EasyWork Solutions builds websites, inventory systems and custom ERP for businesses in Rajkot. As a Gujarat-based team we already work daily with the job-work model that dominates Rajkot's engineering, casting and auto-components sector — the part that generic software consistently gets wrong.
In short
EasyWork Solutions serves Rajkot from its Surat office, about four hours away, building inventory systems, job-work ERP and export-focused websites for the city's engineering, casting, auto-components and submersible pump businesses. Its main differentiator in this market is modelling job work correctly — challan out, expected return, actual return, process loss, rejection and rework — which generic inventory software does not.

Why job work breaks standard inventory software
In a job-work model your material leaves your premises, gets processed by someone else, and comes back changed — different weight, different form, sometimes different quantity after rejection. Standard inventory software treats material leaving as a sale or a write-off, because that is what it was designed for.
The result is stock figures nobody trusts, so the real numbers live in a register and the software becomes a compliance formality. Modelling job work properly — challans out, expected return, actual return, rejection and rework — is the difference between a system people use and one they work around.
The reconciliation logic is where the detail lives. Material sent for machining comes back lighter by design, and the acceptable loss depends on the operation and the material. Material sent for plating comes back heavier. A rejection may be the job worker's fault or a defect in what you sent, and who bears the cost depends on which. If the software cannot express those distinctions, the rate calculation gets done manually and the system has failed at its main job.
Multiple vendors, partial returns and pending tracking
The second thing generic software gets wrong is that Rajkot firms rarely deal with one job worker at a time. The same batch may be split across three vendors by capacity and rate, returned in instalments, and re-sent for a second operation before the first is fully reconciled.
What operations staff actually need from a system is a single honest answer to "what is pending with whom, how old is it, and what is it worth". That question is difficult to answer from a register and trivial to answer from a properly modelled system, which is why vendor-wise pending tracking is usually the feature that convinces people the software was worth buying.
It also has a direct commercial effect. Material sitting with a job worker for four months is working capital nobody is looking at. Firms that get visibility of that number for the first time often recover the cost of the system from that alone.
Selling to buyers who will never visit
Rajkot exports heavily, and an increasing share of first contact with an overseas buyer happens through search rather than a trade fair. That makes the website a credibility document: clear product specifications, certifications, plant capability and a contact route that works from a different timezone.
Most engineering websites here fail that test — a photo gallery, a vague company profile, and no specifications a serious buyer could evaluate. Fixing it is unglamorous and one of the highest-return things an exporting business can do.
The specifics matter more than the design. A buyer sourcing castings wants material grades, tolerance capability, machining facilities, testing equipment and monthly capacity. A buyer sourcing pumps wants head and discharge curves, power ratings and certifications. Publishing that turns your site into something a technical buyer can shortlist from, which is the only thing that generates an enquiry worth having.
Costing that reflects how you actually price
Engineering firms in Rajkot rarely price from a clean bill of materials. The number is built from material weight at today's rate, plus job-work operations at agreed per-piece or per-kilo rates, plus scrap recovery credited back, plus a margin that varies by customer and order size.
Software that only supports a fixed BOM cannot represent that, so quotations continue to be prepared in Excel by the one person who understands the formula. That is a genuine business risk as well as an inefficiency.
Modelling it properly means treating rates as time-varying inputs, treating scrap as a recoverable output rather than a loss, and letting an operation sequence carry its own costing. It is not complicated engineering, but it has to be designed deliberately — and it is the single most common thing we are asked to fix in a system somebody else built.
Working with a team four hours away
Rajkot is close enough to Surat that on-site work is genuinely practical, and we treat discovery and user training as in-person activities for Gujarat clients rather than billable extras. For a shop-floor system this is not a nicety: you cannot design a challan flow correctly without watching material physically leave the premises.
Day-to-day development then runs remotely against a staging URL you can open at any time. That combination — in-person where it changes the outcome, remote where it does not — is what keeps the cost sensible without losing the accuracy that comes from being in the room.
It also means we already speak the vocabulary. Challan, job work, process loss, rejection, rework, scrap recovery: these are not terms we have to have explained, which removes the first two weeks of every project where a distant vendor learns the trade at your expense.
Budgeting
What drives the cost of a Rajkot project
We do not publish a price list, because a number given before understanding the work is a guess someone pays for later. These are the factors that actually move the figure — worth knowing before you compare quotes.
How many operations a part goes through
A single machining step is simple. A part that goes out for casting, returns, goes out for machining, returns, then goes out for plating carries a routing and reconciliation model that is proportionally more work to build.
Whether costing has to be built in
Stock tracking alone is one scope. Adding rate-based costing with scrap recovery and customer-specific margins is a second, and it is the part most often underestimated.
Number of job-work vendors and their variation
A handful of vendors on consistent terms is straightforward. Dozens of vendors on differing rate structures, tolerances and payment terms means more configuration and more testing.
Whether the website needs to sell technically
A company profile site is quick. A specification-led export catalogue with product data, filters and technical documents is a bigger build and a much better commercial investment for an exporter.
Data migration from registers and Excel
Opening balances, pending job work and party ledgers have to be brought across accurately, and reconciling that opening position is often the most time-consuming part of go-live.

