The business specializes in sheet metal and structural metal fabrication and offers a comprehensive range of services, from 3D CAD design and drafting to CNC laser cutting, brake press, welding including TIG and MIG, and metal coating services. Started in 2021, at the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the business is a testament to the entrepreneurial determination of the company\u2019s Founder and Director, CJ Prem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prem reflects on his transition from an operations manager role to the uncertain job market during the pandemic. \u201cAs the world shifted, so did my perspective,\u201d he says. \u201cI began to nurture an idea, an entrepreneurial seed\u2014that would eventually grow into something uniquely my own.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prem started working from home, building the business from his daughter\u2019s vacant bedroom, and was lucky to get his initial orders from a college friend who owned a larger manufacturing company. He spent the first three months running between different contractors to fulfill orders while working on the company\u2019s website and marketing to create an online presence. A few months later, this activity started paying dividends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTo this day, Google Search brings in around 80% of my business,\u201d Prem says. \u201cI hardly go canvassing for work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the fourth month of operation, Aston Precision was so busy that they had to settle down in a dedicated facility. Soon, Prem also secured a business loan with a major bank, a rarity in Australia considering how young the company was at that point, to buy a CNC brake press machine. Now, just three years later, Aston Precision is an established partner for the Australian construction and building industry, industrial machinery manufacturers, and architectural firms, and even signed a global procurement contract with retail giant Amazon to supply their fabricated metal products.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"banner-v2\">\n    <p class=\"banner-v2__desc\">Grow your manufacturing operation with MRPeasy<\/p>\n    <a class=\"banner-v2__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/sign-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-ga-event=\"blog_signup_banner_blue\">Try for free<\/a>\n<\/div>\t\t<style>.banner-v2 {\n    float: right;\n    display: flex;\n    flex-direction: column;\n    justify-content: center;\n    align-items: center;\n    padding: 40px 32px;\n    gap: 16px;\n    width: 356px;\n    height: 205px;\n    background: linear-gradient(199.68deg, #6084E5 13.17%, #5FA7DD 82.1%);\n    border-radius: 4px;\n    margin-left: 12px;\n    margin-bottom: 12px;\n    margin-top: 15px;\n}\n\n@media (max-width: 767.98px) {\n    .banner-v2 {\n         width: 100%;\n         height: 173px;\n         margin-bottom: 0;\n         margin-left: 0;\n    }\n}\n\n.single__content p.banner-v2__desc {\n    margin: 0 !important;\n}\n\np.banner-v2__desc {\n    width: 292px;\n    font-style: normal;\n    font-weight: 700;\n    font-size: 22px;\n    line-height: 29px !important;\n    text-align: center;\n    color: #FFFFFF;\n    margin: 0 !important;\n    order: 0 !important;\n}\n\n.single__content a.banner-v2__link {\n    color: #FFFFFF !important;\n}\n\n.single__content a.banner-v2__link:hover {\n    color: #003557 !important;\n}\n\na.banner-v2__link {\n    display: flex;\n    justify-content: center;\n    align-items: center;\n    width: 181px;\n    height: 51px;\n    padding: 18px 0;\n    border-radius: 4px;\n    background: #003557;\n    font-weight: 700;\n    font-size: 16px;\n    color: #FFFFFF !important;\n    text-decoration: none !important;\n    order: 1 !important;\n}\n\n.banner-v2__link:hover {\n    background: white;\n    color: #003557 !important;\n}<\/style>\n\t\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_system_was_set_up_even_before_a_warehouse\"><\/span>A system was set up even before a warehouse<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>From the very beginning, Prem has had an ace up his sleeve \u2013 a functioning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/manufacturing-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">manufacturing management system<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen I started the company, I was adamant that I wanted a system in place,\u201d Prem says. \u201cI\u2019ve had many friends start a business saying that they\u2019ll implement a system \u2018tomorrow,\u2019 but that \u2018tomorrow\u2019 never comes. I got <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MRPeasy<\/a> even before I got my first warehouse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to extensive experience with manufacturing software at his previous jobs, Prem knew exactly what he wanted. Before landing on MRPeasy, he considered several other options, including the ones he had already worked with, but all missed the mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAll the solutions I looked at were good systems, but they were complex and expensive,\u201d Prem remembers. \u201cMost of them asked for an installation fee of up to A$16,000 even if I had implemented the software on my own.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After settling on Xero as his accounting system, Prem took a look at the Xero integrations marketplace. Among the available solutions was MRPeasy, which Prem instantly clicked with. What made the biggest difference compared to similar packages available was that MRPeasy offered quote estimation \u2013 he could add all the parts, processing, and assembly going into the products, get an accurate price estimate for the order, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/production-scheduling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">schedule production<\/a> promptly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI couldn\u2019t get those from any other system I tried,\u201d Prem says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, MRPeasy offered strong inventory and Bill of Materials (BOM) management features as well as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/traceability\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">traceability<\/a> required by a growing number of Aston Precision\u2019s clients. Moreover, Prem wanted the company to get ISO 9001 certified, which entails stringent traceability and document control measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have a client that manufactures food packaging machinery and they have very intricate requirements, including for documentation,\u201d he says. \u201cMRPeasy provides us with this traceability, quality management, and revision control they need.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Setup_took_just_a_couple_of_days\"><\/span>Setup took just a couple of days<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Prem, MRPeasy also stood out from the rest by being \u201cliterally easy.