Manufacturing software development, built around your shifts
Infoloop is a manufacturing software development company. It delivers attendance, order management, inventory and predictive maintenance software for factories and plants. Supervisors see shift attendance, machine status, stock levels and today's dispatch schedule in one place. Scope, budget and timeline are agreed in writing before work starts.
Talk to our teamYou make things. Our software tracks it all: who turned up, what each machine is doing, what is left on the shelf, which order goes out today. Infoloop supports it after release.
Manufacturing data rarely lives in one system
Multiple sites and shifts. Contract labor at the gate. An accounting package, a maintenance log and several spreadsheets that hold the real figures.
Most plants already use several software packages. The difficulty is that none of them agree. Attendance lives on paper or in a spreadsheet only two people understand. Orders, inventory and job cards sit in three separate systems. Every Monday, someone compiles the production report by hand.
Enterprise platform quotes arrive priced for a company ten times your size. Half of the licensed features would never apply to your operation. Or a previous vendor delivered a custom system years ago and moved on. Now every minor change request takes weeks to resolve.
- Attendance data that payroll can verify.
- Orders, inventory and job status in one system.
- Production reports a plant manager can act on.
Infoloop designs custom manufacturing software around your shift patterns and existing supervisor routines. It integrates with the ERP, payroll and maintenance systems already in place. The first plant goes live, then the rollout continues site by site. Infoloop is headquartered in India and has clients in six countries.

Where manufacturing operations lose time
The four issues plant managers raise most often on a first call, and how the software resolves each one.
Attendance still tracked on paper or spreadsheets
Multiple sites, multiple shifts and contract labor make attendance difficult to reconcile. Payroll takes days every month, and the totals are still disputed. Attendance software records every clock-in by shift and site and delivers one verified payroll file.
Orders, inventory and jobs in separate systems
Open orders, inventory levels and work in progress never match. We consolidate them in one system integrated with your accounting package and machine log. Each figure is entered once and updates everywhere.
Unplanned machine downtime
Unexpected equipment failures cost production hours every month. Predictive maintenance software integrated with the ERP flags a likely failure 10 to 14 days in advance. Repairs then happen on your maintenance schedule, not the machine's.
Legacy software without a vendor
A previous developer delivered the system, handed over a folder and left. Every minor change now carries operational risk. We take over the codebase, document how it works and release each change in tested increments.

What a manufacturing engagement includes
For plants that need new software without losing a day of output.
Go-live dates in writing
Planning takes one week. Each plant's go-live date is agreed in writing, and the rollout moves plant by plant.
Billing that fits the work
A fixed price when the scope is clear, hourly when it will change. The rate and an estimate are agreed in writing first.
Shift-level reporting
One dashboard at shift start: output against plan, machines down and staff on site.
Integration with existing systems
Accounting package, machine log and payroll integrations, so every figure is entered only once.
Support after launch
Monitoring, fixes within an agreed service level, security updates and a monthly report.

How to reduce payroll errors from attendance

FAQs
Questions from plant and operations managers
Direct answers. If your question is not listed, raise it on the first call.
What software does a manufacturer need first?
Usually attendance software. Hours are the figure that payroll, supervisors and plant managers dispute most. Time and attendance software for manufacturing went live in three weeks at a three-plant manufacturer. Order management, inventory and job tracking usually follow, then predictive maintenance integrated with the ERP.
What does manufacturing software development cost?
The rate and an estimate are agreed in writing before work starts, based on your sites, employees, shift patterns and existing systems. A new system with a clear scope has a fixed price. Ongoing improvements and support are billed hourly, also called time and materials. Dedicated developers are billed hourly or monthly.
Have you delivered software for manufacturers before?
Yes. Attendance software for a three-plant manufacturer covers shifts, contract labor and the payroll export, with 90% less timesheet administration. It went live in three weeks. Predictive maintenance integrated with a machinery manufacturer's ERP saved $1.2M a year and cut unplanned downtime by 72%. Both case studies are linked on this page.
How do you connect a machine log or maintenance data to our ERP?
Through the ERP's own import tools or API, so each figure is entered once. Most accounting packages, machine logs and spreadsheets support integration. If a system has no practical interface, we say so on the first call. A scheduled import and export then replaces the live connection.
How long until a plant is live?
Most projects go live in 4 to 8 weeks, one plant at a time. Larger systems go live in agreed phases. Attendance software across three plants took three weeks. The first site takes longest, because unexpected shift patterns and exceptions surface there. Delivery dates are agreed in writing before work starts.
Will we have to change how the plant works?
No. Software that conflicts with plant routines gets bypassed within two weeks. The design follows your shift patterns, contractor arrangements and existing supervisor records. Supervisors and operators test each release during development, before the plant goes live.
