A CRM for a furniture workshop that makes made-to-measure sofas. From order and production per workstation to courier, invoice and trade portal — in one system.

WHAT WE BUILT
Every sofa follows the same route through the workshop: building the frame, preparing the upholstery, upholstering and making the cushions at the same time, quality control, packing. Each craftsperson sees only their own work. The courier has a portal of their own, traders order in their own environment, and invoices with reminders go out automatically.
Modules

Orders
Made to measure per sofa: model, fabric, dimensions, delivery. Status always visible.

Production
Work steps per trade — frame, sewing, upholstery — with planning and queues.

Workshop screen
A large screen on the floor: what's now, what's next, what's waiting for inspection.

Quality control
Inspection by the manager before a sofa is packed.

Delivery & courier
A separate portal for the courier: routes, addresses, delivery photos.

Finance
Invoices, bills, expenses and reports. Online payment via payment link.

Trade portal
Business customers order for themselves, with their own catalogue and prices.

Customers
Private customers with a full timeline from order to delivery.
Emails
Formatted in the Haus of Lux house style. In English, because the client is in the UK.
