Traceability that follows every part from raw bar to shipment
When a defence customer asks where a part came from, the answer has to be complete: which heat of material, which operations, which inspections, which serial. Elite Tech builds full genealogy on Zoho plus AWS, linking material certificates, as-built records and every operation to the serial or lot, so a Certificate of Conformance ships with proof, not promises.

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.

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.

Serial and lot traceability, questions answered
It is ERP that records the complete history of every part, linking material certificates, operations, inspections and as-built content to a serial or lot. When anyone asks where a part came from, the full trail is available on demand.
A serial or lot identity is assigned early and carried through every operation and inspection. That identity ties all records together, so the genealogy of each part is continuous rather than reconstructed later.
Yes, mill and heat certificates are captured and linked to the parts produced from that material. If a heat is ever questioned, every part made from it can be found immediately.
Yes, the CoC is produced from the genealogy and inspection records already captured, so every shipment leaves with conformance backed by evidence rather than manual paperwork.
Because the genealogy is searchable both ways, you can trace forward from a suspect heat or lot to every affected part, or backward from a serial to its full history, in one query.
Configuration management defines which revision a part should be. Traceability records what actually happened to each physical part, its material, operations and inspections, giving the evidence trail behind the configuration.
