Manufacturing SaaS for engineering-change financial exposure

A production-deployed B2B SaaS platform that helps hardware manufacturers quantify and resolve financial exposure before ECO and ECN approval. It reconciles BOM changes with open purchase commitments, inventory, work in progress, supplier terms, foreign exchange, and effectivity evidence, then separates known, estimated, and unresolved exposure. Teams can compare cutover scenarios, coordinate supplier responses and mitigation, govern approvals, and preserve executive-ready decision records. Key highlights • Purpose-built financial decision layer between engineering change and committed material • Deterministic exposure calculations with evidence traceability and confidence grading • Guided CSV/Excel onboarding, saved mappings, reconciliation review, and ingestion API • Supplier-resolution workflows, approvals, portfolio intelligence, and cumulative value tracking • Evidence-constrained AI that explains validated calculations without creating financial figures • Live production application, fictional public demo, documented transfer package, and ERP connector foundations The platform is pre-revenue and ready for design-partner commercialization. Business Central and NetSuite foundations require real-tenant validation.

Growth Opportunity:

The fastest path is to use existing manufacturing relationships to recruit 3-5 qualified design partners, run one sanitized historical or active ECO, measure time-to-decision and exposure identified, convert the validated workflow into a paid annual workspace, and publish a permissioned case study. The next technical priority should be validating only the ERP connector demanded by a real customer. Partner distribution through ERP/PLM consultants, manufacturing advisors, MEP organizations, and systems integrators provides additional upside.
