Like every Ektra project, this one began with a question, not a feature list: what is the one thing holding this business back? The fix came after the answer, and the result was judged by what it removed.

A machinery company ran its operations on spreadsheets and chat groups.

In practice

Project budgets in one file, payments and collections in another, HR requests by message, fleet bookings by phone.

  • Figures disagreed, approvals got lost, and management had no single view of the business.

We built an in-house operations system with 31 modules, the ones the company lives in.

What it covers

Projects and project logs, budgets with role based permissions, payment tracking and collections, quotations and revenue reports, dashboards, HR with announcements and open positions, fleet vehicles with requests and a schedule, boards for team work, chat, business documents and presentations, access requests, and a modules and roles admin.

  • It installs as a web app with push notifications, so the whole company works in one place.
