Product manufacturers & light assembly

ERP for products
& repeat assembly.

Start the next production batch from a defined parts list and clear assembly operations. Jems brings product BOMs, component requirements, stock, purchasing and recorded work together for finished products and light assembly.

Illustrative workflow / repeat product assembly

Defined products, repeatable work

Give the next batch a clear starting point.

Repeating a product means repeating component and operation decisions. Use the product structure to review what the batch needs, then record assembly work to inform future estimates.

Manufacturing workflows to explore

  • Finished products
  • Light assembly
  • Repeat production batches
  • Manufactured subassemblies

Keep the product definition together

Use BOMs to show purchased components, manufactured parts and subassemblies. Keep versions, drawings and datasheets with the information your team uses to prepare each batch.

Explore product BOMs →

Review components before assembly

Bring batch quantities together with stock and purchasing through MRP. Follow the requirements for parts you manufacture as well as the components you need to buy.

Explore batch material planning →

Learn from the assembly work

Define operations and follow works orders through production. Record progress and shop-floor time, then review operational variance when considering the costing assumptions for a repeat batch.

An example product batch

A batch of bench-mounted clamps.

Follow an illustrative batch of 30 bench-mounted clamps. Review the manufactured housing and purchased components, plan the batch requirements, then follow machining and assembly work.

01 / Define the product

Start each batch from a defined parts list.

The clamp combines a housing you manufacture with bought-in threaded parts, pads and fasteners.

Define the product · sample job information
Component Per clamp For 30 clamps
Housing 1 30
Threaded spindle 1 30
Jaw pad 2 60

Keep the BOM version, drawings and operations alongside the product information used to prepare the batch.

02 / Plan the batch

Review components before preparing assembly.

Bring the batch quantities together with stock and purchasing so the component requirements are clear.

Follow the requirements for manufactured components as well as the items your business needs to purchase.

03 / Record the work

Use assembly time to inform the next batch.

Define the production operations and record progress and time against the work.

Check your requirements

Start with your job.
Check the important detail.

Bring a finished product’s BOM, a recent batch and an example of how customer orders become production work.

Available to demonstrate

Defined product structures, versions, manufactured and purchased components, material planning, stock, assembly operations, progress and recorded time.

Assess with our team

Product variants, packing, replenishment, demand forecasting and channel integrations. Include any recipe, formulation, yield or shelf-life requirements separately.

Planned development

Product Configurator and Scheduling are targeted for Q4 2026. Engineering Change Control and broader Production Quality are on the 2027 roadmap. See the product roadmap for development targets.

Built & supported in the UK

A practical route from demo to go-live.

Start with a representative job. Agree the software fit, the data to bring across and the help your team needs before implementation begins.

A demo around your work

Bring a finished product’s BOM and a recent batch. We’ll follow component requirements, stock, purchasing and the operations your assembly team performs.

Book your workflow demo

A scope you can review

We assess your current system, records and history, then agree migration coverage, validation, training and responsibilities. Your team checks representative jobs before the planned cutover.

Your questions

Jems for products & light assembly.

Can we make repeat batches as well as customer-specific orders?

Jems connects defined part structures, material requirements, customer orders and works orders. Bring examples of your repeat batches and customer-specific work so we can follow how you prepare and release production in each case.

Can a product include components we manufacture ourselves?

Yes. Multi-level BOMs can combine bought-in components with manufactured parts and subassemblies. Those product structures connect with material planning and production operations.

Does a production batch mean Jems supports recipes or formulations?

The batches described here are quantities of identifiable products made from parts and assembly operations. Recipes, formulations, yield calculations and shelf-life controls are different requirements. Include them in the assessment if they are part of your manufacturing process.

Can the assembly team record work without full office access?

Jems Standard includes 25 shop-floor-only workers alongside 10 full-access users. Shop-floor workflows include job progress and time capture. We demonstrate the access appropriate to your team’s roles; see pricing for the package and additional access.

What does Jems cost for this manufacturing workflow?

The same Jems Standard subscription applies across these industry workflows: £1,249 per month excluding VAT, including 10 full-access users and 25 shop-floor-only workers. Additional access is sold in blocks; larger deployments receive a tailored quote. Implementation, migration and training are scoped and quoted separately. Use the team pricing calculator to explore your subscription.

How long does implementation take?

We agree a timetable after reviewing your data, workflows and training needs. The scope defines the records and history to migrate, validation checks, responsibilities and the planned cutover. Your team has time to check migrated records and test representative jobs before go-live.
