Cost and progress should come from the same production file

Production cost and progress reporting track material consumption, labor, station time, completed quantity, waiting jobs and delay reasons from the same production order.

How to Track Production Cost and Progress Reports
1

Production reporting should be more than done or in-progress status.

2

Material consumption, labor and station time strengthen cost visibility.

3

Delbig treats production progress together with sales, inventory and shipment impact.

Cost should be read with actual consumption

Planned BOM cost and actual shop-floor consumption may differ. When reports show that difference, management can evaluate pricing and operational efficiency more accurately.

  • Planned and actual material consumption can be separated.
  • Labor or station time can be included in cost calculation.
  • Waste, revision and rework reasons can be reported.

Progress reporting shows delivery risk

Where production is waiting is not only information for the production manager; sales and shipment teams also need it. Progress visibility reveals risks before delivery promises are made.

  • Completed, waiting and delayed jobs can be separated.
  • Bottleneck stations can be reported.
  • Shipment planning can be updated according to production progress.

Frequently asked questions

Is production cost only material cost?

No. Depending on workflow, labor, station time, waste, revisions and rework can also be evaluated.

Does progress reporting help sales?
