01: Workflow

From raw material to ready to ship.

Nodal simplifies data input at every stage of the production process, equipping decision-makers with real-time data. Know where the bottlenecks are, where inventory is getting lost, and why scrap rates are creeping up, without burdening the team on the floor.

01

Badge in

Scan badge at the tablet. No passwords. Logged in with role-based permissions.

02

Pick a work order

See assigned jobs. Tap to open. Routing and BOM are right there.

03

Clock into operation

One tap to start. Labor time captured automatically against the work order.

04

Scan materials

Scan as you consume. Real-time inventory deduction. Full lot traceability.

05

Report & complete

Log quality, scrap, or completion. Next operation gets the handoff automatically.

02: Built for the Floor

Designed by people who've stood at the station.

Generic business software wasn't built for a noisy, dimly-lit, gloved-hand environment. Every screen on Nodal Shopfloor was built because we've watched the people who'd use it actually use it.

Badge scan login

No passwords to forget or share. Badge scan logs in with role-based permissions and personal time tracking.

Big buttons

Designed for gloved hands and quick taps. No tiny menus, no buried screens, no need to slow down to navigate.

Dark mode

Built for overhead lighting and screen glare. High contrast. Easy on the eyes through a full shift.

Scan-driven everything

Materials, work orders, locations, lots. Barcode scanning drives every workflow: no typing, no lookups, no errors.

10-second scrap logging

Failed quality check? Tap a reason code, enter quantity, done. Scrap captured immediately. Quality trends visible the same minute.

Real-time, everywhere

When an operator completes a step, the work order status updates for everyone. No batch processing. No end-of-shift catch-up.

03: Why It Matters

Accurate data starts where the work happens.

When operators log production at their station, not on a clipboard that gets entered at the end of shift, you get something your current system probably can't deliver: data that's current, accurate, and trustworthy enough to make decisions on.

Operators stay productive

No leaving the station to find a computer. No paperwork piling up to enter later. Less time on overhead, more time on the job.

Leadership sees the truth

Live dashboards reflect what's actually happening on the floor, not a version of reality from yesterday's data entry batch.

Quality issues surface immediately

Scrap and quality fails feed trend reporting in real time. Spot recurring problems in days, not at month-end review.

04: Hardware

Use your hardware. Or use ours.

Nodal Shopfloor runs on your existing iPads, phones, and PCs. If you already have scanning systems, we'll integrate with them. If you want shop-floor-ready hardware shipped and configured, our Floor-Ready Kit includes Chromebooks, scanning guns, and label printers per workstation.

05: Deployment

Go live in days.

For most facilities, Nodal can be turned on and in use in a matter of days. Here's the implementation.

Step 1

Scope a single line. Configure stages, work centers, user roles, and badge scans.

Step 2

Load products, materials, and work orders. Train supervisors and operators.

Step 3

Run the test. Watch where people get stuck. Adjust screens and workflows.

Step 4

Go live. Then add lines, integrations, and modules as the team's ready.

30 minutes. Real workflows. Show us your production process and we'll walk through how operators would use Nodal Shopfloor on the tablet.
