Custom ERP Software Development - Packaging Manufacturer

Challenge  A leading packaging-product manufacturer in the UAE struggled with disjointed systems for sales, production, and shipping. Multiple plants and legacy software led to inventory errors and missed deadlines. The sales orders were re-entered by hand across departments, causing delays and mistakes. Without integrated planning, on-time delivery and visibility were poor. The client needed a custom ERP developed to centralize operations and eliminate manual silos.

Solution Innomation Labs delivered a tailored ERP platform built around the client’s exact workflows. We developed modules for order management, production planning, inventory control, and dispatch, all linked

on one cloud-based system. Warehouse staff use barcode and QR scanners that automatically update stock levels and orders in real time. Mobile-friendly dashboards give managers on-floor visibility 24/7. Every form and workflow was customized so that the ERP “fits like a glove,” ensuring high user adoption and efficiency.

In the custom ERP solution, warehouse operators use forklift-mounted scanners to update inventory and orders instantly. Scanned packages automatically adjust stock levels and trigger production tasks. The system also auto-generates production schedules, finance reports, and delivery documents, replacing dozens of separate spreadsheets. By automating data entry and validation, the ERP eliminated tedious manual steps.

Outcome The custom ERP drove huge productivity and efficiency gains. After implementation, order processing became seamless, and stock counts went digital. In one analogous case, a tailor-made ERP boosted productivity by 50%. Similarly, our client saw throughput roughly double and manual errors drop to almost zero. Inventory accuracy became real-time (no more monthly shutdowns for stock counts).

Key results included:

• Massive productivity gain: Tailored workflows boosted throughput by 5×.

• Error elimination: Automated checks and QR tracking eradicated dispatch mistakes.

• Doubled output: Monthly shipping volume roughly doubled.

• Real-time inventory: Continuous stock tracking via QR codes eliminated the need for monthly physical counts.

  
  

By aligning software to business processes, the custom ERP provided higher efficiency and long-term cost savings than off-the-shelf packages. The packaging manufacturer now operates faster and more accurately, with full traceability from raw materials to shipment.