\u201d All of the software user manuals and demo videos are freely available on their website, enabling software seekers to get acquainted with the system without dealing with annoying sales pitches. They also provide potential customers with a free 30-day trial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe system is so simple,\u201d Prem says. \u201cI did the trial and was hooked.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The initial setup of the new software took just a couple of days, owing to Prem\u2019s previous experience with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/manufacturing-erp-systems\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">manufacturing ERP software<\/a> and the user-friendliness of the system. As Prem has hired new staff, the employees have also taken to the software very well. Even Aston Precision\u2019s 19-year-old System Administrator, who was fresh out of high school and had no experience with manufacturing, let alone with manufacturing software, took just a couple of months to learn MRPeasy to a level that she felt comfortable using it independently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMRPeasy is just perfect,\u201d he says. \u201cNow I can\u2019t imagine how we could operate without it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Accurate_cost_estimation_is_the_biggest_benefit\"><\/span>Accurate cost estimation is the biggest benefit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Aston Precision\u2019s entire operation is managed in MRPeasy, from quoting to manufacturing to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/quality-control\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">quality control<\/a> to shipping. Everything is thereby documented within the system, enabling Prem to know exactly what is happening in the company and to generate reports about various business functions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOne of the best things about MRPeasy is how easy reporting is,\u201d he says, \u201cYou can filter out anything you want in any module and get invaluable insights from the data.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Prem cannot pinpoint his favorite MRPeasy feature as he \u201clikes them all,\u201d he knows which areas of the business have benefitted from the system the most. First and foremost is pricing: MRPeasy has taken the guesswork out of estimations and costing, even when dealing with highly intricate products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBeing one of the best custom metal fabrication companies in Melbourne, we build very complicated assemblies with many subparts included in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/bill-of-materials\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bills of materials<\/a>. &#8220;MRPeasy is the best to get accurate pricing for them,\u201d he states. \u201cIt\u2019s highly beneficial to us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"764\" height=\"542\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/quoting-mrpeasy.png\" alt=\"quoting-mrpeasy\" class=\"wp-image-17508\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/quoting-mrpeasy.png 764w, https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/quoting-mrpeasy-300x213.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/quoting-mrpeasy-360x255.png 360w, https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/quoting-mrpeasy-652x462.png 652w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 764px) 100vw, 764px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>MRPeasy makes cost estimating and actual costing a matter of a few clicks.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Achieving_inventory_control_and_visibility_into_performance\"><\/span>Achieving inventory control and visibility into performance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The second most important benefit is the degree of control they now have over their inventory. Whenever Aston Precision receives a new customer order, in just a few clicks they can create a manufacturing order, book the required materials from stock, and generate purchase orders for out-of-stock materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t have to create purchase orders manually,\u201d Prem details. \u201cWhenever inventory levels drop below a certain point, we can generate a pre-filled PO ready to be sent out. That is amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thirdly, the company takes full advantage of the dashboard functionality, which gives them an overview of the company\u2019s vitals such as the cash flow, current sales, work-in-process, late orders, and many more. Each user can customize the dashboard according to which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/manufacturing-performance-indicator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">manufacturing KPIs<\/a> are important to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe dashboard gives us quick visibility into our performance without having to generate separate reports,\u201d Prem says.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"banner-v1\">\n    <div class=\"banner__text\">\n        <div class=\"banner-v1__title\">Your company deserves effective software<\/div>\n        <div class=\"banner-v1__desc\">MRPeasy users report a 54% average improvement in operational efficiency and a 39% increase in on-time deliveries.<\/div>\n        <div><a class=\"banner-v1__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/sign-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-ga-event=\"blog_signup_banner_white\">Try for free<\/a><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"banner__img\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/mrpeasy\/assets\/images\/banner.svg\" alt=\"banner\">\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Better_implement_sooner_than_later\"><\/span>Better implement sooner than later<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To other growing manufacturers that are thinking about implementing MRP software, Prem recommends taking the leap sooner rather than later. In his experience, hiring people into an already established system is much easier than having them adopt it later when they are already used to doing things in a certain way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEven though inevitable, change can mostly be challenging,\u201d Prem says. \u201cI was part of an ERP system implementation at one of my previous jobs. The company was nearly 50 years old when the decision was made to adopt a system and the amount of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/change-management-in-manufacturing\/\">change management<\/a> we had to do was horrific. Postponing the implementation just makes it harder.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prem concludes by saying, \u201cWith a reliable and affordable system in place, now we can focus on growth and innovation without the burden of remembering every detail as the system remembers and prompts every aspect of our operations. Thanks to MRPeasy! It\u2019s every entrepreneur\u2019s dream!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>You may also like: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/success-story-oat-foundry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer
