Common problems

What we hear, and how Thoshika helps

Planning lives in a spreadsheet

Material requirements are worked out by hand, so shortages show up on the shop floor.

  • MRP with lead times, safety stock and lot sizing, pegged to the orders it covers
  • A 12-week master schedule and finite capacity per work centre
  • Suggestions turned into manufacturing orders or purchase requisitions in one step

Job work challans are hard to track

Material sent to job workers must come back within the time limits, and ITC-04 has to be filed.

  • Job work out and in with Rule 45 and Rule 55 challans
  • Return limits tracked, with reminders before material becomes a deemed supply
  • ITC-04 tables exported for the GST offline tool

Breakdowns stop the line

Preventive maintenance is missed and nobody knows which spares are in stock.

  • PM plans by time, meter or condition, with checklists and work permits
  • Anyone can report a problem by scanning the machine’s QR code
  • Spares per machine with automatic requisitions; downtime feeds OEE

Quality records are on paper

Inspection results, non-conformances and corrective actions are hard to find when a customer asks.

  • Incoming, in-process and final inspections opened automatically from receipts and operations
  • SPC charts, gauge calibration, NCRs and CAPA with 8D reports
  • Lot genealogy from supplier bill to customer invoice

Product costs are a guess

The cost of an order is known only after month-end, if at all.

  • Standard or actual costing with material, labour, machine and overhead
  • Issues, labour and receipts posted to WIP and inventory in Books
  • Variances on close of each manufacturing order

Factory payroll is complex

Shifts, overtime, contract workers, PF, ESI and state rules make every payroll run a project.

  • Shifts, rosters, overtime and biometric attendance
  • PF, ESI, professional tax and LWF by state, with ECR and ESIC files
  • Labour time on shop-floor operations costed from People
