Power Quoting, Power Invoicing, Power Reporting, Power Orders, Power Documents. If you’ve been on a demo of Steelhead’s job shop software, you’ve heard all about the opportunity to perform manual quoting and invoicing or to toggle on power mode to automate customized quotes, invoices, and much more. With such extreme customization, how does the team at Steelhead roll out the technology in a matter of weeks?
Using the latest available technologies, Steelhead’s manufacturing resource planning and execution system is purpose-built on first principles to specifically address the Job Shop manufacture. The results can be transformational to your business.
So what is the secret sauce behind powder mode? Low code.
Before thinking you get lost in this description, let’s outline what low code is and why it genuinely allows Steelhead’s job shop software to define a league of its own in manufacturing software.
What is Low Code?
Low code is revolutionizing the technology industry by offering customized solutions that are easy to use and incredibly efficient. Gone are the days of spending countless hours writing code and dealing with the complexities of software development. With low code, new-age tech companies and savvy developers can design customized solutions without the need for extensive programming knowledge.
Like a magic wand for software developers, low code is a software development approach that allows developers and deployment engineers to create fully custom automation scripts in just a few hours, delivering custom software value at off-the-shelf cost. This approach empowers businesses with tailor-made software, without workarounds or compromises.
The benefits of low code are numerous. For starters, low code development saves time and resources. Rather than having to write code from scratch, developers can use pre-built components and templates to create applications in a fraction of the time. This means businesses can get their solutions up and running faster than ever before while maintaining real-time integration into the core platform on which they run their business.
Low code also makes it easy for businesses to customize their job shop applications to meet their specific needs. For job shops, this customization is not all about saving a few hours a day (although that is nice). Custom automation allows Job Shops to say “YES!” to their customer's requests, without driving extra work. Power tools also allow for tailor-made automation of your shop, eliminating spreadsheets and other manual processes
A few examples:
- Automated, fully custom estimation
- Customer-specific documents and reports
- Automated, rules-based capacity planning and scheduling data
- Customer’s requesting surcharges to be calculated or invoiced in various manners
Low code is the future of enterprise software, and any solution of the past is poised to suffer, devouring costly time and resources to fix or improve outdated technology.
