Electrical component manufacturing companies that are into transmission Line Hardware, Transformers and conductors face several critical challenges from Procurement to Timely deliveries for client specific requirements.
Lighthouse ERP for Transmission Line Hardware is designed to handle complete needs in the most effective & accurate way. Lighthouse ERP has evolved since 1987 and is constantly upgraded according to the market needs. Lighthouse is committed to provide an industry- specific, comprehensive and robust ERP solution for Transmission Industry.
Lighthouse ERP also caters specifically to the Transmission Line Tower industry, which demands precision in project planning, material management, fabrication tracking, and dispatch coordination. The system is designed to manage complex project BOMs, monitor subcontractor performance, and ensure quality compliance at every stage. With 38 years of domain experience, Lighthouse ERP brings deep industry insight and proven capabilities to support end-to-end operations of Transmission Line Tower manufacturers.
Each client demands different specs: surface finish, torque, galvanization, or assembly making spreadsheet-based tracking prone to errors, miscommunication, and costly reworks adopting ERP software simplifies it.
Mid-cycle drawing updates from design teams often miss procurement or production, leading to manufacturing based on outdated specs.
Transmission projects and tenders create demand spikes, causing long lulls followed by sudden, urgent orders making resource planning reactive and chaotic so demand forecasting becomes important.
Key operations like galvanizing, CNC machining, or load testing are often outsourced. Tracking their status manually leads to delays, lost materials, and billing mismatches.
Transmission hardware must meet IEC, ASTM, or IS standards, with strict test documentation, raw material traceability, and third party-auditable quality certifications.
Deliveries must match the exact site-specific BOQs. One missing clamp or mislabeled kit can halt a project and trigger penalties. Manual kitting and dispatch increase error risk.
ERP for Hardware Industry allows users to configure unique orders with specific technical requirements, automatically linking these to production, QC, and dispatch, reducing errors caused by manual handoffs and Excel-based coordination.
Change management workflows in ERP ensure that any design or spec updates are automatically reflected in BOMs, routing, and procurement plans, preventing production with outdated data.
With ERP’s demand forecasting and work order scheduling, companies can scale production up or down based on tender pipeline insights and inventory positions reducing idle resources or missed deadlines.
ERP for hardware manufacturing industry tracks external job status, gate entries, quality feedback, and timelines, offering better visibility into outsourced processing minimizing miscommunication and enhancing accountability.
From raw material heat numbers to galvanization thickness, Hardware ERP maintains a digital trail with inspection records, certificates, and compliance logs simplifying audits and third-party inspections.
ERP handles BOQ-to-kitting mapping with auto-validation of kit contents, labeling, and documentation making site dispatch faster, accurate, and ready for client approvals.
Plan similar products or raw material groups in a single work order to reduce setup time and improve efficiency. Includes process-wise and work center planning.
Supports unlimited, multi-level, process-specific BOMs with routing for accurate scheduling and interdependency mapping.
Define cost by process, machine, and hourly production capacity for accurate job costing.
A feature for demand forecasting based on tender pipelines isn't explicitly listed.
Club down-the-line processes for similar job cards to streamline execution.
Workflow-based revision control for design/drawing changes could be called out directly.
MIS for load balancing, machine efficiency, tool life, and downtime (e.g., setup time, breakdowns, power outages).
Log accepted, rectified, and rejected quantities at each process stage.
