Big Beam Development & Technology

ERP for steel and metal fabrication companies

Fabricators live on materials: what was bought, what was cut, what was wasted, and what was delivered. The Company Management System records each step so the numbers add up.

What fabricators get

Products described properly

A parent-to-sub SKU catalogue carries size, material, pressure rating, length and unit of measure, with codes generated automatically.

A bill of materials you can trust

Each product maps to its raw materials through a versioned bill of materials, to four decimal places, so a change in design does not rewrite history.

Production per machine and shift

Record quantity produced, waste and the reason for rejection, plus downtime minutes with their cause, then lock the shift.

Raw material, bought vs used

A standing report compares raw material purchased with raw material consumed in production, daily, weekly, monthly or yearly.

Stock that moves on receipt

Stock changes when goods are received, produced or sold, never when a purchase order is merely raised. Reorder levels flag low stock.

Quote, deliver, invoice

Quotations with customer PO references convert to sales orders; delivery notes carry a QR code and trip cost; invoices follow in ZATCA format.

What it does not do

The system is not CAD, nesting or weight take-off software. It records and controls what happens around the drawings — buying, production, stock, delivery, people and money — and fits beside the engineering tools you already use.

Questions from fabricators

Can I track scrap and rejected pieces?

Yes. Each production line records quantity produced, waste quantity and a rejection reason.

Can one machine run several products?

Yes. A machine register records which products each machine can run and its status.
