Customer, job type — kitchen, wardrobe, vanity, commercial fitout — style, site address and target date. Drawings and references attached to the job.
FactoryMate is the job and production layer for cabinet makers. It tracks every job across the office, the bench and the install — and works alongside the design and cut-list tools you already use. Start this week, no ERP project.
Quotes in one inbox, the cut list on a whiteboard, the install in a group chat. A job stalls because the bench didn’t know the deposit landed, or the installer turns up without the hardware. FactoryMate puts the whole job — office, bench and install — in one place, with a record of every step.
How it works
From the quote to the customer’s signature on site. Office, bench and installer each see exactly the work that belongs to them.
Customer, job type — kitchen, wardrobe, vanity, commercial fitout — style, site address and target date. Drawings and references attached to the job.
Design signed off, deposit in, sheet stock and hardware ordered. The job can’t hit the bench until the checks are ticked — no half-ready jobs jamming the saw.
The maker picks it up on a wall tablet. Status moves through Cut → Edge → Assemble → Spray → QA — every stage logged, so the office sees progress without walking out.
The maker signs off finished units into one audited record. The job locks and hands to the office — any change needs an unlock, and every request is recorded.
The office plans the install run and assigns the crew. The job flips to scheduled and the installer gets the stop in planned order.
On site the installer captures photos, a customer signature and any defects. The job closes with the evidence attached. Done.
Built for the whole shop
The office never sees the bench’s mess. The bench never carries the office’s spreadsheets. The installer gets a phone, a list and a signature.
Filter by stage, customer or target date. See deposits, plan the install run, approve bench unlock requests — the whole shop at a glance.
The maker signs in with a PIN tied to the shop tablet — no shared passwords. Tick off Cut, Edge, Assemble, Spray and QA, mark up shop drawings, sign off the day’s work in seconds.
Today’s installs in planned order. Tap a job, open maps, drive. On site: photos, a customer signature, a defect list — all attached to the job, even with no signal.
Why cabinet makers
Keep your design, cut-list and CNC software. FactoryMate runs the jobs around them — it doesn’t replace the bit you already rely on.
The big manufacturing systems take months and cost a fortune to roll out. FactoryMate gives a small shop the job and production tracking without the project.
Who moved a job, when, on which device — recorded. When a customer queries a finish or a date, you have the answer.
Made for AU shops, run and supported from Australia. When you talk to FactoryMate, you talk to the people who build it.
Where it fits
Most software a cabinet shop touches does one of three things. FactoryMate is the missing middle — the layer that keeps the actual job moving.
Design & CNC tools
Draw it, cut it, machine it
Design software and cut-list / CNC tools handle the cabinets themselves. FactoryMate sits alongside them — it doesn’t replace them.
Full manufacturing ERPs
Powerful, heavy, pricey
Enterprise ERPs can run a whole factory — but they’re a long rollout and a big spend. Overkill for a small shop that just needs the job tracked.
