    All of our specials, work orders and stuff that we're going to be updating weekly, which is pretty sweet because we never had a good way to quantify how much a special costs or how much a part costs that isn't completed because we would only scrap out parts as a completed part, because otherwise you'd have, 200,000 entries of each part at each operation, right.

  2. 0:16

    And Unifize has definitely allowed us to be able to be like, "Hey, we scrapped that out off the laser. It didn't get formed and it didn't get machined. Why is it a $200 part when off the laser it’s $17?" Right.

    So we're getting it down finite on the dollar, which is I think, important. We have a fair one. We scan a lot of weld mints and fixtures and stuff to try to be able to dial them in more, I'd say, and we use it quite a bit.

  4. 0:38

    But I have a feeling that Unifize is going to allow me to use that probably I would say probably at least four times as much.

  5. 0:44

    I don't have an exact number, but like if I just think that there's five days in a week, I’m assuming that one day I could be using data entry or doing whatever in Unifize. And then the other four days I have a feeling that I'm going to be able to do a lot more on the floor.

    The way I've always looked at it was just trying to get the, my side of like the scrap and rework the dollar amount.

    Like I needed that all to be done before I was even going to bring up like our audits, like we want our audits on Unifize, for instance.

  8. 1:08

    So if somebody down on the floor needs a part check, they will legitimately just go over the tablet.

  9. 1:12

    They hit I need a part check at this machine before I go. And we go down there and we sign off and it all be logged in Unifize.
