Bulk

Build it right, prove it’s right.

Disconnected tools create gaps operators shouldn’t have to close.

We fix that in a week with a Manufacturing OS built by how you work.

Pick your industry.
See it at work.

Short runs, many setups, and a travellers-and-whiteboards system only one person fully understands. If a job crosses benches and someone re-keys it at each one, this is your shape.

Sign-offs that matter, revisions that must not slip, and an auditor who will ask who changed what eight months later. Every touch is on the record the day the work is done.

Batches, lots and readings that have to reconcile at the end of the shift and stay traceable for years. Operators log it where the work happens; nobody rebuilds it from memory.

One job.
One record.

It reaches past the four walls.

The job doesn’t end at the plant fence. The record pushes clean into the ERP, out through a typed REST API and webhooks, and, when you want it, answers questions from your own AI, running in your region on your data, scoped and audited like any other user. The floor, as an endpoint. Compose it into the business you already run instead of bolting a silo beside it.

Integrations Ask your AI
It shows up live on every screen.

The operator counts a part at the machine, and the same second the supervisor’s phone, the bench tablet, the line terminal and the wall TV all move. One truth, many surfaces. No nightly batch, no dashboard two days behind, no board that’s stale by 8am. The record isn’t a report you pull later; it’s the plant watching itself in real time.

One truth, every surface
It answers to whoever’s allowed to touch it.

Everyone gets a login; not everyone gets the keys. Access reaches down to the single action (250+ levers on who can change a cure temp, sign off a batch, void a count) and every touch is on the record by default. So eight months later, when the auditor asks who changed what, the answer was written the day the work was done, not reconstructed after.

Access control Audit trail

Operators-first.
Not finance-first.

The screen your operators actually use.

Every job lands on the operator's screen at their station: the right steps, the right forms, the right specs, in the right order. They tap through, scan, sign, and move on. No spreadsheets. No “let me ask Dave.”

  • Step-by-step work instructions with photos and specs inline
  • Scan, sign, and capture results without leaving the job
  • Built for gloves, glare, and a shared station tablet

Workflows your engineers can ship before lunch.

Bulk's visual workflow builder turns whiteboard processes into running software. Drag a stage, attach a form, wire in a scan step, publish. The operator picks it up at their station, no app store.

  • Visual builder with versioning and audit trail
  • Inline forms, signatures, photos, scans, and conditionals
  • Connectors for SAP, NetSuite, Oracle, and most MES

The shift, on the wall.

The floor wall isn't decoration. It's where shifts get briefed, where production is run, and where problems are surfaced before they cost you a customer. Bulk's Teamboard is built for that wall.

  • SQDCP signals, live, with drill-through to root cause
  • Shift handoff notes versioned by shift, not by file
  • Kiosk mode designed to be read at 4 metres

Run by the floor.
Loved by the floor.

We replaced four spreadsheets, two whiteboards, and one homegrown WMS with Bulk in three weeks. The shift leads stopped asking IT for reports. They just open Bulk.
