Custom Software for Manufacturing – ViviScape

Custom Software for Manufacturing

Your ERP was never built for the way you actually run your floor. ViviScape builds custom software and AI solutions that close the gaps between your shop floor, your office, and your bottom line — designed for Midwest manufacturers who are done with workarounds.

Challenges Holding Manufacturers Back

If your team is printing work orders, re-keying data between systems, or chasing down inventory counts on the floor, you are not alone. These are the six problems we solve most often for manufacturers.

Disconnected Shop Floor Systems

Machines, PLCs, and MES tools that don't talk to your ERP or each other — forcing operators to bridge the gap with clipboards and spreadsheets.

Manual Quality Tracking & Compliance

Paper-based inspection logs, inconsistent documentation, and audit prep that takes days instead of minutes. One missed defect can cost you a customer.

Inventory & Supply Chain Blind Spots

Inaccurate counts, surprise stockouts, and no real-time view of raw materials or WIP. You find out too late that a critical part is short.

Production Scheduling Bottlenecks

Scheduling lives in one person's head or a color-coded spreadsheet. When priorities shift, the whole floor scrambles.

Legacy ERP Limitations

Your ERP handles accounting fine, but it was never designed for shop floor visibility, real-time dashboards, or the custom workflows your operation demands.

Data Silos Across Departments

Engineering, production, quality, and shipping all have their own systems and spreadsheets. Getting a single view of an order is a phone call, not a click.

Manufacturing Software That Works the Way You Do

We don't sell boxed software. Every solution is designed around your specific production environment, equipment, and team — then integrated with the systems you already rely on.

01

Custom ERP Integration

Bridge the gaps in your ERP with custom modules that connect shop floor data, quality records, and production metrics directly into your existing system — no rip-and-replace required.

02

Shop Floor Automation

Digital work orders, operator interfaces, machine data collection, and real-time production tracking that replace paper, whiteboards, and manual data entry across every cell and line.

03

Quality Management Systems

Custom QMS platforms with in-process inspections, SPC charting, non-conformance tracking, CAPA workflows, and audit-ready documentation — built for your specific compliance requirements.

04

Inventory & Supply Chain

Real-time inventory visibility, automated reorder points, supplier performance dashboards, and WIP tracking that ensure you never run short on critical materials again.

05

Production Dashboards

Live OEE, throughput, downtime, and scrap dashboards displayed on the floor and in the front office — giving everyone from operators to executives the same real-time picture.

06

Predictive Maintenance

AI-powered models that analyze machine vibration, temperature, and cycle data to predict failures before they happen — cutting unplanned downtime and extending equipment life.

Manufacturing Software FAQ

Pricing, Timeline & Fit

Manufacturing software projects typically range from $25,000 for a focused shop floor tool or quality tracking module to $200,000+ for a full production management platform with ERP integration. We start every engagement with a discovery phase so you get a transparent, fixed-price proposal before development begins — no open-ended billing.

Yes. We regularly integrate with major ERP platforms including SAP, Oracle, Epicor, Infor, and Microsoft Dynamics, as well as industry-specific systems like JobBOSS, IQMS, and Plex. If your ERP has an API, database access, or file export, we can connect it into a unified workflow — no rip-and-replace required.

Most manufacturing software projects are designed to deliver measurable impact within 90 days. A targeted module like quality tracking or production dashboards may take 6-10 weeks. A comprehensive shop floor management platform with multiple integrations could take 4-6 months. We build in phases so you see value early and often — not just at the end.

Absolutely — mid-size manufacturers are our sweet spot. Companies with 50-500 employees often have the most to gain from custom software because they have outgrown spreadsheets and basic tools but are underserved by enterprise ERP vendors who want six-figure licensing fees. We build right-sized solutions that fit your operations and budget, and we are based right here in Elkhart, Indiana — in the heart of Midwest manufacturing country.
