ERP for OEM & Tier-1 automotive suppliers in Chennai
Tier-1 supply to Hyundai, Renault-Nissan, Daimler or Ashok Leyland lives or dies on the delivery rating. Elite Tech turns raw EDI schedules into sequenced production, JIT/JIS pulls and clean ASN dispatch, so a line-stoppage penalty never starts with your part.

KPI cockpitTier-1 supply, sequenced to the OEM broadcast
A Tier-1 plant is judged on two numbers: PPM and delivery rating. The platform protects both by tying every OEM release to a firm build plan, a sequenced dispatch and an ASN that reconciles automatically.
- EDI releases converted to firm and forecast demand without a spreadsheet in the middle.
- Just-in-sequence dispatch matched to the OEM broadcast, tracked to the label.
- Schedule-driven and order-driven work on the same rails, routed automatically at release.
- Configured Zoho + custom AWS where the line needs it, you own your code and your data.
- OEM EDI & Schedules: 830/862 releases and daily call-offs consumed and turned into firm and forecast demand.
- JIT / JIS Sequencing: Just-in-sequence build and dispatch matched to the OEM broadcast, part by part.
- Delivery Rating Guard: Promised vs actual dispatch tracked so PPM and delivery scores stay green.

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 & Press
Turned and milled parts, stampings, die-castings and forgings run against per-part routings, with standard times, first-piece approval and tool-life tracking.
Stage 1 of 5Per-part routings
Standard times set for every operation.
First-piece approval
Sign-off before the batch runs.
Tool / die life & OEE
Downtime captured live for OEE.
Surface treatment
Heat-treatment, plating, phosphating, e-coating and painting, in-house or job-worked, are tracked and checked before parts feed assembly.
Stage 2 of 5Process parameters
Bath, temp and time to spec.
Job-work challan
ITC-04 tracked for outsourced work.
Coating inspection
Thickness and adhesion checked.
Assembly
Sub-assembly, fastening to torque spec, poka-yoke checks and marking. The part's lot / serial identity is born here.
Stage 3 of 5Torque & poka-yoke
Error-proofed assembly steps.
Part marking
Laser / dot-peen with QR or DMC.
Lot / serial genesis
Traceable identity assigned.
Inspection & SPC
Gauging, functional test and statistical process control per characteristic; out-of-control trends are flagged live from the shop floor.
Stage 4 of 5Control plan
Characteristics checked to plan.
SPC & Cp/Cpk
Capability tracked in real time.
Rejection / rework
PPM logged, 8D triggered.
PPAP sign-off
Quality approves the lot or holds it. On pass, the work order closes and the parts rejoin billing, ASN and dispatch.
Stage 5 of 5PPAP pack
Records captured to the lot.
Rework loop
Back to the right station.
Handover
Released, then to dispatch.
The RFQ-to-ASN journey
The RFQ lands
An OEM or Tier-1 RFQ, for example a machined bracket, EAU 60,000, auto-creates a lead with customer, part and drawing tagged.
Step 1 of 6Omni-channel capture
Portal, EDI, email, IndiaMART.
Account routing
Auto-assigned to the key-account rep.
Duplicate check
One clean, de-duplicated enquiry.

Net weight, scrap, cycle times.
Tooling & overhead
Amortised tool and burden rates.
Margin & approval
Sign-off before it goes out.
Nominated & won

Step 3 of 6Customer account
Contact and account created.
Part & price
Part master and price agreed.
APQP Blueprint
Nomination to SOP gates.
The schedule drives the plant
OEM delivery schedules and EDI releases flow in, become material and production plans, and pull parts just-in-time / just-in-sequence.

What Elite Tech clients have to say
"OEM delivery schedules now flow straight into our build plan, and PPAP packs generate against the part revision. Our delivery rating has stayed green for four straight quarters."
"Every panel is traceable to its coil and heat number, and ASN dispatch reconciles automatically at the gate. Our last IATF 16949 audit was the smoothest we have ever run."
"One platform from RFQ to ASN dispatch to warranty. On-time delivery moved from the mid 80s to the mid 90s within two quarters, and month-end close is days faster."
