ERP for Capital Goods & Heavy Assembly

Multi-level BOMs, shortage-driven planning and serial traceability to the field — FOS keeps large assemblies moving without surprises.

Configured for Capital Goods · Structured go-live

Multi-level BOMs too deep for a spreadsheet.

One missing sub-part cascades into weeks of delay.

Serial history lost once equipment ships to site.

Service teams blind to what was actually built.

Thousands of parts per machine — and one is always missing.

How FOS runs your process

The workflows built for how you actually manufacture.

01 Planning

See shortages before they cascade.

Multi-level BOMs, planned to the leaf.

FOS explodes deep BOMs, nets against stock and open orders, and surfaces the exact shortage that would stall the top-level assembly.

02 Traceability

Every serial, for its whole life.

From build to the field.

Each unit carries its serial, its as-built BOM and its test records — so service knows exactly what shipped and what to support.

What you get

Built for Capital Goods

The capabilities that matter most for your line of work.

Multi-level BOM

Deep BOMs planned and netted to the last leaf.

Shortage-driven MRP

Surface the one part that would stall the assembly.

Serial traceability

As-built BOM and test records per unit.

Field & service handoff

Service teams see exactly what was built and shipped.

Capital goods workflow in FOS ERP

Heavy equipment and capital goods builds depend on design release, deep multi-level BOMs, and long-lead purchases before sub-assemblies converge into final assembly and factory acceptance.

  1. Enquiry
  2. Design Release
  3. Multi-level BOM
  4. Long-lead Purchase
  5. Sub-assembly
  6. Final Assembly
  7. FAT
  8. Dispatch

Unlike high-mix machine tools focused on one SPM project BOM, capital goods programmes net deep trees and serialised as-built records. FOS surfaces the shortage that would stall final assembly early, then carries test and FAT evidence into dispatch and field handoff.

Frequently asked questions.

Top questions about ERP for engineering companies — answered for manufacturers in India.

Why is FOS used in capital goods manufacturing?

Capital goods involve long cycles, project milestones, heavy BOMs, and site installation. FOS connects engineering, fabrication, assembly, dispatch, and milestone billing for plant equipment makers.

Can FOS manage project milestones and billing?

Milestone definitions on orders trigger partial billing and revenue recognition rules. Finance and project managers share percent-complete based on dispatch and installation status.

How does FOS plan fabricated structures and bought-out packages?

MRP coordinates fabricated skids, piping, and electrical packages with long-lead pumps, motors, and instruments. Material readiness dashboards show critical path items.

Does FOS support site erection and commissioning?

Service or project tasks can track site activities, spare issues, and commissioning checklists after factory dispatch. Serial history follows the asset to customer site.

How are engineering changes controlled on large BOMs?

ECN workflows update multi-level BOMs with effectivity per project. Open work orders highlight impact before shop proceeds on obsolete revisions.

Can we track costs by project or machine line?

Project costing accumulates material, labour, subcontract, and overhead per order. Management compares estimate at quote to actual for margin learning.

What subcontract is typical in capital goods?

Heavy machining, rubber lining, electrical panel build, and specialised coating often go job-work. FOS challan flows keep parent project WIP accurate.

How does quality work for pressure equipment and skids?

Hold points for hydro test, NDT, and documentation packages block dispatch until complete. Certificates attach to order records for customer FAT and statutory needs.

Can multi-plant groups build different sections of one project?

Inter-plant transfers and consolidated project views let fabrication and assembly sites collaborate on one customer contract with group visibility.

How long does capital goods implementation take on FOS?

Complex BOMs may extend discovery, but a staged methodology still applies for phased go-live — often starting with planning, stores, and fabrication WIP.
