Wrong labels. Skipped steps. Missing documents. Recurring defects. These aren't operator failures — they're system failures. FactoryOps gives every operator a guided, enforced, auditable process on every shift.
Manufacturers lose 5–15% of revenue to quality failures, rework, and compliance incidents every year. The root cause is almost never the people — it's the absence of a system that makes the right process the only option.
Operators rely on memory and habit. One distracted moment and a batch ships with the wrong label — not caught until the customer finds it.
Findings get logged but never driven to closure. The same non-conformance appears in next year's audit. Customers notice before you do.
Work instructions in shared drives with no version control. Operators can't be sure they're following the current process. You can't prove it either.
The 4C containment action becomes the permanent fix. Without a structured 8D process the problem comes back within weeks.
Paper-based counting leads to transcription errors and reconciliation arguments. By the time the spreadsheet is updated, the numbers are already wrong.
Training records in spreadsheets nobody maintains. Operators run machines they're not qualified for. When an auditor asks, the scramble begins.
These problems feed each other. A mislabelled part triggers a concern. The concern needs an 8D. The 8D finds a missing work instruction. The instruction isn't controlled. The stock count is wrong. The operator was never signed off. The cycle repeats.
FactoryOps breaks the cycle — six connected tools that make the right process unavoidable at every step.
See How Each Tool HelpsEach tool is designed specifically for manufacturing — not adapted from generic project management software. Use one or use all six.
Stop labelling errors before they leave the building
Turns paper-based or verbal processes into enforced, step-by-step digital workflows. Every operator is guided through barcode scanning, quality checks, and photo capture — in the right order, every time. Wrong scan? The system stops them. Skipped step? It won't advance.
Turn audit findings into closed actions, not forgotten paperwork
Digitises your entire audit programme — 5S, layered process audits, product audits, system audits, and supplier audits. Build reusable templates, schedule audits in advance, capture findings on a tablet, and drive every corrective action to verified closure.
Every operator, every shift, working from the same current document
A controlled library for all manufacturing documents — work instructions, control plans, PFMEA, SOPs, drawings. Documents are versioned, approved through a review workflow, and published to the shop floor. New revision? Old version is instantly superseded.
From customer complaint to verified root cause in days, not months
Structured problem-solving built around 4C, 8D, A3, and PDCA. The team is guided through containment, root cause analysis, corrective action, and verification. Every step tracked, timed, and evidenced.
Accurate stock counts without clipboards, spreadsheets, or arguments
Operators scan locations and products on any device, the system checks counts against expected quantities, and discrepancies are flagged immediately. Supervisors see real-time progress. The reconciliation report is ready the moment the count finishes.
Make sure every operator knows what they need to know — and prove it
Build, assign, and track operator training across every role and production area. Operators complete training on the shop floor and confirm understanding with an assessment. Managers see at a glance who is qualified, overdue, or has gaps — before it becomes a quality issue.
Every number below came from a live deployment — tracked before and after going live with FactoryOps.
"We went from 3 mislabelling incidents per month to zero in the first week."
A plastic injection moulding company averaging 3 mislabelling incidents per month — each triggering a stop-ship notice at £4,800 — built a 5-step digital workflow in under 2 hours. Wrong scan? System halted. Skipped step? Won't advance.
"We passed our customer audit for the first time in three years."
An electronics assembly business received the same corrective action request two years running. They created three LPA templates, scheduled 12 audits per month, and drove every finding to closure — with photographic evidence. The next auditor asked to see their system and called it the best they'd seen.
"An operator had been following a work instruction two revisions out of date. With Document Hub, that's impossible."
A food packaging manufacturer received a major non-conformance — operators working from superseded instructions. After deploying Document Hub, every operator acknowledged the current version before each shift. The evidence was ready the moment the auditor asked.
"The same defect had been raised four times. After using 8D properly, it hasn't come back in 18 months."
A recurring cosmetic defect — four customer concern notices in 18 months — was finally solved when the team used the guided 8D process for the first time. The root cause was a faulty thermocouple causing ±12°C variation. The fix cost £85. The previous year of rework cost £28,000.
Sometimes the hardest part is knowing which problems to fix first. Our specialists visit your shop floor, map your processes, and design a solution that fits your operation exactly.
We spend time on your shop floor — observing processes, talking to operators, and identifying where errors, delays, and compliance gaps actually happen. No assumptions. No generic playbook.
We document your current-state process flows, pinpoint root causes, and rank problems by cost and risk. You'll receive a written findings report — even if you don't proceed with us.
We propose a solution built around your workflows, roles, and systems — existing FactoryOps tools custom-configured, or a fully bespoke build where off-the-shelf doesn't fit.
We deploy alongside your team — training operators, configuring workflows, and validating against real production. We stay until the system is proven and your team owns it.
Most software asks you to change your process to fit the tool. We start by understanding your process — then we build the tool around it.

Yes — the Professional plan includes a 30-day free trial with no payment details required. You'll have access to all six tools and a dedicated onboarding specialist. For a single-tool evaluation, contact us and we'll arrange a 14-day access period.
Most customers go live with their first tool within 24 hours. The platform runs in any browser — nothing to install. Label Compliance and Audit Manager can typically be configured and deployed in an afternoon. Most sites are fully live within a week.
Yes — Business and Enterprise plans support on-premise deployment on your own servers running MySQL or Microsoft SQL Server. Cloud-hosted (our servers) is available on all plans and is the easiest option for most customers.
FactoryOps supports MySQL 5.7+ and Microsoft SQL Server 2016+. The installer detects your environment and runs the correct schema automatically. Cloud-hosted requires zero database management on your side.
Yes. The operator-facing interface supports English, Polish, German, French, Spanish, Romanian, Czech, and Slovak out of the box. Operators select their language on the device and it's remembered for future sessions.
Yes — Business and Enterprise plans include API integration. Label Compliance can call an external API after a barcode scan to auto-fill workflow fields from your ERP. We also have a push API for sending quality alerts to external systems.
Your data is always yours. On cancellation you have 60 days to export everything in CSV and PDF formats. On on-premise deployment your data stays on your servers regardless. We never delete immediately on cancellation.
Absolutely. The Starter plan was designed for a single site, one tool, up to 10 operators. Many customers started with one tool on one line and expanded. The payback from eliminating even one mislabelling incident typically covers months of subscription cost.
For cloud-hosted: none. It runs in any browser on any device. For on-premise: a server with PHP 7.4+ and MySQL or SQL Server. We provide a guided browser-based installer — most IT teams complete it in under 30 minutes.
We visit your site, observe your processes, and map out where errors and compliance gaps actually occur. You'll receive a written findings report and a proposed solution tailored to your operation. There's no obligation to proceed after the discovery phase.
We'll show you the tools that match your challenges — live, on your device, with your data if you bring it. No slides. No sales pitch. Just the software working.
