From the first enquiry to the final invoice.

Every job runs through SETRA from start to finish, so its cost and margin build up while the work happens, not at month end.

Follow a job through SETRA.

You decide which steps your shop uses and who does each one.

  1. Price it

    Build the parts list, see what the job should cost, and send the quote as PDF or Word.

  2. Win it

    The order becomes a job, with its delivery date and any changes the customer asks for along the way.

  3. Buy for it

    What the job needs and you don't have gets requested, approved and ordered. Goods are checked when they arrive.

  4. Make it

    Work orders go to the shop floor. Material, hours and quality checks land on the job as they happen.

  5. Ship it

    Pack it, print the papers, do the final check and raise the invoice.

  6. Learn from it

    Quoted margin against margin so far, and where the difference came from.

What you see in SETRA.

Every open job's margin, the ones slipping furthest first. Open one to see where the money went.

Built around how your shop already works.

SETRA is set up for your steps, your approvals and your paperwork. Your people keep doing their jobs, and the software follows.

Everyone sees what their work needs. Prices, costs and margins stay with the people you choose.

Run the whole shop on it, or start where it matters most.

Questions before you start.

Who is SETRA for?

Job shops, contract manufacturers and makers of machines and assemblies. Smaller companies with real production complexity, no IT department and no time for a year-long software project.

What does SETRA do?

It runs every order from enquiry to invoice: quotes, orders, purchasing, the shop floor, dispatch and invoicing. And it shows what each job is earning while the work is still happening, not after the invoice.

How long does it take to get started?

We set SETRA up for you, around the way your shop already works. It is built to have you running in days, not months.

Can we bring our spreadsheets?

Yes. Your parts lists and materials come across from Excel or CSV files, so you don't start from an empty system.

Do we have to replace everything we use today?

No. Run the whole shop on SETRA, or start where it hurts most and keep the rest of your setup.

Who sees prices and margins?

You decide. Your team sees the work in front of them. Prices, costs and margins stay with you and whoever you choose.

Do we need to install anything?

No. SETRA runs in the web browser, so there is nothing to install on your computers.

Where is our data kept?

In the EU. Your data is stored in the Netherlands.
