CourageMFG

ProductRun

The trackers your teams build, on the platform that runs everything else.

Tables, project plans, boards, calendars and forms that teams build themselves, in place of Smartsheet, Airtable and the trackers in Excel. Typed fields, linked records and formulas; Gantt plans whose later tasks move when one slips; approvals and automations. Tag a table to an area and it opens there too.

A new product launch plan as a Gantt chart: phases, gate reviews, dependencies and owners

Replaces

  • Smartsheet, Airtable and the trackers in Excel

A grid that works like Excel

Typed fields for text, numbers, currency, percentages, dates, choices, people, checkboxes and approvals, with formulas, lookups and rollups. Paste a block from Excel, fill down, group, filter and sort, and undo an edit.

  • Formulas in the same language as workbooks
  • An Excel or CSV file becomes a table, each column with the right type
  • Every edit in the record's history, before and after
A tooling tracker: dies, molds and fixtures with condition, location and shot counts

Boards from the same records

A kanban grouped by any choice, person or checkbox field, and a calendar by any date field, over the same records as the grid and the Gantt. Change a card and it changes everywhere the record shows.

Kaizen actions on a board by status, with owners and due dates

Approvals and automations

Comments with @mentions, an approver on any record, and automations: when a record is added or a field changes to a value, set a field, notify someone or ask for approval. What's waiting on you is on the Productivity home.

Supplier onboarding as a pipeline from requested to set up in Business Central

Forms, in the app or by link

Build a form from a table's fields and share it inside CourageMFG, or by a public link anyone can fill in without signing in. Every answer is a new record.

Start from a template, a file or a sentence

Templates for a project plan, a new product launch, a tooling tracker, kaizen actions, supplier onboarding, capital requests and a shift handover. Or ask Courage Chat for a tracker: it proposes the table and makes it when you confirm.

The Productivity home: ask Courage Chat, start from a template or import, and what's waiting on you

Where the work already is

A table tagged to quality or maintenance appears on that area's home and opens inside it. Who can see and edit it (everyone, or members only) follows the table everywhere: area homes, My work, links and Courage Chat.

The applications

For project managers, engineers, CI leads and anyone running a plan in a spreadsheet. Each one is a view of the same records; where Business Central already does the job, CourageMFG links straight to it.
