Important extensions for mechanical and plant engineering
Maintain an overview with automatic ordering
To keep track of orders from suppliers, you can order from orders using the automatic ordering system. As a result, items that are not in stock and are required on an order-related basis can be ordered at the same time.
Bills of materials for calculation
Do your customers want an offer for their individual systems, but they don't want to see all the components of the planned system and especially not the purchase prices and surcharges? This is exactly what can be displayed via bills of materials, you see the components and can count on them, not your customers.
Production orders for manufacturing
Specifically, this means in work4all: Production orders are used to produce bills of materials and provide a quick overview of the stocks of the required components and make warehouse bookings easier. Clear lists help to control production.
Transparent inventory movements
Delivery notes and incoming delivery notes always form the basis for stock entries and withdrawals. This makes it easy to track which items were shipped to which customers. Delivery notes can also be converted into packing lists, allowing warehouse staff to process orders quickly. Of course, delivery notes in work4all can also be converted into invoices.
Commercial overview of multiple projects
The multi-project analysis in work4all clearly displays all projects with internal services, external services, revenues, and contribution margins. All information appears automatically: revenues from outgoing invoices, external services from incoming invoices, and internal services from recorded project hours. This way, you always have a live overview of the profitability of your projects.
Frequently asked questions about using work4all in plant and mechanical engineering
An integrated CRM, ERP, and project management system—also known as all-in-one software—helps plant and mechanical engineering companies manage customers, projects, materials, personnel, and finances. With work4all, you can control all key business processes in one central solution—from initial inquiry and project execution to final billing.
With work4all, you can plan projects centrally, coordinate tasks, resources, and documents, and keep an eye on the current project status at all times. In work4all, customer files and project files integrate seamlessly, ensuring that you and your project managers always have all the information you need at your fingertips.
With work4all's integrated resource planning, you can see at a glance which employees or machines are scheduled for which projects. This helps you avoid bottlenecks, double bookings, and scheduling delays.
This is easily done using the integrated document management system. You can drag and drop technical drawings, parts lists, inspection reports, emails, and photos into the corresponding customer or project file, keeping all relevant documents centrally available.
Employees can track their working hours on the go via the app or directly at their workstation. Hours are automatically assigned to the respective projects and are available for analysis and post-calculation.
With work4all, you can create quotes and cost estimates based on material, labor, and external costs. Once a project is complete, you can compare the actual costs against your initial plan to analyze profitability.
ERP software connects commercial documents (calculations, quotes, orders, invoices, and procurement) with inventory management processes (packing lists, rental equipment scheduling, and stock movements). When customer communication (CRM) and all project information are also available in the same system, you have everything in one place. This streamlines workflows, reduces errors, and enables data-driven decision-making.
Digital post-calculation allows you to compare planned versus actual costs to determine your contribution margin. With work4all, costs (time, materials, external services) and revenue are automatically assigned to projects. This helps you quickly identify potential for optimization and increase the profitability of your projects.
