Estimation and quotations
Model the costing logic your team uses today: quantities, material rates, labour assumptions and margin. Check the calculations against your existing workbook before putting the module into daily use.
Manufacturing / Fabrication / Factory operations
Manufacturing ERP, built around your factory.
Connect estimates, material costs, inventory and purchasing with custom software shaped around the way your team works.
For manufacturers, fabricators and factories in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the wider Middle East and India.
Keep the job connected, from quotation to cost review
When estimates, stock records and purchases live in separate spreadsheets, the team has to reconcile the same job repeatedly. A custom ERP gives those records a shared structure. The modules and integrations are agreed around your operation.
Inventory and material costs
Bring material records, stock movements and valuation into a consistent process. Define units, item codes and job references so purchasing and finance can follow where materials are used.
Purchasing and suppliers
Connect requests, supplier quotations, purchase orders and payment records. Start with ProcureTrack for purchasing or scope an integrated ERP module.
Job and project costing
Compare estimated and actual costs while a job is running. Agree which material, labour and expense records feed the result and how changes in scope are recorded.
Payroll and documents
Reduce repeated entry between attendance, payroll calculations and payslips. Define the required approval steps and document formats as part of your custom software scope.
Reporting across entities
Bring agreed operational measures into shared reports. Define company access, currencies and reporting rules with the people responsible for the figures.
A delivered ERP for steel fabrication
The Triocon case study describes a custom system used by a steel-fabrication group across two countries. Its connected modules include estimation, project costing, payroll, inventory, purchasing and branded documents.
Built from the operation
The estimation module was checked against the existing costing workbook. The case study explains how those calculations became a workflow for preparing and tracking quotations.
Specialist tools where needed
Triocon includes fabrication-specific tools such as a pipe-cutting optimiser and material take-off calculator. Your own specialist requirements would be scoped separately.

Start with one process your team knows well
Bring an example estimate, stock sheet or purchasing workflow. We map the inputs, calculations, handoffs and reports with your team, then agree a first module and delivery scope.
Map the workflow
Identify where the same data is entered again, where approvals wait and which numbers the team needs to trust.
Check a prototype
Review a working example against real scenarios before expanding the scope. Explore the 72-hour prototype offer.
Build and connect

Questions about custom manufacturing software
Can we start with one module?
Yes. Discovery can focus on one process, such as estimating, stock tracking or purchasing. The first module, its connections and any later phases are agreed in the project scope.
Can you work with our existing spreadsheets or accounting system?
We review the files, data quality and available integration options during discovery. Migration and connections depend on your current systems and are agreed before implementation.
Is this an off-the-shelf production planning or MRP package?
This page describes custom ERP development. Production planning, bills of materials, MRP, machine connections or specialist quality workflows need to be assessed and scoped for your factory.
Which markets is this service focused on?
Forvex focuses on manufacturers, factories and contractors in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the wider Middle East and India. Language, currency, document and integration requirements are reviewed for each project.
