there is no board or hinge left with the job already started. With requisitions tied to the work order and live stock, you know what's missing before you cut.
Dates promised without knowing the workload
You say "next week" and then three urgent jobs land. Planning shows each team's or machine's capacity and what is already committed.
Hours nobody wrote down
Labour is a big share of the cost and is almost never measured. Every operation has start, pause and finish, and the cost flows straight into the job.
Measurements, photos and change requests lost
Changes arrive by phone and by message, and the person cutting doesn't have the latest version. Every document and change stays attached to the job, with history.
How it works day to day
1. The customer asks
Log the contact and the enquiry. Build the quote from your catalog of materials and labour: the system works out cost, margin and final price and sends the proposal.
2. The workshop builds
An approved quote creates the work order with operations, material requisitions and dates. Whoever is at the machine clocks their work in and out.
3. Delivery and books closed
Quality checks, shipping with proof of delivery and, at the end, the real margin of the job and the record of payments received.
