Management Control Module.

Actual costs, quote vs actual, job margins.

jobs

Quoted, committed, incurred.

For every job ITeM compares the value of the revision it comes from with the committed cost (declared hours valued at the cost list, plus purchases ordered) and the incurred cost (hours and purchases received). Jobs that have already exceeded the quote come first. The expected margin uses the quote until it is exceeded, then the real cost.

  • Comparison by cost item: machining, steels, standard parts and components, treatments and coatings
  • Declared labour hours vs revision hours, independent of any price list
  • What the job has taken from the warehouse, already in the figures
  • Expected margin per job

dashboard

Where you're over, at a glance.

The dashboard adds up the overruns on open jobs: machining over the revision hours, purchases over the quote.

actual costs

Hours are declared where the work happens.

On the shop floor each operator declares labour and machine hours per operation. Actual-cost reports compare them with available and planned hours, by work centre and by operator: machine utilisation and shift coverage.

work in progress

Work in progress, at any date.

The cost of jobs not yet shipped or closed at the chosen date: material delivered to the shop floor, hours, external operations returned. Download it to Excel for the year-end close.

features

One module, many features.

Dashboard

Overruns on open jobs added up: hours over the revision, purchases over the quote.

Quote vs actual

For each job, item by item, the revision value next to the real costs.

Committed and incurred

Declared hours and ordered purchases, kept apart from hours and purchases received.

Expected margin

Calculated on the quote until it is exceeded, then on the real cost.

Hours vs revision

Declared labour hours compared with revision hours, without going through a price list.

Actuals by work centre and operator

Hours declared per operation, collected by work centre and by operator.

Utilisation and coverage

Declared hours vs available and planned hours: machine utilisation and shift coverage.

Work in progress

The cost of jobs not shipped or closed at the chosen date.

Excel for the year-end close

Work in progress downloaded to Excel for the year-end close.

Management Control is activated with Planning; with Purchasing it also counts materials and external operations.
