A modern ERP, written for the shop floor — by the shop floor.
Quoting, scheduling, inspection, finance, supplier portals, the operator iPad. One platform, owned end-to-end. Built by K+G for K+G — and now powering every shop in the network.
Every shop has these problems. Most just live with them.
We didn't. We built software that eliminates them — then validated it against real production, real machinists, and real customer deadlines. Every day.
Your quotes take 4.6 days. Your customer gave the job to the shop that responded in 4 hours. Your estimator's knowledge lives in his head — and he's 58.
Drag a print in. AI extracts features, tolerances, material — generates a full routing with cost per op. Learns from every completed job. Works from 2D PDFs, not just 3D models.
Quotes in <24h · Accuracy improves every jobYour schedule is a whiteboard. 68% of shops slip at least 1 week per quarter. When a customer calls, someone walks the floor to find answers.
Dual-mode auto-scheduler with historical calibration. Predictive risk engine tells you a job WILL be late in 3 days — and gives you options to prevent it. No competitor has this.
Schedule in 4 min, not 4 hours26% of machinists are 55+. When they retire, decades of setup tricks, feed rates, and fixture knowledge walk out the door. New hires take 6–18 months to ramp.
Every part accumulates a permanent knowledge file — setup photos, operator notes, tool life data, inspection callouts. Captured passively as a byproduct of production. Run 4 is dramatically better than Run 1.
New hire ramp-up cut 50%You find out a job lost money weeks after it ships. By then, the loss is baked in. 40% of shops don't have accurate per-job cost data at all.
Freight, Labor, Overhead, Outside, Material, Other — every cost posts to GL in real time. See live margin while chips are flying. Catch losses in-flight, not in the post-mortem.
Margin surprises eliminatedQC is paperwork in a binder. Certs arrive after the part ships. 11 hours per shipment on AS9100/ISO compliance paperwork.
AI reads the drawing, generates balloon inspection plans, routes to the right CMM cell. CoC and ISIR auto-generated from measurement data. Every shipment, every time.
11 hrs → 14 min per shipmentTooling eats 3–5% of revenue with zero visibility. Machinists hoard cutters. Setup delays from missing tools are a top 3 productivity killer.
The system reads the schedule + routing + tool inventory + consumption history → pre-stages tool kits before the job hits the machine. Conflict detection catches shortages before they cause delays.
Setup delays from tools → eliminatedThe features that make competitors nervous.
Not concepts. Not roadmap items. Deployed, running, validated against real production every day.
Drop a print — PDF or STEP. AI extracts geometry, tolerances, material, and surface finish requirements. Generates a full multi-operation routing with setup/run times and cost per op. Historical calibration means your 500th quote is dramatically more accurate than your 1st.
- Works from 2D PDFs — not just 3D STEP files like competitors require
- 167-entry Material Intelligence Database with live supplier pricing
- Repeat part detection pre-fills from the best historical run
- Estimating rules engine catches no-go jobs before you waste time pricing them
Two scheduling modes: greedy algorithm for speed, Claude AI for optimization with plain-English reasoning. The predictive risk engine tells you what WILL be late — with root cause and mitigation options — before it happens.
- Historical calibration from actual clock data — estimates improve every month
- What-if scenarios: "what happens if the Mazak goes down Thursday?"
- Multi-machine operator tracking — models concurrent assignments
- Capacity histogram with RFQ check: "can I take this job?"
Every part accumulates a permanent record: setup photos, feed/speed notes, tool life data, inspection results, operator tips, and margin history across every run. Machinists capture knowledge as a natural byproduct of production — no extra forms, no overhead.
- "Save to Part" toggle: machinists decide what's permanent knowledge vs. one-off
- AI summary across historical runs surfaces the best approach automatically
- New machinists get the benefit of 20 years of experience on their tablet
- Run 4 of a part is dramatically better than Run 1 — the system never forgets
Every job makes the next one better.
After 100 jobs through this system, the AI pipeline outperforms any competitor's experienced team — because it's calibrated to your shop's actual reality and it never forgets.
Before and after — in numbers that matter.
Not projections. Measured results from shops running the platform today.
Your ERP was designed before the iPhone. Ours was designed for AI.
