Job Tracker · Simple AI inside
Production and quality
finally in one flow
Simpletrak's Job Tracker connects your shop floor to your QMS — tracking work orders, routing, WIP, QA checkpoints, and materials, with Simple AI flagging risk and scheduling bottlenecks before they cost you time.
✓ Linked to your QMS & CAPA
✓ AI scheduling & bottleneck alerts
✓ From quotes to finished goods

Production visibility shouldn't require three systems
Most manufacturers are running jobs in one system, tracking quality in another, and managing nonconformances in a third. Here's what changes.
Without Job Tracker
Work orders managed in spreadsheets or ERPStatus updates via email or verbal check-ins. Nobody has real-time visibility into where a job actually is on the floor.
QA checkpoints on paper travellersInspection results written by hand, scanned at the end of the job, filed — and disconnected from your quality system entirely.
Nonconformances discovered too lateA defect found at final inspection means rework, scrap, or a missed delivery — when it could have been caught at the first station.
Routing decided manually each morningBottlenecks discovered only when someone physically walks the floor. Capacity planning happens by gut feel.
No link between production and your QMSA job ships with a nonconformance. The CAPA is raised two weeks later — if at all.
With Job Tracker
Live WIP status across every stationScan at workstations to update job status in real time. Every stakeholder sees the same board — no chasing, no guessing.
Digital travellers with embedded QA checkpointsIn-process checks completed on a device, signed off digitally, and stored automatically — no paper, no scanning, full traceability.
NCs captured at the station, CAPA opened automaticallyNonconformances logged at the point of discovery. A CAPA is triggered in your QMS immediately — no lag, no lost paperwork.
AI-assisted routing and capacity alertsSimple AI suggests optimal routing based on current WIP, flags bottlenecks before they impact delivery, and highlights overloaded stations.
Production and QMS in a single platformEvery job is connected to your quality records, calibration status, and training history — one source of truth from order to shipment.

Status breakdown
Simple AI: Station 3 — Milling has 6 jobs queued with a combined 14 hours of work. At current throughput, 2 of this week's delivery commitments are at risk. Recommend redistributing JOB-1042 and JOB-1051 to Station 5 to recover the schedule.
From order to shipment — quality at every step
Simple AI works through the entire job lifecycle — connecting production progress directly to your quality records.
Plan
Work order creation & routing
Generate work orders and digital travellers from quotes or production schedules. Define routing across workstations, attach BOMs, drawings, specs, and MSDS sheets — all at the correct revision.
AI suggests optimal routing based on current WIP, station capacity, and delivery due dates.

WIP tracking & in-process QA
Operators scan at each station to update job status in real time. In-process QA checkpoints are completed digitally on the traveller — sign-offs captured, time tracked, nonconformances logged at the point of discovery.
AI detects bottlenecks in real time and alerts supervisors when a station's WIP threatens on-time delivery.
Close
Final QA, analytics & CAPA closure
Final inspection sign-off with full traveller history attached. Any open nonconformances are linked to CAPAs in your QMS. Job analytics — cost, yield, scrap, and on-time performance — are available immediately after closure.
AI links recurring NCs across jobs to identify systemic process issues and surfaces them as CAPA recommendations.

Everything your shop floor needs
Six integrated sub-modules — each with Simple AI built in to connect production and quality into one seamless flow.
Core job tracking modules
Work Orders & Travellers
Generate, schedule, and track digital work orders from quote through to finished goods. Digital travellers carry the full job history — routing, QA checkpoints, sign-offs, and NC records — from the first station to shipment.
AI flags jobs at risk of missing delivery based on current WIP and station throughput — before it's too late to recover.
Routing & Capacity
Define multi-step routing across workstations and track jobs as they move through your floor in real time. Live capacity visibility shows where work is piling up — before it becomes a late delivery.
AI suggests routing adjustments when bottlenecks are detected and alerts supervisors before delivery commitments are at risk.
QA Checkpoints
Embed in-process quality checks directly into the digital traveller. Operators complete sign-offs at each station — nonconformances are captured immediately and trigger CAPAs in your QMS automatically.
AI identifies recurring NC patterns across jobs and surfaces them as systemic CAPA recommendations rather than one-off fixes.
Time & WIP Tracking
Scan at stations to capture actual time vs planned. Real-time WIP visualisation shows every active job's exact position on the floor — actuals vs plan, time at each station, and overall job health.
AI compares actuals vs plan continuously and escalates jobs that are running significantly behind schedule.
Supporting modules
Materials & Docs
Link BOMs, drawings, specs, and MSDS sheets to jobs — always at the right revision. No more wrong-version documents on the floor.
Job Analytics
Cost, yield, scrap, and on-time performance with AI-powered risk heatmaps across jobs, customers, and part numbers.
QMS Integration
Every NC, CAPA, calibration status, and training record from your QMS is visible alongside the job — one platform, zero data silos.
