Field operations
Mobile apps for technicians and operators on the plant floor and in the field — job data captured where the work happens, not back at a desk.
Industrial & Manufacturing
Apps built for the plant floor.
Namtech builds field-operations, inspection, production-visibility and work-order apps for manufacturers — designed for rugged conditions, poor connectivity and gloved hands, and integrated with the ERP or MES the business already runs on.
What we build
From the shop floor to the back office.
Six things a manufacturing app has to get right — field operations, inspections, production visibility, work orders, asset tracking and integrations — built to work together instead of as six disconnected tools.
Inspections & safety checklists
Digital checklists, photo evidence and sign-offs that replace paper forms and give you an audit trail for every inspection.
Production visibility
Live dashboards for output, downtime and throughput — so the line supervisor and the plant manager see the same numbers.
Work orders
Create, assign, track and close work orders from any device — with status, history and evidence attached to each job.
Asset & equipment tracking
Scan, locate and service machines and tools — with maintenance schedules and history tied to each asset.
Integrations with existing systems
Connect the app to the ERP or MES you already run on, so the shop floor and the back office stay in sync.
Who we build for
Every operation runs in a different environment.
Manufacturers
Plant-floor apps for production, quality and output tracking.
Field service
Job dispatch, inspections and reporting for teams on the road.
Facilities management
Asset tracking, maintenance and work orders across sites.
Energy & utilities
Field data capture and compliance checks in tough environments.
Engineering
On-site inspections, sign-offs and evidence tied to each job.
Warehousing
Stock movement, scanning and equipment tracking on the floor.
Why Industrial & Manufacturing is different
These apps live on plant floors and in the field, not at a desk. They need rugged flows that tolerate poor connectivity, big-target UI for gloved hands, and integration with the systems the business already runs on. We design for the shop floor first — offline-tolerant, hard to mis-tap, and wired into your ERP or MES.
What fits your build
Match your operation to a starting point.
These are honest starting points, not teaser rates — every project gets a fixed quote after one scoping call.

Asked by every operations team.
How much does a manufacturing app cost?
At Namtech, an app with work orders, production visibility and an ERP link is typically a Business build — from SGD 38,000, with a fixed quote after one scoping call. A focused single-team MVP can start from SGD 20,000, and a multi-site platform from SGD 90,000.
Does the app keep working with poor connectivity in the field or on the plant floor?
Yes. We design field flows to tolerate flaky or absent connectivity — capturing jobs, checklists and photos offline and syncing when the network returns — because in a plant or out in the field the signal is never guaranteed.
Can the app integrate with our ERP or MES?
Yes — ERP/MES integration is scoped up front. We connect work orders, assets and production data to the systems you already run on, so the shop floor and the back office stay in sync. Deep integration is usually a Business build from SGD 38,000 or an Enterprise build from SGD 90,000.
Can it handle inspections and compliance sign-offs?
Yes. We build digital inspection and safety checklists with photo evidence, timestamps and sign-offs, giving you an audit trail for every job that stands up to a compliance review.
Is it usable by field teams wearing gloves in tough conditions?
Yes. We design big-target, rugged interfaces for gloved hands and bright or dirty environments, and roll out to field teams with training and support so adoption actually sticks.
How long does a manufacturing app take to build?
Most field-operations and work-order apps ship in 12–20 weeks, including QA on real devices and App Store & Google Play submission. Timeline is confirmed in the proposal.
