ACRS certification is becoming the price of entry for structural and reinforcing steel

Steel traceability and job-status visibility are still spreadsheet problems at most mills and fabricators. We build the system instead.

Steel fabricators, mills, and wholesale distributors need mill-certificate traceability and real-time job-status visibility that most are still tracking by hand. We build the traceability and workflow tooling this vertical needs — grounded in work we already do in steel fabrication and wholesale supply.

  • Real-time job-status tooling
  • Yard & inventory management
  • Dispatch & delivery documentation
Why Now

ACRS certification is becoming the price of entry for structural and reinforcing steel

Australian government infrastructure agencies and major building specifications increasingly require steel certified to AS/NZS 4671 (reinforcing steel) and AS/NZS 3678 (structural steel) through the Australasian Certification Authority for Reinforcing and Structural Steels (ACRS) — turning mill-certificate traceability from good practice into a procurement gate.

01
What It Requires

ACRS-certified batches traceable from mill certificate through fabrication and delivery, with records that can be produced on request for tender submissions and project audits.

02
Who It Affects

Steel fabricators, mills, and wholesale distributors supplying government infrastructure projects and builders that name ACRS certification in their procurement specifications.

03
Cost of Inaction

Fabricators and distributors who can't produce ACRS-linked traceability records on request risk exclusion from tenders and specifications that now name ACRS certification as a condition of supply.

What We Build

Traceability and job-status tooling for fabricators and distributors, not a generic ERP module.

01

Mill Certificate Traceability

Systems that link material batches to mill certificates and ACRS certification records, carrying that record through fabrication and delivery — so provenance is a lookup, not a paper search.

Integrates with your existing fabrication and dispatch process.
02

Job & Order Status Tooling

Real-time job-status tracking across fabrication stages, replacing whiteboards and phone calls with a system floor staff and sales can both see.

Replaces whiteboard and phone-call status tracking directly.
03

Yard & Inventory Management

Location- and batch-level tracking of steel and material stock across yard and warehouse, so on-hand quantity and provenance are always current, not reconciled at stocktake.

Feeds directly from the same batch records used for mill certificate traceability.
04

Quoting & Cut-List Configuration

Order configuration tooling for custom cut lists and fabrication specs, cutting the back-and-forth between sales and the shop floor over what was actually quoted.

Feeds directly into job and order status tracking once a quote is confirmed.
05

Supplier & Purchase Order Integration

Links incoming purchase orders and supplier certificates directly to the batches they cover, closing the gap between what was ordered and what traceability record it produced.

Integrates with your existing supplier ordering process.
06

Dispatch & Delivery Documentation

Digital delivery dockets and proof-of-delivery records that carry the traceability chain through to the customer, instead of ending at the loading dock.

Closes the traceability chain started at mill certificate intake.

How We Engage

A shorter first engagement, scoped to the highest-friction operational gap, with room to extend into the full traceability chain.

01

Operational Workflow Review

We walk your traceability and job-tracking process floor-to-office to find where paper or spreadsheets are actually creating risk or delay.

02

Scoped Sprint Plan

A fixed-price sprint plan targeted at your highest-friction gap first — usually mill certificate traceability or job-status visibility — so you get a working system without committing to a full rollout up front.

03

Build on Django/DRF + React

A pragmatic, integration-friendly stack: Django/DRF backends built for data integrity, React interfaces floor staff and sales can use without training sessions.

04

Traceability Validation Before Launch

We validate that the batch-to-certificate chain — including ACRS certification records where required — holds up end-to-end before go-live, not after a customer or auditor asks for a record it can't produce.

05

Fixed-Price, Short Cycle

A scoped, fixed-price first build sized to prove the approach before a larger rollout — built for fabricators and distributors without an internal engineering team.
