LVC · Software & AI

Connect materials, production and the work around them.

LVC helps manufacturers and distributors connect operations software with the devices and infrastructure used on the floor. Begin with how materials arrive, move, change and leave the business.

Follow the material

One movement should have a clear meaning.

Receiving and storage

Identify what arrived, where it belongs and who checks it. Lot or serial tracking needs a defined purpose and consistent handling.

Work in progress

Decide when stock is reserved, issued, consumed or returned. Production status and physical movement need to reflect the same operation.

Dispatch and reporting

Connect the delivered item with the order and the records finance needs. Include shortages, substitutions, rework and returns in testing.

Software and the working environment

Plan the pieces together.

Software & AI

Odoo and ERP supports the operational workflow; inventory planning develops location, scanning and record responsibilities. Integrations address defined exchanges with other systems.

Building Technology

Production-floor and warehouse networks connect working devices. Cabling and camera systems belong in the physical site plan.

IT Support

Device and user support gives workstations, shared devices and access an agreed owner. Include operating hours, interruptions and escalation needs in the support discussion.

Before changeover

Rehearse with representative work.

A useful test includes receiving, an internal move, the production or fulfillment step and the resulting business records. Add a return or correction so the team can check the difficult path as well as the routine one.

Agree which system owns each record, who can change it and how the result will be reconciled. Lot tracking, valuation and accounting behavior depend on the implementation; a general description is not a guarantee of a particular configuration.

Before you decide

Useful questions.

Can this start with one department or workflow?

A focused phase can work when its inputs, outputs and links to the systems you keep are defined. Choose a complete process with people who can judge whether it works.

Do scanners and printers come before the software?

The scanning and labeling task should be defined first. Device compatibility, label content, access and network connections then belong in the same project plan.

A useful first conversation

Bring one material flow

Share the current setup, the people or spaces involved and what needs to change. Include the location and timing; keep passwords and confidential records out of the inquiry.

LVC welcomes inquiries across Vermont. Site visits, installation scope, travel and availability are agreed for each project. Vermont project planning.
