What is happening.
What is changing in manufacturing.
- 01
New requirements for machinery
The Machinery Regulation applies from 20 January 2027. Cybersecurity and recording software changes then become requirements in the technical file.
- 02
Software in your product
From 11 September 2026, you must report vulnerabilities in products with software, in full from December 2027. You need to know what software is in each product.
- 03
Quotes based on experience
A quote on a drawing takes hours from an experienced estimator, while you win only some of them. Only after the order do you know whether the hours were right.
- 04
Every order its own drawing
With one-offs and small batches, every order has its own drawing, revision and file. A standard ERP assumes repetition.
Where it can be better.
Six processes from day-to-day operations in manufacturing.
- How it works now
- The estimator works out material, machine hours and set-up time from a drawing or STEP file.
- What could be better
- Less senior time per quote, since you win only some of them.

All processesThe system proposes. You decide.
The system reads, checks and prepares. A person decides what happens.
| Process | What the system does | Who decides |
|---|---|---|
| Quotes on customer drawings | What the system does: A cost estimate from the drawing or STEP file, at your own rates. And afterwards you see whether it was right. | Who decides: The estimator sets the price. |
| Bill of materials and engineering change | What the system does: From EBOM to MBOM without retyping. For each change, you see which orders, purchasing and stock it affects. | Who decides: The engineer decides how the change is implemented. |
| Work preparation and planning | What the system does: Routing and capacity per machine group in one schedule. You see overruns as they happen, not afterwards. | Who decides: The production planner approves every move. |
| Quality file per delivery | What the system does: Certificates, inspection reports, FAI and welding records per delivery in one file. You see what is missing or wrong before it ships. | Who decides: Quality decides on releasing the delivery. |
| Nonconformities and 8D | What the system does: Every nonconformity with an owner, an 8D and a deadline. And you see when the same fault comes back. | Who decides: The quality manager decides on root cause and corrective action. |
| Technical file and CE | What the system does: Risk assessment, technical file and manual per machine variant, kept up to date. Every software change recorded against the risk it affects. | Who decides: The CE coordinator reassesses the risk. |
Compliance you can prove.

We connect to what is there, or build alongside it where the package is too heavy or too rigid.
Where we are not the right fit
If your production runs in large series on a standard ERP, you need us less. We build for one-offs and small batches made to customer drawings.
Questions.
About costs, time, integrations and ownership.
What does it cost?
Most systems we build cost between €10,000 and €40,000, one-off. Support is about 3 to 5% of that, per month. After the prototype you get a fixed price, before you sign anything.
How long does it take?
We set that after the prototype, per phase. We do not give a timeframe before then.
How much of our time does it take?
One owner who makes the decisions, and a few users who review and test during the build. We agree the exact amount per project.
Does it connect to our ERP and Microsoft?
Yes. Users sign in with their own Microsoft account and MFA. We set out in the proposal which ERP and file integrations are included.
Who owns the software?
You do. The rights transfer per phase, once that phase is paid. No licence.
Where is it hosted?
In the EU, encrypted: EU hosting with ISO 27001-certified partners.
Who maintains it?
We do, under an SLA. Or you do: the documentation is written for that.
People
You talk to the people who build it: Jelle, Mike and Jeroen. No account manager, no middleman.
