Costing, sample and packing-list records for Moradabad’s metal handicraft exporters and job workers.
Moradabad’s economy centres on metal handicraft exports and the old-city workshops that make them. On Delhi Road, export houses manage samples, costing sheets, audits and packing lists in Excel, while the workshops cast, polish, plate and engrave on job work. Order, costing and job-work software for them is built in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, around the spreadsheets already in use.
Moradabad’s metal trade began with brass and now covers aluminium, iron and mixed-material homeware, lighting and seasonal decor made for overseas retailers. Brass remains the name of the trade. Export houses along Delhi Road run showrooms for visiting buyers and depend on many smaller units in the old city for casting, polishing, plating and engraving.
Buyers meet exporters at the IHGF Delhi Fair at India Expo Mart each spring and autumn, and through buying agents in Moradabad and Delhi. The handicrafts SEZ on the city’s outskirts handles some of the larger export orders.

How Moradabad businesses pick and use software.
A large buyer’s request often starts the search for software. It might be a costing history, a compliance record, or a packing list in the buyer’s format that the exporter cannot yet produce. The merchandiser usually leads it.
Owners are experienced exporters who know their numbers, and they are cautious of ERP systems that assume a factory under one roof. Job workers across the old city must be modelled. It also needs a costing sheet that moves when the price of brass moves, in the same week rather than the next season.
Where Moradabad businesses lose time and money.
Quotes use old brass prices
A costing sheet built for last season’s metal rate is copied for a new buyer. The margin has moved by shipment. The metal rate should sit in one place.
Samples for the fair are tracked informally
Before and after the IHGF fair, one merchandiser may handle forty sample requests at once, each for a buyer who expects to see it in a fortnight. Which sample is at which workshop, and when it will be ready, is hard to say. Follow-up is by phone.
Packing lists are retyped for every buyer
Each buyer wants cartons, weights and item codes in its own format. Lists and invoices are rebuilt each time. Formats differ.

Can the software keep costing sheets linked to current metal prices?
Yes. Costing keeps metal weight, plating, finishing and packing as separate lines, and the metal rate updates in one place. Every quotation shows its costing date and margin.
Can it produce packing lists in each buyer’s format?
Yes. Item and carton data is kept once, and packing lists and invoices come out in each buyer’s template. The last five buyer formats are collected first.
What happens after I share my requirements?
An engineer reads what you send and replies within one business day. We then 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. You get a short written summary ordered by priority, with 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. That first review settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
