One system for element marks, casting beds, cube results, yard bays and erection loads.
Precast projects, element schedules, drawing revisions, rebar cages, embedded items, casting beds, cube tests, yard stock and trailer loads are held in one system. Each mark is followed from drawing to pour, from demoulding to bay, and from the gate to the crane. The steel shop bends cages from it, the crew pours to it and dispatch loads trailers by it. No one chases a mark.
- Element types, moulds and casting beds entered the way the plant runs them
- Project schedules and open marks migrated
- Edits to element types and checklists made by GullySystem staff when asked
Precast plants run projects, element marks, casting beds, cube results, yard bays and trailer loads on Precast Concrete Manufacturer Management Software from GullySystem. Each mark carries its drawing revision, embeds and strength record to the site it ships to.
What goes wrong before the software.
How the work flows through it, step by step.
- 1
Project and element schedule
The planner loads the project and its list of marks with drawing number, revision, volume and weight. Delivery dates are set against the erection plan. The sequence is fixed here.
- 2
Bed and mould allocation
Marks are assigned to casting beds and moulds by date. The system shows how many times each mould has been used. Wear is visible.
- 3
Cage, embeds and pre-pour check
The steel shop makes the cage for the current revision. A checker confirms cover, embeds and lifting inserts and signs off before the concrete arrives. No sign-off, no pour.
- 4
Pour, cubes and curing
The pour is logged with mix and time, and cubes are cast for the element. Curing method and days are recorded until the cube result clears the unit for lifting.
- 5
Demould, finish and yard
The unit is lifted, inspected and repaired if needed, then placed in a numbered bay. Finishing and any coating are entered against the mark. Repairs are listed.
- 6
Load, deliver, erect
Trailers are loaded in erection order. The site signs for the marks received, and rejected units go back on the list. Nothing is forgotten.
What is inside.
Every module can be switched on, left out or changed to match how your team already works.
The business modules it is built from.
Each one is also available on its own, or inside a system built for you.
- Project Management Reports
Every mark is listed under its project with weight, volume and delivery date, so progress from planned to erected reads from one page.
- Document Management
Each shop drawing is stored against its mark with revision letters, and a late revision raises a warning before the pour.
- Production Planning
Marks are placed on beds and moulds by date, so two elements never claim one mould and pour counts accumulate for each.
- Quality Control
A checker confirms cover, plates and lifting inserts against the shop drawing, and the pour is released only after a signed check.
- Batch and Serial Tracking
Each pour and its cubes are tied to the element mark, so crush results can be read for any unit that has shipped.
- Stock Tracking and Alerts
Finished marks are held by bay or rack with their age, and a search by mark number returns the location.
- Vehicle and Trip Management
Trailer loads follow the erection order, with each mark checked at the gate and weights summed against the vehicle’s limit.
- Invoice Management
Stage invoices are raised from marks delivered or erected at the contract rate, with retention shown beside each project balance.
How we would put it in.
Setup, data migration, integrations and anything built on top.
One system, each person sees their part.
For owners and plant managers
Read marks cast against plan, yard stock, units awaiting a cube result and project billing without walking the beds.
For production planners
Allocate marks to beds and moulds, watch revisions land, and plan loads in the erection order the site gave.
For the steel shop and fixers
See the cage and embed list for the current revision of each mark and report a finished cage for checking.
For quality staff
Release the pour, record cubes and decide whether a unit may be lifted. Raise a non-conformance against a mark. Hold the load.
For yard and dispatch
Find a mark by bay, build the trailer in order and record the gate check.
The numbers the owner asks for.
- Marks by status, project and bed
- Cube results against lifting and delivery strength
- Mould pour counts and repairs
- Yard stock by bay, age and mark
- Drawing revisions issued after cage fabrication
- Deliveries by project, trailer and rejected marks
- Stage invoices and retention by project
Who this is built for.
- Plants that cast beams, columns and slabs for building frames
- Makers of wall panels and façade units
- Factories producing hollow-core planks and floor slabs
- Producers of manhole rings, culverts and drainage units
- Plants that supply to a contractor’s erection programme
- Yards that run steam curing and several casting beds
When it is not the right choice.
- A small yard that casts kerbs or fence posts to a standing order can run on counts and a delivery book.
- Makers whose main product is solid blocks and pavers will find Concrete Block Manufacturer Management Software closer.

Questions owners ask before a demo.
What if a drawing revision arrives after the cage is made?
The mark is flagged on the bed schedule the moment the new revision is loaded. The steel shop and quality checker see the flag before the pour, and the old drawing stays on file.
Can it stop a unit being lifted too early?
Demoulding is blocked until the strength condition you set for that element type is met. Your engineers decide the limit, and an override needs a named approver.
Does it count how often each mould is used?
Yes. Every pour adds to the mould’s pour count, and repairs or liner changes are logged. A mould nearing the wear limit you choose is shown on the planning screen.
How do we find a mark in the yard?
Each finished unit sits in a numbered bay or rack. Searching a mark returns its bay, age and condition, so the crane driver goes straight to it.
Can trailers be loaded to match the erection sequence?
Yes. The load list is built in the order the erection plan gives, and the gate check confirms each mark before the trailer leaves.
How are rejected elements handled?
The site records the mark and the reason. The unit returns to the casting plan as a repair or a recast, and its cost stays on the project account.
Is the project view shared with the contractor?
A limited view can be given to the contractor’s engineer. It shows marks cast, in yard, loaded and delivered. Cube results are shared only when you choose.
What does it cost, and what do I see first?
Price is set by beds, plants and users. We start by loading one of your casting schedules to show the flow, and the offer arrives in a document afterwards.
Can the plant take its records out later?
Marks, cube results and delivery history can be exported as spreadsheets. The column layout for those exports is fixed with you when the quotation is signed.
