Forged from decades of working alongside metal service centers and fabricators, Capstone gives you
the power to manage all your inventory, sales, and production efforts in real-time.
From accounting, inventory control, and demand forecasting to purchasing, sales,
and CRM, our software was designed to improve efficiency, grow your business,
and change the game.
Our experience working with service centers
and fabricators has helped us create applications built directly for your industry-specific needs.
Capstone is flexible, and our expert team works
with you every step of the way to provide the
operational solutions you need from the moment
the software is installed.
While Capstone was designed with the cloud in
mind, our system will run just as well on a
server that’s on your premises.
Capstone will seamlessly handle all of your
real-life production efforts from purchase
to delivery. Whether it’s recurring production
or a one-off fabrication order, Capstone has
you covered.
Capstone includes standard reports
delivered on screen in portable document
format (PDF) and produces a wide variety of
Microsoft Excel extracts. Capstone’s
database—Microsoft SQL Server—is open to
external queries, so you can produce your
own dashboards, reports, and extracts using
off-the-shelf applications like Microsoft’s
Power BI or SQL Server Reporting Services
(SSRS) and SAP’s Crystal Server.
Capstone includes a demand forecasting
system that will give your purchasing
department a better shot at ordering the
right quantity the first time. Capstone
also supports simple minimum and
maximum quantity levels.
Capstone allows you to track remnants. You
decide what gets restocked and what gets
scrapped. If the scrap quantity is large, you’ll
be warned so that you can correct any data
entry errors. Capstone capitalizes scrap loss.
This is a category-level setting in Capstone,
which is nice if you don’t need heat
traceability for everything you sell.
Customers can be configured to receive a
copy of the applicable test report(s) with
shipment, via email, and/or via traditional
mail. Capstone stores the original test report
as well as an optional, redacted copy.
Customers can be configured to receive
redacted or original test reports..
Capstone supports pre-defined schedules
for delivery, processing, and skid revenue. Of
course, Capstone also allows you to add
revenue for special packaging, handling, etc.
Additional revenue is transparently folded
into the price that you quote your customer.
Flexible customer pricing, including the
option to calculate the base price using the
current average cost, replacement cost, or a
discrete cost.
There’s no forced relationship between
branches and warehouses. Warehouses can
be owned by a branch or shared. In addition
to standard warehouses, Capstone supports
Consignment and Outside Processor
type warehouses.
If you don’t require heat traceability for all of your inventory, Capstone supports what we call “location-only inventory”. All that Capstone can tell you about an item configured this way is the quantity on hand and the quantity available, after reservations, in one or more warehouse locations
Country Tracking
Capstone tracks the country that the
material was mined, melted, manufactured,
and fabricated in. If you don’t know where
the material was mined or melted, you can
select the fictitious country “Unknown”.
If the material has never been fabricated,
Capstone allows you to bypass the
“Fabricated-In Country” field.
Capstone is integrated with BarTender label
design and printing software. Capstone
produces both stock and shipping labels,
with or without barcodes. BarTender allows
you to design custom labels.
Capstone supports both simple and complex
customer parts. Capstone allows you to
store the drawing file as well as the file that
your customer sent you.
Capstone includes full support for
random-length inventory. For example,
Capstone will track the number of pieces
and total number of feet in a random-length
bundle of oilfield pipe.
