For machine, plating, coating & finishing shops

Keep your process. Lose the paperwork.

Print → quote → PO → job → cert → invoice → cash. Every arrow on that line is a person today, retyping a number that already exists somewhere else. In BrixIQ the job is one record, and the record does its own paperwork: it reads the print, prices itself against your rates, matches the PO, pulls the cert, builds the invoice, chases the payment. Your people keep every judgment call: it types, they approve. The result: you quote every RFQ, bill everything you agreed to, and get paid without chasing.

The record fills itself in. Your people sign off.

One record from the print to the deposit.

The problem was never your software. It's the gaps between it.

Print to cash, one system. Keep the ERP you run today: nothing to rip out, nothing to migrate. Don't run one? BrixIQ can be the system of record itself.

What runs on it, from the PO to the deposit

PO

Order entry stops being a re-keying job.

Every revision, duplicate, and rescan of an order gets grouped, the governing revision picked, and only the mismatches land in a human's queue.

Floor

The shop runs on it.

Kiosk at the station, gauges wired in, readings streaming live against the spec. On plating lines, rectifier telemetry: amp hours, thickness, hold stability, anomaly detection.

Quality

The paperwork proves itself.

SPC with Cp/Cpk, coupon test certificates, document control with approvals and revisions. That's what gets you through audits, and what lets you bid the higher-margin work.

Cash

The money arrives without a chase.

Invoices built from actual shipments with every required document attached, automated reminders, ACH autopay, and a customer portal that answers “where's my invoice” for you.

Measured at Anodizers Inc

Same crew. More quotes out, more cash in.

Before and after figures, measured on their own jobs — hours of paperwork turned back into work that pays.

01 / RFQ research and quote creation

Before
2 people, 1 to 2 hours
Now
1 person, under 5 minutes

Fast enough to quote every RFQ instead of only the easy ones. The jobs you used to no-bid are the jobs you now win.

02 / PO tracking and validation

Before
3 people, 1+ hour each
Now
Automatic

Revisions, duplicates, and rescans matched against the quote in the background. Missing charges get caught before the job ships, not after you've quietly made less on it.

03 / Finding a cert

Before
40 minutes
Now
Under a minute

One click. Every record tied to the part, the rev, and the job.

04 / Filling out a FAIR

Before
1 hour
Now
3 minutes

Built from job data that is already in the system, not retyped into a form. That's the paperwork that qualifies you for the higher-margin work.

05 / Drawing and work instruction validation

Before
30 minutes
Now
1 minute

The 30 minute version was error prone, and errors here become scrap and rework you eat. The 1 minute version is solid.

Four jobs nobody was hired to do

Every one of these is a person retyping something that already exists somewhere else.

01 / Quoting
“A print comes in and someone works up the price with a ruler, a calculator, and last year's spreadsheet, and hopes it's the current rev.”

BrixIQ reads the drawing: part number, dimensions, material, surface area, weight, prices it against your rates, and drafts the quote. Your estimator reviews and hits send instead of starting from a blank spreadsheet.

Quote every RFQ. Win more jobs.
02 / Purchase orders
“They sent a revised PO with the expedite charge on it. We billed off the original quote. Nobody caught it. We just quietly made less money on the job.”

BrixIQ reads every PO that comes in (revisions, duplicates, rescans), picks the governing version, and matches it line by line against your quote and your ERP order. Price mismatches, missing charges, and quantity changes land in a queue before you build the job, not after you've shipped it.

Undercharging is silent. Not here.
03 / Quality
“The customer wants a cert. It's in someone's inbox. The audit is Thursday.”

Every quality record (emails, PDFs, spreadsheets, systems) lands in one searchable place, tied to the part and the job.

Pass the audit, keep the customer, bid the higher-margin work.
04 / Cash
“We shipped it three weeks ago and still haven't invoiced it. And the expedite fee the customer agreed to? Accounting never heard about it. Nobody caught it.”

Invoices build themselves from the shipment and the quote (minimums, expedite and lot charges included), so nothing you agreed to bill falls off. Reminders go out on schedule, customers pay online, and vendor bills get read and matched automatically.

From shipment to money in the bank, on autopilot.

One connected system

Everything a job shop runs on

Quoting, production, quality, inventory, invoicing, and everything in between. Run it alongside the ERP you already have, or as the system of record itself.

Winning and planning the work

Quotes and estimating

Read the print, price it against your rates, send the quote.

Sales orders

An accepted quote becomes an order without anyone retyping it.

Scheduling

Capacity, resources, and due dates by work center.

Inventory

Stock, materials, and what is actually available to promise.

Purchasing

Vendor POs out, and the bills that come back matched against them.

BrixIQ

One record from the print to the deposit.

Doing and billing the work

Production

Jobs and operations tracked through the floor as they run.

Quality

Inspect, record, and prove it, tied to the part, the rev, and the job.

Time tracking

Labor and machine time captured where the work happens.

Invoicing

Billed from what actually shipped, with the documents attached.

Accounting

Synced with your books so month end closes on time.

Running across all of it

Customer management

Customers, contacts, and the thread of communication.

Documents

Every job document in one place, searchable.

Reports and dashboards

What the shop actually did, not what you assumed.

Integrations

Connected to the systems and gauges you already run.

Notifications

Alerts on the exceptions, silence on everything else.

One record from the quote to the deposit, so nothing has to be retyped between them.

Have an ERP? It stays the system of record and BrixIQ does the paperwork around it. Don't? BrixIQ can be both.

In their words, not ours

Quality, operations, and the floor, on what changed after BrixIQ went in.

01 / Quality Director
A few months ago, this would've been impossible. The data lived across about 10 Excel files, all in different formats. With BrixIQ, I pulled together thickness data from 2,000+ records in minutes. What used to be painful is now effortless.
Metal Plating Shop
02 / Operations Executive
A production team member needed to understand anodizing cycle times across a series of part numbers. I suggested asking BrixIQ. Within moments, it delivered the answer, eliminating hours of manual digging and guesswork. The team's reaction was simply 'wow, we can't believe this.'
Metal Plating Shop
03 / Quality Team Lead
Six of us used to spend nearly two hours every Monday morning sorting through tasks and incidents. With BrixIQ's automated case management system, that same process now takes just five minutes as a quick team sync. What used to drain time and energy is now effortless.
