A request like this, handled like this.

The requests that arrive at Manufacturing and distribution every day, kept on one screen along with what to confirm and what to improve next.

The order a person kept by hand, moved over as it was.

  1. Extract the details Extract item, spec, quantity, preferred lead time, and billing details from the email or message, and pinpoint only what's missing (drawing, billing account) to re-request.
  2. Draft the quote Look up past unit prices, stock, and lead time to draft a quote with unit price, total, and expected lead time.
  3. Order and track For confirmed orders, draft a purchase order and a delivery statement and set a dispatch and lead-time tracking reminder.
  4. Approve Confirming unit price, discount, and lead time, new contract terms, the invoice, and any change to payment terms go out after a person confirms.

What you can see

The original messages, files, staff edits, and approval-hold reasons from phone, email, your messaging channel, supplier purchase orders, and price sheets all stay on record, and we use them as the basis for next week's improvements.

What stops

Confirming unit prices and quotes, committing to delivery dates, contracts, supplier claims, and bulk sends don't go out until you approve them.

The channels stay. Only the work a person confirms is separated out.

What a person confirms runs on a single thread.

Rather than adding another screen, we sort the work arriving on the channels you use and separate out only the decisions a person should see.

The same channels

Without adding new tools, we layer Velros AI on top of phone, email, your messaging channel, supplier purchase orders, and price sheets (spreadsheets) that you already use. We build the screens, the approval queue, and the reports you need together, and keep fixing them while it runs.

Someone who knows the industry sets the rules with you.

A Velros operations designer and an industry expert turn your rules for quotes, delivery dates, unit-price approvals, and supplier follow-up into real operating procedures.

In depth

Five phone calls to produce one quote

A day in manufacturing and distribution runs between quotes, order confirmations, delivery notes, invoices and collection. Each step is missing one field, and somebody rings to ask for it. Ask for all of them at the start and the round trips disappear.

From an inquiry to the money arriving

  1. Collect before quoting

    Product, specification, quantity, delivery date, address, invoicing details. A quote cannot exist while one of them is blank.

  2. Ask once for what is missing

    Only the blank fields, all in one message. Five calls become one.

  3. Draft the quote

    Prices are drawn from your own list and the terms of previous trades. The number is drafted, never fixed.

  4. Prepare the delivery note and the invoice

    The date of supply sets which documents are due and when; errors in the billing details are caught before they are filed.

  5. Watch the payment date

    The due date is calculated and announced, and a slipping payment reaches a person before it is late.

What a person confirms

Price and discount
Margin is at stake. The draft stays inside your price list; releasing the number is yours.
Committing to a delivery date
Only somebody who knows the line and the logistics can promise it.
Terms for a new customer
Credit and deposit terms are a judgment about risk.
Issuing or correcting an invoice
Get the amount or the period wrong and a correction follows. A person signs it off.

What differs by market

The duty
Licensing and consumer-protection duties differ by country and often by state. We confirm which ones bind you, and their deadlines, during the operating diagnosis, and they become dated items in the calendar rather than a paragraph on a page.
The deadline
Every obligation gets an owner and an alert counted back from how long the preparation takes, not from the day it is due.
The evidence
What was filed, when, by whom, and against which rule stays in the record, so a change of staff does not restart the knowledge.

What manufacturers ask

Does the AI set the price?
It drafts from your own price list and the terms of past trades. Fixing the number and sending it happens after a person approves.
Will it issue the invoice?
It flags what is due, when, and which billing detail is wrong. A person presses issue. A wrong invoice becomes a correction and a penalty.
What about orders that arrive by fax and email?
They work. Attachments and scanned purchase orders are read and the missing fields are flagged. Nobody asks your customer to adopt a new system.

We'll find what to cut first in Manufacturing and distribution, together.

Where the inquiries land, the order your staff check them in, and the rules a person applies last, laid out as one day of work.
