Thoughts on software development, best practices, and building products that matter.
NIST measured what fabricators lose to data that has to be typed into one system after another: 1.2% of revenue, every year. For a shop doing $14 million, that is about $167,000. Here is where the leak hides, and how a relational database and a mobile app plug it.
Twenty-seven releases in two weeks turned the Precast Calculator into a full civil submittal engine: enter two elevations and get a solved piece stack, a dimensioned drawing, a spec block an engineer can sign, and hardware inventory that deducts itself at approval.
Twenty-four releases in three weeks: a custom shape editor with blueprint dimensioning, four-view shop drawings, full metric support, the Print Bridge Android app for Zebra label printing, a branded Shop Drawing Package, and add-on inventory with backorder follow-ups.
QC inspection checklists grounded in PCI and NPCA plant practice, erection sequencing that plans the pour schedule backward from the crane date, and a load-out scan that catches the wrong piece before the truck leaves.
RFID sounds impressive, but most small manufacturers don't need it—yet. A plain-language comparison of barcode, QR, and RFID tracking, and how to tell which one earns its keep in your shop.
