Case Studies
Systems we've shipped.
Real problems, purpose-built systems, outcomes that last. Our first system is still in production 13 years later. That's the standard.
Industrial Components — Ball Screws & Guideways
Origin StoryShree Associates
The Problem
Shree Associates dealt in precision industrial components — ball screws and guideways — which are sold in cut lengths. Larger stock pieces were cut to customer-specified sizes, leaving remnant pieces that needed to be tracked. Without a system, off-cuts were misplaced, double-counted, or forgotten. Inventory was managed in hand-written registers with no traceability from original stock to cut piece to sale.
The System
We built a custom PHP application — our very first system — designed entirely around their cut-piece workflow. It ran on a single local machine and was made available across the office via LAN. No cloud, no server, no IT team. Just a browser, a machine, and a system that matched exactly how they worked. The application tracked raw stock intake, cut operations with remnant logging, piece-level inventory, and outward dispatch. It was later migrated to cloud infrastructure as the business grew.
Impact
- Still in production 13+ years after first deployment
- Ran without a single code update for the first 8 years
- Full cut-piece traceability from raw stock to dispatch
- Successfully migrated to cloud with zero operational disruption

Precision Fastener Manufacturing
Built on TrustNewtech Fasteners
The Problem
Newtech Fasteners needed a system to generate and share test certificates for their fastener products — a compliance-critical document in the industry. But they'd been burned before. Multiple vendors had taken their requirements documents, collected advances, and disappeared. Their position was unambiguous: no advance. Build something that works, show us, and we'll pay. Most people would have walked away.
The System
We didn't walk away. Akshay and Sandhya spent 3–4 months building the system — Shailesh brought the industry knowledge. The principle we established here is one we've held ever since: augment, don't replace. Newtech already had a custom ERP. We didn't ask them to abandon it. We built around it, with Excel-based import as the bridge. The system generates and shares compliant test certificates, tracks issuance history, and has scaled with the business through ownership changes, entity restructuring, and a global pandemic. In 2026, we pushed an update. The system responded. It has generated lakhs of test certificates since the day we handed it over — and it's generating more as you read this.
Impact
- Lakhs of test certificates generated — and counting
- Survived management changes, entity restructuring, and COVID
- 12+ years without a single failure of the core promise
- Update shipped in 2026 — still active, still trusted
- Established our 'augment, not replace' principle that guides every engagement

Energy Metering & Industrial Electronics
Enterprise GenesisEltrac Meters (formerly Cadel Meters)
The Problem
It started with a website. We met the founder of Cadel Meters — an energy meter manufacturer — and were asked to build their web presence. That single conversation opened a chapter that lasted nearly a decade. As the company transitioned and rebranded to Eltrac, we transferred everything we'd learned from the Cadel side and helped build the new identity. What followed was a series of small applications that grew our understanding of their operations — until the inevitable question: could we build them a full ERP?
The System
Mr. Gurudath, who led Eltrac, gave us something rare: a free hand. No committee sign-offs on every decision, no prescribed architecture. Just trust, deep domain access, and the space to build it properly. We built a custom ERP around their manufacturing and distribution operations — and for the first time, we embedded hardware directly into software. Eltrac made meters. Our system talked to them. Meter data flowed into the ERP, inventory tracked components against production, and the business ran on what we built. This was where we learned how real enterprise systems are made and scaled — not from a textbook, but from the inside of a live manufacturing operation.
Impact
- Entered website development — first of many client sites built
- First hardware-software integration — meters embedded in production ERP
- Full ERP covering manufacturing, distribution, and meter data
- Years of iterative small applications before the ERP — trust earned, not assumed
- Formative engagement that defined DoozieSoft's enterprise methodology
Stack
Eltrac was acquired by Invendis in the early 2020s. The engagement ended. The lessons didn't.
Heavy Manufacturing
Multi-Plant Manufacturing Company
The Problem
The client operated three manufacturing plants with a complex contractor workforce. Work permits were issued on paper, stored in binders, and audited manually. There was no visibility into which permits were active at any time, and compliance audits required days of manual retrieval. A single missed permit could result in regulatory penalties.
The System
We built a digital Work Permit Management system covering hot work, cold work, height work, confined space, and electrical permits. The system enforces a mandatory maker-checker workflow: field supervisors initiate permits, safety officers approve, and plant managers can override with full audit logging. Contractor and workmen data is linked to each permit. Real-time dashboards show active permits by area, expiry alerts, and compliance status.
Impact
- 380% efficiency gain in permit processing time
- Zero compliance violations in the first year post-deployment
- Full permit history retrievable in seconds for audits
- Contractor workforce visibility across all three plants

