With over 4,300 installations worldwide, JobBOSS is the established leader in shop management for custom machine builders. We've developed powerful capabilities these manufacturers rely on to improve their profitability including:

• An unlimited number of levels in the Bill of Material to support the large number of components and sub-components typical of custom machine building.
• Powerful cost analysis tools to give you accurate information (either detailed or in summary) for both completed jobs and jobs that are still in the shop.
• Realtime access to information on the status of assembly jobs including actual versus estimated hours for each component.
• Links between workstations, materials and outside processes for simplifying complex scheduling requirements.
• Flexible purchasing which allows buying material direct to the job vs. to inventory and the ability to add material "on-the-fly" and cost it to the job.

"JobBOSS gives us the real time data and financial indicators we need to run our business more profitably - we receive immediate information on job status, what shipments are due, billing, and more."

Todd Gallagher, General Manager, Apex Design Technology, Anaheim, CA
