CaliberERPReal-time, all the time — from operator to executive.
One live truth at every seat — an ERP that runs your whole factory on hardware you own, and can prove every part, every step.
Every screen below is the real product · beta expected September 2026 · waiting list open
The problem
You know this factory.
The order lives in a spreadsheet.
The revision the shop floor is building may or may not be the one sales promised. Nobody is sure. Everybody is careful.
The knowledge lives in Dave.
Which supplier's batch went into which unit? Dave knows. Dave is on holiday. The auditor is not.
The evidence lives nowhere.
When the audit letter arrives, the next two weeks disappear into assembling a story the system should have been writing all along.
The reveal
This is your factory on CaliberERP.
One dashboard, first thing in the morning: on-time rate, first-pass yield, what needs attention and who owns it. Every number clicks through to its answer.
CH 01 · Win
Win the work.
Pipeline to quote to confirmed order — every promise you make starts its paper trail here, in the same system that will build it.
CH 02 · Plan
Promise dates you can keep.
Closed-loop planning reads demand, stock and capacity together: it names the work that needs a decision, answers whether an order can be met and by when, and tells you plainly when the schedule asks for more than the factory has. The date you give a customer becomes a calculation, not a guess.
The planning engine
A plan that tells people what to change.
Closed-loop planning runs underneath the whole system. It reads demand, stock and capacity together, and it does three things a spreadsheet never has: it names the work, it answers the customer, and it tells you when the answer is no.
It tells named people what to change
Action messages are what the plan wants changed — each one owned by a person, deduplicated, and honest about its own volume. You can read your own, everyone's, or the ones nobody could be routed to. Beside them the workbench opens on what needs a decision: demand with no production order behind it, material failing a real commitment, items under their reorder point, orders already past their planned end.
It answers the customer
Ask a sales order whether it can be met and it works the line back through what is required, what is free, what is already promised elsewhere and what is genuinely short — then gives you the earliest realistic delivery date beside the one the customer asked for, and the gap between them.
It says when the answer is no
Capacity comes rough-cut and detailed, and names the binding constraint in words: which work centre, which week, how far over. When the rough-cut and the detail disagree about a cell, it says so instead of picking one. Where a resource profile is missing, its load is marked unknown rather than quietly counted as zero.
And it refuses to bluff
Ask one part what its future looks like and you get everything arriving, everything leaving, and the day it runs out — with how much of what's on the shelf is already spoken for, and by whose order. But where the lead-time chain behind that date has a gap in it, the screen marks the date as not provable and names the missing link, instead of handing you a number that would look exactly as confident as a true one.
No sign-up — the demo opens read-only, with the planner, capacity and a real order book already in it. Which rung brings which planning is set out on the growth ladder.
CH 03 · Buy
Buy with your eyes open.
Requisitions carry their own intelligence: value in play, overdue lines, need-by pressure — summarised above the table, before you scroll a single row. And when the work goes outside, it stays on your books: material issued to a subcontractor is tracked at their address, batch by batch, until it comes back with its yield and its scrap recorded against the order that sent it.
CH 04 · Make
Run the floor in real time.
OEE gauges, a live health cockpit and a kanban the shop floor actually drags — production stops being a rumour and becomes a screen. And a build starts with the right tool in hand: the system checks the tools each step needs before work begins, names the one that is missing or out of calibration, and sends an override to a supervisor rather than waving it through.
The andon moment
When the line stops, the right people know in seconds.
A problem at the workstation raises an andon call. It escalates until someone owns it, the floor screens show it, and the response time goes on the record — no walking to the office, no problem that quietly waits until Monday.
CH 05 · Assure
Quality that proves itself.
Non-conformances with turnaround analytics, first-article inspections with ballooned characteristics, SPC charts — evidence generated as a by-product of working.
CH 06 · Trace — the crown jewel
Scan a serial.
Know its whole life.
Every unit carries a passport: every component, batch, supplier lot and subcontracted operation behind it — and the tools it was built with, down to which serialised unit was picked up at the bench and whether its calibration was in date at that moment. And when the auditor asks, you print the complete Build History File — one PDF, one click.
The Build History File walkthrough — serial to genealogy to printed file, recorded in the product.
CH 07 · Store & Ship
Nothing lost. Nothing late.
Stock with value, status and expiry pressure summarised above every table; inbound deliveries ranked by lateness; outbound tracked to the carrier.
CH 08 · Govern
Audit-ready is the resting state.
An ISO 9001 document register, compliance evidence packages, safety-critical flags — the paperwork an auditor wants, maintained by the system while you work. Every part carries the export-control regime that governs it and the code that regime issues; where nobody has assessed one yet, the register says exactly that rather than letting silence read as cleared. And your controls report whether they are genuinely armed — a control can be switched on and still have nothing consulting it, so the system tells you which it is, or says it cannot tell.
Runs on your server, or cloud — the choice is yours. Either way, you own the platform.
On your own hardware, your data lives in your building, under your backups and your rules — which is where CaliberERP started and still runs by default. On scaled cloud infrastructure it is the same product, and the instance is still yours. Either way, a guided installation has you running in an afternoon, not a quarter.

