Chemical & Bulk Drug Manufacturing ERP
Connect synthesis production, quality control, lot-level inventory, true batch costing, and regulatory compliance into one unified ERP record — eliminating reliance on retrofitted paper BMRs, offline lab spreadsheets, and unmonitored solvent losses.
🎯 Built for the People Running the Chemical Plant
Select your role to inspect specific operational impactA chemical plant is not a generic assembly line. A Plant Director evaluates batch gross margins, while a QC Head guards against contaminated lots. Explore your personalized dashboard:
"Where did this batch lose money, and why is actual yield 84% instead of 91%?"
Gain unmanipulated visibility into true batch yields, solvent loss variances, boiler steam consumption, and reactor downtime across plant blocks. Eliminate blind reliance on verbal supervisor updates.
- • Real-time Gross Yield Tracking: Compare theoretical stoichiometry vs actual yield per reaction step.
- • Solvent Mass Balance: Identify distillation losses and track recovery value credits.
- • Plant Block Capacity: Track Glass Lined Reactor (GLR) & Stainless Steel (SSR) cycle times and cleaning bottlenecks.
Batch Margin %
Calculated per finished drum with actual raw material and utility allocations.
"What exact quantity must the operator charge into Reactor R-102 right now?"
Eliminate manual pocket-calculator stoichiometry. The ERP automatically computes the exact weight of active reagent required based on the QC-tested assay of the raw lot issued from stores.
- • Dynamic Recipe Calculation: Auto-compensate charges for moisture content and active purity.
- • Operator Manhole Barcode Scan: Prevent charging the wrong raw material drum into a hot reaction vessel.
- • Digital Step Sign-Offs: Enforce strict order of addition, reflux temperature windows, and stirring RPM.
First-Pass Batch %
Batches passing in-process quality control without rework or re-crystallization.
"Can I trace this finished lot back to raw supplier containers within 60 seconds during an audit?"
Enforce strict digital quarantine gates. Unapproved raw materials cannot be issued by stores or charged by operators. One-click Certificate of Analysis (COA) pulls verified analytical tests directly from the QC workbench.
- • Automated Quarantine Locks: System blocks consumption until HPLC, GC, and KF parameters pass release criteria.
- • 1-Click Audit Traceability: Complete backwards and forwards batch genealogy generated instantly.
- • Out of Specification (OOS) Workflows: Mandatory root-cause investigation before material rejection or reprocessing.
100% Audit Readiness
Zero missing signatures, illegible register notes, or lost analytical slips.
"Which solvent drum should we issue, and when do sensitive catalysts expire?"
Manage hazardous materials with container-level barcode tagging and strict FEFO (First-Expired, First-Out). Avoid costly re-test penalties and expired inventory write-offs.
- • FEFO & Retest Alerts: Automated notification 30 days before raw material shelf-life expiration.
- • Flammable & Corrosive Storage Zones: Segregate incompatible hazard classes digitally across warehouses.
- • Tanker Weighbridge Integration: Gross and tare integration preventing tanker pilferage or invoice mismatches.
Zero Expired Stock
Strict automated expiry and re-test triggers prevent catalyst spoilage.
"What was the true landed cost per kg of this chemical intermediate?"
Move beyond simple purchase price accounting. Incorporate direct materials, boiler steam, chiller electricity, operator direct labor, and machine depreciation while crediting recovered solvent returns.
- • True Absorption Costing: Real-time allocation of utilities (steam, briquettes, power) to reactor hours.
- • Recovered Solvent Valuation: Automated inventory valuation of distilled solvents reducing batch net costs.
- • Automated GST E-Invoicing & E-Way Bills: Complete statutory dispatch compliance synchronized with gate passes.
Batch Cost/Kg
Computed with verified floor consumption rather than theoretical standards.

Follow One Batch Through Your Factory
Here is how a modern chemical manufacturing ERP connects every transaction from raw material inward to finished drum dispatch:
01 Inward, Weighbridge & Raw Material QC
Status: Mandatory QuarantineRaw material tanker or drum consignment arrives at gate. Digital weighbridge logs gross and tare weights directly into the ERP. A unique Supplier Lot is created and immediately flagged as QUARANTINE 🔒.
02 Production Planning & Assay-Aware Dynamic Recipe
Core InnovationStandard recipe requires 100 kg pure active ingredient at 100% assay. The system inspects the selected raw material lot (Assay: 94.2%) and automatically recalculates the required charge to 106.16 kg.
03 Reactor Charging & Digital BMR Execution
Shopfloor ControlShift operator scans drum barcode at reactor manhole. If the material does not match the recipe or is still quarantined, the system alerts and halts execution. Temperature, pressure, addition rate, and stirring parameters are logged with timestamped user signatures.
04 In-Process Quality Control (IPQC) & Reaction Completion
Quality AssuranceAt hour 6 of reflux, operator pulls reaction sample. Lab runs TLC or GC analysis for unreacted starting material. Approval gate in ERP clears batch for cooling, crystallization, and centrifugal filtration.
05 Solvent Distillation Recovery & Mass Balance
Closed-Loop ChemistrySpent mother liquor is transferred to distillation columns. Recovered solvent is tested for moisture/purity, assigned a new Recovered Lot number, and returned to inventory at distillation valuation to offset batch costs.
06 Finished Goods Packing & True Landed Batch Costing
Finance & CostingWet cake dried in Vacuum Tray Dryer (VTD), pulverized, and packed into 25 kg fiber drums with barcode labels. The ERP rolls up: Raw Materials + Boiler Steam + Chiller kWh + Labor Hours + Machine Depreciation - Solvent Credit = True Cost/Kg.
07 Customer Dispatch, 1-Click COA & E-Invoicing
Statutory ComplianceSales order assigned to specific drum lot. 1-Click Certificate of Analysis generated with analytical values locked from QC test results. Weighbridge gross/tare verifies truck weight, and GST e-Invoice & e-Way bill are created automatically.

Your Plant, Measured in Real Numbers
When shopfloor operations and quality control are digitized, management shifts from reactive fire-fighting to proactive operational discipline:
| Manufacturing KPI | What It Tells Plant Management | Operational Impact with Chemical ERP |
|---|---|---|
| Batch Yield (%) | Are reactors achieving theoretical stoichiometric recovery? | Immediate alert if actual dry yield drops below defined recipe threshold. |
| Raw Material Usage Variance | Where are operators consuming more active ingredients than planned? | Pinpoints whether excess charge was due to low potency or shopfloor spillage. |
| First-Pass Success Rate | How often does production pass final QC without rework? | Dramatically reduces re-crystallization and solvent wash rework cycles. |
| Solvent Distillation Recovery (%) | How much spent mother liquor is converted back into usable solvent? | Tracks distillation yields and mass balance across recovery columns. |
| Landed Batch Cost per Kg | What is the actual production cost including steam and power? | Includes boiler fuel, chiller power, direct labor, and machine depreciation. |
| QC Quarantine Hold Time | How long are drums sitting idle waiting for lab clearance? | Automated workflow alerts lab when sampling is complete to accelerate turnaround. |
| Out-of-Spec (OOS) Rate | Which product lines or reactors generate chemical deviations? | Enforces structured root-cause analysis before batch reprocessing. |
| FEFO Shelf-Life Aging | Where are temperature-sensitive catalysts approaching re-test dates? | Prevents expired inventory disposal through automated 30-day advance alerts. |
