Dense BOMs, serialised units, and test-and-calibrate steps, managed as projects inside one NetSuite system.
Electronics and instrumentation builds carry hundreds of components per unit, revisions that change mid-run, and test, calibration, and certification steps that take as long as assembly. Every unit is serialised, and a customer or regulator can ask exactly which components and which test results went into it. NetSuite gives electronics manufacturers one system for procurement, production, quality, and financials, and Consule Solutions implements it so the engineering plan and the shop floor share one record of what was built and how.
NetSuite manages bills of materials, work orders, lot and serial inventory, procurement, and financials in one system, which is the foundation electronics manufacturing needs. What instrumentation builds add is the project layer: an order that spans assembly, test, calibration, and documentation as distinct stages, each with its own labour and equipment time, each contributing to a cost the customer will eventually be invoiced against, and each needing to line up with a revision of the design. Keeping those stages linked to one project, with actual hours and actual cost flowing in as they happen, is what keeps a complex build on budget.
That’s what Project2Prod adds, natively inside NetSuite: project tasks generated from work orders with full hierarchy, so assembly, test, and calibration each become tracked stages; project segmentation across sales orders, purchase orders, and work orders so long-lead components roll up to the unit they were bought for; Gantt scheduling with capacity and dependency tracking across test benches and assembly cells; planned-versus-actual costing by labour, machine, and overhead; time entries created automatically from shop-floor completions; and integrity checks that keep the project, work order, and task chain consistent through revisions. Same NetSuite, same login, no integration to maintain.
Bench time, technician hours, and rework tracked as project tasks, not lost in a single assembly work order.
Long-lead parts purchased against the project roll up to the serialised unit they were bought for.
Integrity checks keep project, work order, and task consistent when the design changes mid-build.
Planned versus actual by labour, machine, and overhead on every build, visible before the invoice goes out.
Built for Electronics and Instrumentation
Project2Prod was built for electronics and instrumentation, capital equipment, industrial machinery, and other high-complexity project-driven manufacturers, by a NetSuite Alliance Partner and Spotlight Award winner. See what Project2Prod adds to NetSuite →