Watch Manufacturing
Sole IT PartnerJayashree Horologicals
The Problem
Jayashree Horologicals is a Bangalore-based watch manufacturer with a workforce spanning production, administration, and maintenance. When we first engaged them in 2014, HR was running on spreadsheets, payroll was manual and error-prone, attendance records were inconsistent, and there was no audit trail for approvals. Over time, the same gaps appeared in operations — inventory, stores, purchases, and accounting were all disconnected. And then there was the glass cutting machine: a custom-built in-house CNC machine used to cut watch glass. It had no software. The operator worked from hand calculations.
The System
We became their sole IT systems partner — not for one project, but for everything. We built the full Doozie HRMS: biometric attendance integration, payroll with statutory compliance, multi-level leave approval, expense claims, and employee self-service. We extended this into a custom ERP covering stores, purchase workflows, and inventory. We built an accounting package tailored to their operations. And we built a CNC code generation utility for their in-house glass cutting machine — a tool that takes cutting parameters and outputs the machine code the CNC controller understands. That utility still generates glass cutting programs for Jayashree today.
Impact
- 10+ years as sole IT systems partner — ERP, HRMS, accounting, and more
- Attendance reconciliation reduced from 2 days to same-day
- Leave approval cycle reduced from 3–5 days to under 4 hours
- CNC code generation utility still in daily production use
- Every system built has been maintained and evolved by the same team
Stack
The CNC utility was never in any project scope. It came up in conversation. We built it anyway.
Renewable Energy
Industrial Solar Operator
The Problem
The operator had solar installations across multiple sites. Performance data existed only in local inverter memory with no centralized visibility. Maintenance was reactive — issues were discovered only when output dropped noticeably. There was no way to compare site performance or predict failures.
The System
We built the Solar Data Pull (SDP) platform: a combination of dedicated edge hardware (2G modem + Raspberry Pi per site) and a centralized data platform. Each device polls inverter data continuously, buffers locally during connectivity gaps, and syncs to the cloud. The platform aggregates real-time telemetry, computes performance ratios, and generates alerts for anomalies. Factory-style dashboards display via NovaView on site-based TV screens.
Impact
- Real-time asset-level performance visibility across all sites
- Predictive maintenance capability enabled from baseline data
- Maintenance response time reduced significantly
- Historical performance data available for every site since deployment

Financial / NBFC
District Cooperative Society
The Problem
The cooperative managed member savings, loan disbursal, interest calculations, and dividend payouts manually. Member records were in physical ledgers. Loan eligibility and EMI calculations were done in spreadsheets with no audit trail. Regulatory reporting required weeks of manual aggregation.
The System
We built DoozieDCB — a cooperative society management platform covering membership registration, loan origination and disbursal, EMI tracking, savings account management, and a member portal for self-service. All financial transactions have immutable audit logs. Regulatory reports are generated in the required formats.
Impact
- Member records digitized with full historical transaction history
- Loan processing cycle reduced from days to hours
- Regulatory reporting time reduced from weeks to same-day
- Members access their accounts and loan status via self-service portal
Stack
There are more stories. A lot more.
Some we'll tell when we meet. Some we're saving for the next generation.
Thirteen years of building in the real world — for real businesses, with real constraints — leaves you with more material than any case study page can hold. What you've read here is the part we can write down. The rest lives in the systems still running, the problems we solved at midnight, and the clients who called us back years later because nothing else worked like we did.
