Composites ERP for prepreg and CFRP lay-up
Composite parts live and die on frozen prepreg shelf-life, out-time, cure cycles and defect-free lay-up. Elite Tech's composites ERP tracks every roll from freezer to autoclave, logs out-time and cure records against the recipe, captures NDT results and scrap, and ties each ply to a serial, so airworthy laminates ship with a clean, auditable history.
One platform for aerospace composites, built on Zoho Advanced Partner + custom AWS development
Made for prepreg
and CFRP structures
Skins, spars, ducts and control surfaces, laid up, cured, inspected and traced to a serial and a cure log.

Two workflows, one connected platform
The manufacturing heart and the sales journey, side by side. Click any stage to walk through exactly what happens at that step.
The manufacturing heart
Machining & special processes
Structural fittings, brackets, shafts and engine parts machined on 5-axis against per-part routings, with standard times, first-piece approval and NADCAP special-process control.
Stage 1 of 5Per-part routings
Standard times set for every operation.
First-piece approval
Sign-off before the batch runs.
Special processes
Heat-treat, plating, NDT tracked.
Sub-assembly
Wiring harnesses, avionics modules and composite lay-ups are built and checked before they feed the main integration line.
Stage 2 of 5Harness & composites
Sub-assemblies built to spec.
Pre-join inspection
Checked before joining the line.
Reserved to job
Components allocated to the order.
Integration
Structural mating, systems installation, torque-controlled fastening and fluid fill. The structured serial number is born here.
Stage 3 of 5Mating & fastening
Torque-controlled and logged.
Systems install

Airworthiness sign-off
DGAQA / CEMILAC airworthiness sign-off, or return for rework. On pass, the work order closes with a Certificate of Conformance and the assembly rejoins billing and dispatch.

Rework loop
Back to the right station.
CoC handover
Certificate, then to dispatch.
The RFQ-to-invoice journey
The RFQ lands
An RFQ or tender, for example a machined titanium bracket, qty 200 to drawing rev C, auto-creates a lead with source, part and programme tagged.

Programme routing
Auto-assigned to the right rep.
Duplicate check
One clean, de-duplicated lead.
The rep calls, one click
Click-to-call from the CRM; the call is recorded and the technical requirement captured against the record.
Step 2 of 6Click-to-call
Screen-pop with the record.
Requirement capture
Spec, material, tolerance, standard.
Recording & task
Auto follow-up scheduled.
Qualified & converted
Converted to a customer account and a contract in the Aerospace Sales pipeline; a Blueprint enforces the process.
Step 3 of 6Customer account
Contact and account created.
Price book
Part numbers pulled automatically.
Blueprint
Qualification to Quote.

Composites ERP, questions answered
Every roll carries a freezer expiry and a cumulative out-time clock that ticks whenever material leaves the freezer. The system enforces FIFO issue and blocks expired or over-exposed rolls, so no laminate is built on material that has aged past its limit.
Yes. Each cure recipe defines time, temperature and pressure, and the actual run is logged against it. That gives a defensible cure record per part for AS9100 audits and customer source inspection.
The ply book links every ply, its orientation and its prepreg roll to the part serial. From raw batch to cured laminate you get complete genealogy, which is what primes and DGAQA expect on structural composites.
Yes. Ultrasonic and visual NDT results, defect maps and dispositions are recorded before release, and scrap is coded so first-pass yield and rework trends are visible by part and shift.
Yes. Drawings are ballooned, AS9102 characteristics are accounted for, and a digital FAIR is signed off before the production run is released.
The core freezer-to-cure-to-dispatch flow typically goes live in 20 to 45 days, with NDT, scrap analytics and First Article Inspection phased in after the base is stable.
