Growth in manufacturing often exposes operational weaknesses long before they become visible on financial reports.
For small and mid-sized machine shops, increasing demand can quickly strain manual processes, fragmented systems, and limited visibility into jobs, tooling, and workflows. Without a structured, process-driven approach, teams spend more time searching for information than producing parts.
This whitepaper from ProShop examines how Corma Industries, an Alberta-based contract manufacturer, transformed its operations by adopting a process-focused manufacturing execution system. Led by a clear vision for modernization, Corma used ProShop to improve tracking, tooling management, scheduling, and overall shop floor efficiency.
Drawing on Corma’s real-world experience, the paper highlights how replacing informal workflows with structured digital processes helped the company overcome growth challenges, improve machine utilization, and prepare for future compliance requirements.
You will learn how:
- Manual job tracking limits visibility and slows production
- ProShop enabled Corma Industries to centralize work orders, tooling, and scheduling
- Tooling management reduced setup time and improved shop floor efficiency
- Machine utilization increased by approximately 40 percent after implementation
- Process-driven systems simplify audits and support long-term growth
The whitepaper also details how ProShop helped Corma improve audit readiness and quality management. By providing instant access to job data and documentation, audits became faster, simpler, and less disruptive to daily operations.
This whitepaper is designed for machine shop owners, operations leaders, and manufacturing teams seeking practical insight into how process-driven systems can improve efficiency, accountability, and scalability.
