Holded for industrial companies
One system to control stock, production, purchasing and invoicing, without depending on three tools that don't talk to each other.
An industrial company doesn’t invoice like a consultancy or manage stock like an online store. It needs to know what raw material it has in the warehouse, how much it actually costs to manufacture each product, and whether the margin holds up when a supplier’s price goes up. Holded connects all of that in a single ERP: inventory, purchasing, production and accounting, all in one place.
REAL-TIME STOCK AND WAREHOUSE CONTROL
Every movement of raw material, work-in-progress and finished product is recorded instantly. If you work with several warehouses or production centers, Holded lets you see available stock in each one without cross-referencing spreadsheets.
Key benefit: you always know what’s in the warehouse and what you need to buy, with no stockouts and no over-purchasing.
BILLS OF MATERIALS AND MANUFACTURING COSTS
Every manufactured product has a real cost: raw material, labor, processes. Holded lets you build bills of materials that calculate that cost automatically and update it whenever a component’s price changes. That way you know whether each product’s margin is still what you expected.
Key benefit: you stop pricing by guesswork and start pricing on the real cost of manufacturing.
PURCHASING AND SUPPLIER MANAGEMENT
Purchase orders, delivery times and price history per supplier are all centralized. When a raw material’s stock drops below the minimum, you can generate the purchase order directly from the item’s own record.
Key benefit: you buy what you need, when you need it, without relying on someone on the team remembering.
INVOICING AND ACCOUNTING CONNECTED TO PRODUCTION
Invoicing isn’t a separate process: it’s connected to inventory and to production projects. Every sale deducts stock automatically, and every manufacturing cost is reflected in accounting, with no double data entry.
Key benefit: a single source of truth for production, sales and accounting. Fewer errors, fewer hours spent reconciling numbers.
PROFITABILITY REPORTS BY PRODUCT AND BY CLIENT
With all the information in the same system, you can see which products, lines or clients are actually profitable, and which ones are quietly costing you money.
Key benefit: pricing, product-mix and client decisions based on real data, not intuition.
WHO THIS IS FOR?
This implementation is built for manufacturers, production workshops and industrial companies that:
- Manage raw material, work-in-progress and finished product
- Work with several suppliers and need to control lead times and prices
- Want to know the real cost of each product, not an estimate
- Are growing and can no longer control stock and purchasing with spreadsheets
FAQ FOR INDUSTRIAL COMPANIES
Can Holded manage a full manufacturing process? Holded lets you control raw material, bills of materials, stock and invoicing in a connected way. [Editorial note: confirm whether the manufacturing/bill-of-materials module is available on all plans or only from a specific tier, before publishing.]
Can I control stock across several warehouses at once? Yes. Holded lets you manage multiple warehouses and see available stock in each one independently.
How does Holded calculate a product’s manufacturing cost? Through bills of materials, which add up the cost of raw material and other components associated with each manufactured product.
Do I need technical knowledge to implement it? No. At GROUPmee we handle the setup, data migration and training for your team, adapted to your real production process.
What’s the difference between hiring Holded on your own vs. through GROUPmee as a partner? With GROUPmee you get an implementation adapted to your actual manufacturing process, not a generic setup: prior analysis, data migration, configured bills of materials and training for your team.
At GROUPmee we’re part of Holded’s Solution Partner program. We don’t just activate a license and leave it there: we analyze your production process, configure inventory and bills of materials to fit your business, and train your team so the tool works from day one.
