The Manufacturing Operating System

Manufacturing ERP Software for Discrete Manufacturers

Connect CRM, sales, MRP, production, purchase, inventory, quality, subcontracting, dispatch and finance on one ERP platform built for Indian manufacturers.

Where operations break down

  • 01
    Disconnected systems

    Spreadsheets and legacy tools that never reconcile across teams.

  • 02
    Stale planning data

    Schedules built on inventory counts that are already outdated.

  • 03
    Late quality signals

    Rejections and NCRs surfaced only when goods reach dispatch.

  • 04
    Slow financial close

    Month-end cycles measured in weeks instead of days.

  • 05
    No executive visibility

    Leadership unable to see plant performance, WIP, and exceptions in real time.

Full lifecycle

One thread from enquiry to payment

Connected workflows on one platform—enquiry, quote, planning, purchase, stores, production, subcontracting, quality, dispatch, and collections across eight modules. Every handoff stays on the same thread.

Frequently asked questions.

Top questions about manufacturing ERP software — answered for manufacturers in India.

What is FOS ERP?

FOS ERP is a manufacturing operating system that unifies CRM, planning, MRP, production, quality, inventory, purchase, subcontracting, and accounts on one platform — from enquiry to dispatch. It replaces disconnected spreadsheets and siloed tools with a single source of truth for discrete manufacturers.

How long does FOS ERP implementation take?

Implementation timelines vary by plant count, module scope, data quality, and team readiness. FOS follows a structured path from discovery through training, UAT, go-live, and support, and shares a scoped plan after reviewing your manufacturing workflows.

Which industries does FOS ERP support?

FOS ERP is built for discrete and machine manufacturing: discrete plants, steel fabrication, auto components, machine tools, sheet metal, and capital goods. Industry templates pre-configure BOMs, quality gates, and workflows common to each sector.

Does FOS ERP replace spreadsheets and WhatsApp on the shop floor?

Yes. FOS connects planning, production tracking, quality checks, and inventory updates in real time so teams stop relying on spreadsheets, paper travellers, and informal messaging. Shop-floor operators use simple screens or tablets; managers see live status from any device.

Is FOS ERP suitable for SMEs and mid-size manufacturers?

FOS is designed for Indian SMEs and mid-market discrete manufacturers running one or more plants. You get enterprise-grade MRP, quality, and finance without the cost or complexity of generic ERP suites built for retail or services.

Can FOS ERP handle multi-plant operations?

Yes. FOS supports multiple plants, warehouses, and companies in one database with consolidated reporting. Each site can run its own production while headquarters tracks orders, inventory, and financials across locations.

What modules are included in FOS ERP?

FOS includes CRM, planning and MRP, production, subcontracting, quality, inventory, purchase, and accounts — all connected on one platform. Data flows automatically from sales enquiry through dispatch and invoicing without re-entry.

Does FOS ERP work on mobile and tablets?

Yes. FOS is browser-based and works on desktops, tablets, and phones. Shop-floor teams can record production, quality, and material movements from the plant floor without installing separate apps.

How does FOS ERP help with on-time delivery?

FOS links sales commitments to MRP, capacity, and shop-floor execution so delays surface early. Production planners see material shortages, subcontract bottlenecks, and quality holds before they affect customer delivery dates.

How do I get started with FOS ERP?

Book a demo through the website or contact the FOS team at hello@foserp.com. The team will walk through your plant, modules, and timeline, then propose an implementation plan tailored to your manufacturing workflows.
