High-mix work, nested cuts, weld schedules, and a whiteboard running the whole floor. CitrusWeb puts fabrication scheduling, job status, and quoting on one live screen, built by a team that runs its own software in production.
Sources: FMA Financial Ratios & Operational Benchmarking surveys via The Fabricator, 2019–2026. At a 6% margin, scrap alone eats a quarter of profit.
Cut, form, weld, finish: every work center on one board that updates as jobs move, instead of a whiteboard that is wrong by 10 a.m.
When quoting is tedious, work you could win never gets priced. AI-assisted quoting drafts the estimate and a human approves it.
Paper travelers go dark until they resurface. Digital job status means the front office stops interrupting the floor to ask.
Tariff-era steel and aluminum pricing changes under your feet. Live material cost tracking keeps quotes honest.

About half of manufacturers still plan production on spreadsheets or paper. It is free and familiar, which is exactly why the 5 to 10 percent of revenue lost to poor planning never shows up as a line item.
Accurate at 7 a.m., wrong by 10. A dry-erase board cannot flag a slipping job or tell the front office where a weldment is without someone walking over to look.
When quoting is tedious, work never gets priced: shops win only about one in four to one in three quotes, so most quoting labor already produces no revenue, and skipped RFQs are invisible lost sales.
Right for some, oversized for most sub-50-person fabricators. Per-seat pricing punishes putting the whole crew on the system, and the implementation project competes with running the floor.
