Forgings & castings ERP for heat-traceable aerospace parts
A forge shop or investment foundry is judged on heat-number traceability, mill certs, NDT clearance and honest yield. Elite Tech's forgings and castings ERP ties every part to its pour or forging batch and heat number, carries the MTC through to dispatch, drives special processes and NDT, and turns rejections into yield analytics you can actually act on.

Zoho ERP vs traditional ERP for aerospace & defence manufacturers
A side-by-side look at how a Zoho ERP delivered by Elite Tech compares with legacy and generic ERP software for a Bangalore aerospace & defence manufacturer.

|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | Low, subscription (OPEX), no heavy hardware | High, big licence + servers (CAPEX) |
| Go-live time | 15-60 days, phased rollout | 6-18 months |
| Aerospace & defence fit | Pre-built AS9100 workflows, BOM, routing & serial traceability | Generic, heavy customisation to fit |
| First-article & quality gates | ✓ Native FAI, NCR/CAPA & lot/serial capture | ✕ Custom development required |
| GST e-invoice & e-way bill | ✓ Built-in, India-native | ✕ Add-on / third-party bolt-on |
| Custom apps | Zoho Creator + custom AWS, you own the code | Costly change requests, vendor-controlled |
| Cloud & mobile | Cloud-native, mobile-first | Often on-premise, desktop-bound |
| Export & compliance docs | ✓ Included | ✕ Rarely available |
| Local support | Team serving Bangalore, in your language | Remote / partner-dependent |
| Scale as you grow | Add users & modules à la carte | Expensive tier jumps |
| Data & lock-in | ✓ Own your data & code | ✕ Proprietary, hard to exit |
Forgings & castings ERP, questions answered
Raw stock is received against its heat or melt number, and every forging batch or pour lot inherits it down to the finished serial. At any point you can trace a part back to its heat and forward to the customer it shipped to.
Yes. Chemistry and mechanical MTCs are captured against the heat and carried through to the dispatch documentation, so the certificate that leaves with the part always matches the material actually used.
They run as controlled outsourced job-work with NADCAP-qualified suppliers, job-work challans, GST rules and ITC-04 tracking, so material at a sub-contractor is never lost or mixed between batches.
Yes. Reject codes, foundry yield and forge scrap are analysed by heat, die or pattern and defect type, so you can see which tool or process is costing you and act on it.
Yes. Proof-machining and finishing operations are routed with cycle-time and CMM capture, so the same platform runs the part from melt through machined, inspected and dispatched.
The core heat-to-dispatch traceability flow usually goes live in 20 to 45 days, with NDT, special processes and yield analytics phased in once the base data is clean.
Trace every heat, improve every yield
Bring one part number and its heat and NDT flow. We'll map batch traceability, MTC and special processes to your plant and send a fixed-scope plan.
