Client Story

One of our clients from Australia in the Tech Startup Industry wanted to create SaaS MVP for the Manufacturing industry in the medical domain as they identified a huge opportunity in small to medium scale industry missing an affordable manufacturing execution system. They wanted to focus on the use case for one of their clients and at the same time make it reusable and should be easy to customize and on-board additional clients as the business grows.

Business Case

Small and mid-size companies in the medical manufacturing industry were seeking an affordable manufacturing execution system due to the government's compulsion of tracking and auditing the process of manufacturing for each material or equipment that is built by the companies in that domain in Australia.
