Production management

Plan fabrication capacity and track work orders through the workshop.

FabQT combines production planning with detailed work orders so fabrication teams can see what is scheduled, what is assigned out, what has been completed and which QA stages still need attention.

Built for practical steel fabrication workflows.

Keep the information your team needs connected throughout the project rather than spread across separate systems.

Plan weekly capacity

Set available weekly hours, allocate expected work-order hours and see where planned workload is approaching or exceeding available workshop capacity.

Track work-order progress

Follow fabrication, checking, welding, inspection, painting and final inspection stages at item level and use final inspection progress to provide a clear completion view.

Include subcontracted work

Assign work orders to connected subcontractors while retaining visibility of assigned work and the project records surrounding it.
