Into Ignite Lean
  • Job orders
  • Routings + operations
  • Material requirements
Back to Made2Manage (ECi)
  • Labor + completion
  • Scrap
  • Material consumption

How It Works

  1. 1Made2Manage jobs sync to Ignite Lean via API or scheduled file.
  2. 2Operators clock labor and report completion on the kiosk instead of typing it into M2M.
  3. 3Actuals post back via the M2M data shop.

Recommended Workflows

How Made2Manage (ECi) works best with Ignite Lean. These are recommended patterns: Ignite Lean fires the trigger, and how Made2Manage (ECi) routes it (which work group, which device, which rule) is configured to your IT setup.

Order to floor to close
Trigger A production or work order is released in Made2Manage (ECi)
  1. 1Made2Manage (ECi) pushes the order to Ignite Lean.
  2. 2Operators build it on the kiosk with visual work instructions and live traceability.
  3. 3On completion, Ignite Lean posts quantities, labor, and scrap back.
  4. 4Made2Manage (ECi) closes the order with real actuals, not an estimate.
Your ERP always reflects what actually happened on the floor.
Quality hold blocks the shipment
Trigger A non-conformance is opened against a build
  1. 1Ignite Lean fires a quality-hold event.
  2. 2Made2Manage (ECi) flags the order or lot on hold.
  3. 3Shipping cannot release it until the CAPA closes.
  4. 4When disposition completes, Ignite Lean lifts the hold.
Bad product cannot ship, enforced in the system your shippers already use.
Live cost actuals
Trigger Labor and material are recorded during the build
  1. 1Ignite Lean streams labor hours and material consumption.
  2. 2Made2Manage (ECi) updates job cost in near real time.
  3. 3Finance sees true margin per order as it is built.
Job costing stops being a month-end guess.
