Export control that governs who sees and ships what
When your work touches ITAR or EAR controlled items, compliance is not a checklist, it is who can see the data, which parts are flagged, whether a licence covers the transaction and whether every access is logged. Elite Tech builds an export control module on Zoho plus AWS, enforcing role-based access, controlled-item BOM flags and licence tracking with a full audit trail.
One export-control-ready platform, built on Zoho Advanced Partner + custom AWS development

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

e-Certificate
Digital certificate per serial.
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.

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

Export control module, questions answered
It enforces export compliance inside the ERP through role-based access, controlled-item flags, licence tracking and an audit trail. Rather than relying on memory, the system controls who sees controlled data and whether a transaction is covered by a licence.
Access to controlled drawings and data is granted by role and authorisation. Users who are not cleared for a controlled item simply cannot see it, and the restriction is enforced by the system, not by convention.
Parts and BOM lines are flagged as ITAR or EAR controlled, so the classification travels with the item wherever it appears. Anyone working with the part sees its controlled status.
Yes, licences and their scope are recorded, and controlled transactions are checked against that coverage, so a shipment cannot proceed outside the terms of an applicable licence.
Yes, access, changes and shipments involving controlled items are recorded in an audit trail, giving a complete history for internal review and compliance evidence.
No, it enforces the controls and classifications your compliance team defines and keeps the evidence. Legal determination of licensing and jurisdiction remains with your export compliance function.
