Salem makes sago, steel, silver anklets and sarees. The software behind each looks nothing alike.
Salem’s sago units, steel and engineering firms, silver anklet makers and saree weavers keep job work, stock and dealer credit in Tally, Excel and hand-kept registers. GullySystem builds job-work, stock and dealer software around these trades, starting with a free technology audit that the team runs from its Nagarbhavi office in Bengaluru.
Salem’s sago and starch units buy tapioca from farmers across the district and sell through the Sagoserve co-operative and private traders. Around the steel plant, engineering firms fabricate and machine for institutional buyers.
Silver anklets are made in small workshops on job work for traders, many of them in and around Shevapet. Sarees come from the looms of Elampillai and Jalakandapuram, and Leigh Bazaar is where much of the district’s produce trade meets.
The areas, estates and markets that matter in Salem.

How Salem businesses pick and use software.
Salem owners buy software through their auditor or a trade body, and the usual trigger is a GST change the old package cannot handle. Many workshops still run on a single desktop and a dot-matrix printer.
Silver and saree traders value privacy. They want data on their own machine or a cloud account in their own name, not a shared portal, and they ask that question first.
Where Salem businesses lose time and money.
Silver weight doesn’t match after job work
Traders give silver to workshops and get anklets back with a wastage allowance per design. Without job-wise weight records, losses are argued over, not measured.
Sagoserve and private sales are in two books
Units selling through the co-operative and to private traders keep separate records, and the owner never sees one stock figure.
Tender paperwork eats the engineers’ week
Fabricators supplying the plants spend days assembling quotations, drawings and compliance documents stored across email folders.

Read the case studyQuestions Salem owners ask before they call.
Can it track silver given to and returned by workshops?
Yes. Each job records metal issued, pieces and weight returned, and the wastage allowed for that design. The balance with every workshop is always visible, which ends most month-end disputes.
Will our data stay private?
It will. We can host on your own machine or on a cloud account in your company’s name, with access limited by role. The free audit also checks who can see what in your current setup.
What happens in the free technology audit?
We look at the software, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups your business runs on today and write down what works, what slows your team down and what is missing. A demo login, a screen-share or a few screenshots are enough to start. You get a report ordered by priority, and there is no obligation to hire us afterwards.
How much will the software cost?
We don’t publish a price, because it depends on what the system has to do. The audit settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
