Built for Hosur’s precision makers
From Bengaluru’s HAL, ISRO, DRDO cluster to Hyderabad, Nashik and Kanpur, Elite Tech configures Zoho for the way Indian A&D manufacturers actually build.
ERP built for Hosur's auto-to-aero precision belt
Hosur has earned its name as the industrial engine on the Tamil Nadu side of the Bengaluru corridor. The SIPCOT Phase I and Phase II estates, along NH44 and the old Hosur Road, pack in precision machining, casting, forging and sheet-metal shops that have supplied TVS, Titan, Ashok Leyland and Caterpillar for decades. Many of those same shops are now qualifying for aerospace and defence work, where a proven CNC and quality base is exactly what primes are looking for.
That shift is real, but the jump from automotive tolerances to AS9100 discipline is not trivial. Aerospace and defence orders demand configuration-controlled BOMs, First Article Inspection, NADCAP special-process records, full material genealogy and Certificates of Conformance, all under a Hosur node of the Tamil Nadu Defence Industrial Corridor. A spreadsheet-and-Tally setup that ran auto batches will not carry that traceability burden.
Elite Tech Corporation is a Bengaluru-based Zoho Advanced Partner sitting less than an hour up the road from your SIPCOT plant. We do not sell a boxed ERP. We implement configured Zoho plus custom apps on AWS so a Hosur precision shop gets aerospace-grade traceability, GST e-invoicing across the Tamil Nadu-Karnataka border, and programme costing, without a seven-figure legacy licence.
What the Hosur aerospace ERP covers
Every module built into one configured Zoho plus custom AWS platform, from RFQ and BOM to inspection, dispatch and MRO.
Configuration-controlled BOM
Multi-level bills of material with revision and effectivity control, so a design change from a Bengaluru prime flows cleanly into your Hosur work orders and no superseded part slips through.
Configuration-controlled BOMAS9100 quality & AS9102 FAI
Quality gates, First Article Inspection reports, non-conformance and CAPA logged against every part number, giving your SIPCOT shop the audit trail primes expect on first qualification.
AS9100 quality &NADCAP special-process control
Track heat treatment, plating, NDT and painting jobs sent to approved processors, with certificates captured back against the serial before the part moves on.
NADCAP special-process controlSerial & lot traceability
Full genealogy from raw bar or billet through machining to finished component, with material certificates linked so any dispatched item can be traced back in minutes.
Serial & lotProgramme & job costing
Run each contract as a project with earned-value and milestone billing, so you see true margin on aero work against your familiar automotive batch pricing.
Programme & jobSubcontract & vendor management
Manage the outside machining, forging and finishing that Hosur shops routinely exchange, with material issued, tracked and reconciled against each subcontract order.
Subcontract & vendorInventory & bonded stores
Segregate customer-supplied material, free-issue stock and finished goods, with reservation against orders so defence consignments stay controlled and countable.
Inventory & bondedGST e-invoice & e-way bill
India-native GST tax invoice, IRN with QR and e-way bill generated in-system, handling frequent cross-border movement between Hosur and Karnataka customers.
GST e-invoice &Hosur Aerospace & Defence ERP, one connected platform
Elite Tech Corporation does not build aircraft. We build the ERP and CRM software that runs aerospace and defence manufacturers, one connected system that carries an RFQ all the way to a certified, dispatched assembly and an MRO order years later.
- Built for A&D makers, airframe, engine, avionics, composites, precision components, ordnance and engineered-to-order.
- Replaces spreadsheets and WhatsApp threads with one login for sales, production, quality and finance.
- Programme mode with EVM, WBS, earned-value and milestone billing beside routine make-to-stock work.
- Configured Zoho where it fits, custom AWS where it doesn’t, you own your code and your data.
- AS9100, First Article Inspection and full serial traceability built into the workflow, not bolted on.
- GST-native and DGAQA / CEMILAC-aware, tuned for Indian aerospace & defence compliance out of the box.
- MRO & Airworthiness Component life-limits, service bulletins, repair & overhaul orders, warranty and AMC contracts in one system.
- GST e-Invoice & e-Way IRN + QR to the IRP and auto-linked e-way bills, India-native compliance with no third-party GSP juggling.
- Export Control & Security Role-based access, controlled-item BOM flags and DGAQA/CEMILAC-aware records for defence programmes.

Your Hosur order, end to end
One connected flow from enquiry to dispatch and aftermarket, every stage captured against the order and the serial.
RFQ & enquiry capture
A prime or Tier-1 floats a drawing package. It lands in CRM with the part, quantity, quality clauses and target rate captured against the customer.
Step 1Estimation & quotation
Cost the job from material, machine time, special processes and subcontract, then issue a controlled quotation that reflects true aerospace overhead, not automotive assumptions.
Step 2Order & contract booking
On award, the purchase order becomes a sales order or programme with delivery schedule, quality flow-down and price locked for audit.
Step 3Engineering BOM & routing
Release the configuration-controlled BOM and machining routing, with revision effectivity so the shop always runs the current standard.
Step 4Procurement & material control
Raise purchase orders for bar, billet or forgings with mill certificates captured on receipt and reserved against the specific job.
Step 5Machining & work orders
Work orders drive the CNC and turning cells on the SIPCOT floor, booking labour, machine hours and stage completion against the serial.
Step 6Special processes & inspection
Route parts to NADCAP heat treatment, plating or NDT, capture certificates, then run First Article and in-process inspection with NCR and CAPA where needed.
Step 7Bonded dispatch & GST
Clear inspected stock from bonded stores, generate the Certificate of Conformance, GST e-invoice and e-way bill, and ship to the prime.
Step 8Aftermarket & repeat orders
Retain full history so repeat schedules, spares and any return or rework link straight back to the original serial and its certificates.

Why Elite Tech Corporation
A complete Zoho and AWS partner that builds the custom apps generic ERPs cannot, purpose fitted to how your team actually sells and builds.
An hour from your SIPCOT floor
We are Bengaluru-based, a short drive up NH44 from Hosur, so implementation, training and support happen with real people who understand your Tamil Nadu operation.
Zoho Advanced Partner & AWS
We hold Advanced Partner status with Zoho and build custom apps on AWS, so you get a configured platform, not a rigid off-the-shelf product.
Aerospace configuration, not generic ERP
We set up AS9100 gates, AS9102 FAI, NADCAP processes and serial genealogy specifically, so your shop is qualification-ready rather than force-fitting an accounting tool.
You own your code and data
The custom apps we build on AWS and the data inside them belong to you, with no lock-in to a proprietary aerospace suite.
GST-native for cross-border work
Because so much Hosur trade crosses into Karnataka, we make sure GST e-invoice and e-way bill flows are correct from day one.
