Capabilities

What you get with Manufacturing ERP software in Kenya & factory control

Built on the Biashara ERP platform, not a bolt-on integration or spreadsheet bridge.

  • Material requirements planning (MRP) to calculate component shortfalls before launching production runs
02

Production Scheduling & Shop-Floor Job Cards

  • Interactive production orders with start, pause, resume, cancel, and complete lifecycles
  • Workstation routing, allowing you to assign jobs to specific machinery or assembly lines
  • Material transfer workflows to pull raw inputs from stores to the production floor
  • Real-time output logging to track yield versus waste or scrap rates per workstation
03

Multi-Warehouse Stores & Inventory Traceability

  • Batch and serial number tracking for raw inputs and finished products, essential for regulatory compliance

  • Kenyan statutory payroll (PAYE, NSSF, SHA) built-in to calculate manufacturing labor cost automatically
06

AI Copilot & Manufacturing Intelligence

  • AI-powered demand forecasting based on historical sales velocity and regional trends
  • Smart anomaly detection on raw material usage to flag hidden shrinkage or production theft
  • Automatic purchase suggestions generated by AI analysis of supplier lead times and warehouse stock
