# Know where every build is,
from lay-up to handover.

DynamxMFG tracks long marine builds operation by operation, across hull work, fit-out and subcontract trades, so you can see live progress, true cost per boat and a complete record for certification.

## The build that drifts quietly

What hurts a marine build is rarely the craftsmanship. It is the months of small delays, spec changes and waiting on trades that nobody sees until the launch date has already gone.

### Every boat is a one-off

Customer options, owner changes and yard variations mean no two builds run the same way. The routing on paper stops matching what is actually happening in the shed.

### Fit-out depends on other people

Electrical, joinery, upholstery and rigging often sit with subcontractors and visiting trades. When one slips, the knock-on hits every trade behind them and nobody records it.

### Refit work eats the new build

Repairs, warranty jobs and refits pull the same people and the same bay space as new hulls. Without live visibility you find out which job slipped once the schedule is already broken.

Side by side

## Spreadsheets and generic tools vs DynamxMFG

Generic tools are built for short repeatable jobs, not for a boat that runs for months, changes as it goes and relies on visiting trades.

## Everything a boatbuilder needs. Nothing it does not.

DynamxMFG is built around the way a yard actually works, from lay-up and hull work through fit-out, subcontract trades, commissioning and handover.

### Works Orders for One-Off Builds

Each hull is a works order with its own bill of materials, routing and per operation notes. Owner changes and yard variations are made on the live build, and the change is recorded against that boat with the date and the person who made it.

**Replaces:** Paper route cards, job files, verbal spec changes

### Fit-Out and Subcontract Scheduling

Every fit-out stage is planned as its own operation with a work centre and dates. Electrical, joinery, upholstery and rigging steps sent to subcontractors sit in the same schedule as your own labour, so a late trade shows its effect on later stages straight away.

**Replaces:** Wall planners, trade call sheets, subcontract spreadsheets

### Cost per Boat

Labour, materials and bought-in items are booked against the build as the work is done. You can see where a one-off craft stands against its estimate while there is still time to act, rather than finding out after the invoice.

**Replaces:** Month-end cost reconciliations, estimate spreadsheets, guesswork

### Build Records and Handover Packs

Serial numbers, engine and equipment details, inspection results and sign-offs are captured at the operation itself. One record per hull covers lay-up through commissioning, so the certification pack and the owner handover file come from real production data.

**Replaces:** Paper sign-off sheets, photo folders, rebuilt handover files

Build records

## One record per hull, from lamination to handover

Every operation on a build is logged with a time, a job and the person who did it. Lay-up, cure, fit-out and commissioning all sit on the same job record, so the history of a hull is a search rather than a folder hunt.

That record is also what you hand over. Serial numbers, engine and equipment details, inspection results and sign-offs are captured at the operation itself, so the certification pack and the owner handover file are built from real production data.

- Full history on every hull, searchable
- Equipment and serial details captured at fit-out
- Inspection and sign-off recorded as work happens

## What manufacturers say about DynamxMFG

“DynamxMFG is an excellent choice for manufacturers looking to digitise operations without being overwhelmed by complexity.”

Kristopher SService Engineer at Protea“As GMC has grown, it had become harder for me to have such a keen view on components to see if those parts were profitable or not. DynamxMFG enabled us to monitor the machine time and see whether we are making a profit or a loss on each component.”

Paul BManaging Director at GMC“The ability to dynamically modify BOMs after release, adding or removing items from work orders, scrapping and reworking parts, has been the single biggest improvement for our business.”

Andrew TManaging Director at Protea“We chose the system over competitors because of its ease of use, strong customer support and friendly delivery team. So far, everything has matched what was promised.”

Amy MHead of Operations at Elite Skills Arena“With DynamxMFG, all our production processes are tracked and the relevant data is captured. This increases our control over the business and helps us identify more opportunities to enhance efficiency and quality.”

Neil SOperations Director at QK-TEX“Our experience has been positive, and it was definitely worth switching. The support we have received has been extremely helpful. My favourite feature is the integration and automation capabilities.”

Philippos FHead of Digital Transformation at CPLQuestions

## What marine manufacturers ask us

Can it handle builds that run for months?Yes. A build is tracked operation by operation however long it runs, so a hull in its first week and one in its final month both show live status. Long lead operations such as lamination and cure sit in the schedule alongside short fit-out tasks, and progress is measured against the plan for each stage.

Every boat we build is different. Does that break the system?No. Routings and bills of materials can be modified after a job has been released, so owner changes and yard variations are handled on the live build instead of a new job. The change is recorded against that boat, so you can see what was altered, when and by whom.

How do we handle subcontract and visiting trades?Subcontract steps are set up as operations in the same routing as your own work, with their own dates and costs. Bought-in labour and services are booked to the build like any other cost. When a trade runs late the operation stays open, and the effect on later stages is visible straight away.

We do refits and spares as well as new builds. Does that fit?Yes. Refit, warranty and spares jobs are tracked the same way as new builds, so they compete for labour and bay space inside the same schedule rather than sitting outside it. You can see what each job is costing and how much of the yard week is going on repair work rather than new hulls.

Does it help with certification and handover packs?It gives you the production evidence behind them. Inspection results, measurements, serial numbers and sign-offs are captured at the operation, so the record of what was fitted and checked is part of the job. Building a handover file becomes a search of real data rather than a rebuild from paper.