CH 09 · See
Every number clicks through to its answer.
Dashboards for operations, quality, inventory and spend — and none of them is a dead end. Late deliveries at 4%? Click it: these orders, these suppliers, these dates.
And when the question is yours rather than ours, you build the report yourself. Pick what it's about, click the columns that subject genuinely has, and write the conditions as sentences — “where status is one of released, confirmed” — by choosing, not by typing. Group it, total it, save it. Editing a saved report makes a new version instead of overwriting the old one, because last month's figures were produced by last month's report.
A tour through the dashboards — recorded in the product, plays while you watch.
CH 10 · Personalize
Make it yours.
Six themes — dark or light, each in three colour schemes. Tables with columns you choose, a sidebar that folds away, display preferences that persist per user. And configuration lives in one organized settings hub with a guided getting-started checklist — not a consultant engagement.
Some of that configuration has teeth. Cost centres carry their own budget, period and owner, so procurement and production spend has somewhere to land. And the organisation chart is not decoration: it records who reports to whom, and it is honest about the gaps — it will tell you how many people have nobody above them and whose line upward stops before the top, which is exactly what decides whether an escalation reaches anyone at all.
Your paperwork, too. The document designer draws the page to scale and lets you drag your logo, your supplier block and your own wording into place — measured in millimetres, so what you arrange is what prints. Bands do the thinking about page breaks. You preview against a real order rather than a sample, and it tells you which order it drew. Publish, and every document issued afterwards wears it — while anything you already sent still reprints exactly as it was sent.
You're never lost
A Help Centre that knows your job.
Built-in, step-by-step guides for every module — each one labelled by role, so operators, supervisors and buyers see exactly their part. Every guide says where it fits in the flow, how to do it, and answers the questions that come with it.
One system. Ninety-six screens deep.
Quotes, purchasing, receiving, inspection, subcontracting, assets, warranty, complaints — the grid below cycles through every screen in the library:
The grid cycles through the full library — all 96 screens. Click any tile to expand it.
A note on these, because you'll notice it: the screens above were captured from the product in July. The demo's sample factory has been rebuilt from scratch since — a different manufacturer, with two years of its own trading in it — so the same screens are holding different numbers today. The product is what these images are evidence of; for the figures, the live demo is always the honest one.
The growth ladder
The ERP that grows as you do.
Most manufacturing software asks you to pick a size and live with it. This one asks where you are today, and then gets out of the way while you get bigger.
Start where it hurts
Five people and a spreadsheet problem — purchase orders that finally live somewhere real.
Grow into the factory
The floor arrives, and production stops being a rumour told at the morning meeting.
Run the enterprise
More sites, more scrutiny, more people who need to sign things — same system.
Extend without replatforming
Capability you add later arrives as a licence operation, not a project.
Deploy your way
One system, on your workshop server or on scaled cloud infrastructure.
And the system itself grows
What you see today is CaliberERP at its youngest — the queue is published.
Start with what you need today — when you're ready for more, it's already there.
Growing is a licence change, not a migration project.
Upcoming builds
What you see today is CaliberERP at its youngest — the roadmap shows where it's going.
Sourcing decisions with teeth. The interface in more languages. Two things — because the queue is short by design: entries leave it when they ship, and last month's list has largely done exactly that.
See what's coming →The factory in the demo
It has real problems.
That's the best thing about it.
The demo isn't a showroom where everything is green. It holds a working manufacturer — two years of trading, ten models, bills of material five levels deep — and that factory is behind on some things. What's worth your attention is how the system talks about it.
It grades itself, out loud
The first screen opens with one verdict out of a hundred and names the weakest limb behind it. Then it walks the whole chain — demand, planning, purchasing, receiving, inventory, production, quality, dispatch, cost — and marks exactly one link as the constraint the rest of the chain is waiting on, with the share of the loss it carries. Every figure sits beside the target it is being measured against.
It points at one thing, not everything
In this factory, quality and purchasing come out clean — first-pass yield at target, orders confirmed well inside the chase window, both marked plainly as not the constraint. Receiving is quick and the stock records are trustworthy. Planning is what is holding the place back, and the system says so, rather than shading the whole board amber and leaving you to guess.
Where it is short, it says short
Schedule adherence and on-time delivery both sit a long way under their targets, printed next to the numbers they are supposed to be. A dashboard that only ever reports good news is one you would stop reading by Thursday — and it would have nothing to tell you on the morning you actually needed it.
When we last walked it, on 21 August 2026, it was scoring itself 39 out of 100 and naming planning as the reason — with stock record accuracy at 99.1% against a target of 98. It keeps trading, so those move. Open it and see what it says this morning.
The live demo
Don't take the screens' word for it.
The demo is the real product, live and read-only — the same system beta testers deploy, holding a seeded factory with two years of trading behind it. No signup: one tap and you're inside with full Enterprise-tier read visibility. Try to change something and it refuses, politely, and points you at the beta.
