Purchasing

Shop Floor

I was determined to build the business around first-class customer service and using PSL Datatrack to effectively run it from the outset was vital, and a no-brainer for me in terms of investment. It’s easy to use, traces and controls every order from quotation to invoice and shows me exactly what’s happening on the shop floor.

Charlie Caffyn, Caffyn Engineering Ltd
We chose Datatrack as the software system to manage and bring together our production and administration systems. It’s one of the best investments we have ever made.

John Clark, Chartway Industrial Services Limited
It is one of the best investments we ever made. We have added to the original modules as our business requirements changed plus we get all the upgrades and great support from PSL Datatrack.

Andy Allan, Linear Precision Engineers Ltd
Anything the inspector asked for, we could access immediately through PSL Datatrack. We can call up historic information quickly and quote accurately with consideration for variable stock holding, materials and manufacturing quantities in full knowledge that the quotations will be accurate and not over or under priced.

Adam Green, G23 Engineering Limited
We initially invested in a number of PSL Datatrack modules and benefitted immediately from closer control of our quotations and sales/purchase order processing functions. What’s more, information for a quotation only needed to be entered once and would then run right through the factory once an order had been secured, with no duplication of data required.

Mark Felstead, AW Engineering

Alex Taylor, CTPE Limited
Great team and very professionally run. Understanding to all commercial needs, even the most ridiculous-sounding. No hesitation in recommending Prospec Systems and the Datatrack software to companies seeking control, reporting, traceability and status boards.

Mike Garside, ANR Manufacturing Ltd
We’ve been customers of PSL for over 5 years now and Datatrack has made a huge, positive difference to the way we work. Whereas before, we’d have Excel spreadsheets here, Word documents there and random pieces of paper everywhere, Datatrack has brought all this together and now everything works seamlessly. The team themselves are very quick to assist if we have any problems and I cannot fault their service.

Mark Howlett, TK Fabrications
We’ve recently worked with the team on lots of Status Boards and further visual management of the data in the system. It’s transforming how we do things. The support from the team has been amazing. They really understood our requirements and helped us get to a bespoke system perfect for everyday interactions.

Thank you PSL. Look forward to working with you further.
