How Planfix Keeps Work Under Control — Plastics & Composites Manufacturing - Orders, Quality & Claims

How Planfix Keeps Work Under Control

Planfix turns orders, quality events, and complaints into connected task flows. Rules route new work, Planner shows priorities, and data tags capture costs. Whiteboard supports structured investigations, while Client dashboards share live status with customers and managers without manual updates.

Order Intake and Changes

Consolidate every order and revision with drawings, agreements, and conversations so production always sees the latest truth.

In-process Quality

Log deviations, holds, and rework as tasks linked to lots, tools, and materials for full traceability.

Complaints and Claims

Guide every complaint from intake to root cause, corrective action, and closure with one structured path.

Management and Audits

See trends in defects, claim volumes, and cost impact without rebuilding spreadsheets before every management review.

Side Spreadsheets Everywhere

ERP, EDI, email, and chats all feed orders, and someone still keeps a private spreadsheet to feel safe.

Friday-night Scramble

A late customer claim on Friday triggers frantic chats, calls, and files scattered across drives and inboxes.

Fear of One Missed Detail

You live with the feeling that one missing lot number or attachment could cost you an entire program.

Blame on Tools, Not Process

Production and quality teams argue about data and systems instead of seeing one shared process and source of truth.

Audit Anxiety

You walk into customer or certification audits worried that you cannot show a clean trail from complaint to action.