Custom Software Development
Custom software development is the practice of building an application specifically for one organisation, rather than buying a general-purpose product. It is chosen when a business process is a competitive advantage, is unusual enough that packaged software cannot model it, or when licence costs for off-the-shelf tools exceed the cost of ownership.

Web development is the process of designing, building, and maintaining the websites and web applications that run in a browser. It covers the visible interface (front end), the server logic and database behind it (back end), and the hosting, security, and performance work that keeps it online.

Search engine optimisation (SEO) is the work of making a website rank in traditional search results. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), sometimes called AEO or LLM SEO, is the newer discipline of making a site the source that AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Perplexity, and Copilot quote when they answer a question. The two overlap heavily but are not identical.

How a Rajkot project runs
Walk the material flow on site
We come to Rajkot and follow material physically — issue, challan out, return, inspection, rework, scrap. Challan flows designed from a phone call are wrong in ways that only appear after go-live.
Model job work and reconciliation first
Before any screen is designed we settle how material states, tolerances, rejection and rework are represented. Everything else in the system depends on getting this right.
Agree the costing rules explicitly
We write down how a quotation is actually built today, including the parts that live in one person's Excel file, and design costing to match rather than imposing a textbook BOM model.
Build the pending-tracking view early
Vendor-wise pending material is the report that earns daily use, so we get it in front of your staff early and adjust it against how they actually work.
Migrate opening balances carefully
Pending job work, stock and party ledgers are reconciled against your registers before go-live. This is the step that determines whether people trust the system in week one.
Train on site, then hand over
Training happens in your office on your data. Source code, design files and credentials transfer on final payment, with documentation good enough for another team to continue.
What you get on every project
- A written scope with fixed milestones before any development starts — no open-ended hourly billing.
- A staging URL you can check at any time, so progress is visible rather than reported.
- One named point of contact, not a ticket queue.
- Full source code, design files and hosting credentials transferred to you on final payment.
- No lock-in: nothing we build depends on us continuing to host or maintain it.
Before you choose
How to evaluate a software company in Rajkot
These are the questions worth asking any vendor bidding for your work, ourselves included. A firm that answers them directly is telling you more than a client logo wall does.
- Ask the vendor to explain, unprompted, how their system handles material that comes back lighter than it went out. The answer tells you immediately whether they have built for job work.
- Ask to see vendor-wise pending job work in a demo. It is the report your operations staff will use daily, and a surprising number of systems cannot produce it.
- Ask how rates are handled when material prices move. If rates are hard-coded rather than dated, your historical costing will be wrong within a quarter.
- For a website, ask what technical specifications will actually appear on product pages. A gallery of plant photos does not help a buyer shortlist you.
- Ask for a written fixed scope with milestones, and confirm that source code and hosting credentials transfer to you on final payment.
FAQ
Rajkot questions
Do you understand job-work based manufacturing?
Yes — it is standard across Gujarat manufacturing and we have built for it repeatedly. Challan issue and return, material reconciliation including process loss, rejection and rework handling, and vendor-wise pending tracking are all requirements we expect rather than discover late.
Can you build a website that brings export enquiries?
A website is one part of it. We build the site to be found and to convert — proper product specification pages, technical SEO, fast loading on international connections, and enquiry routing that works across timezones. Enquiry volume also depends on search demand and competition, which we assess before promising anything.
Do you visit Rajkot for meetings?
Yes. Rajkot is about four hours from our Surat office, so on-site discovery and training sessions are entirely practical and we treat them as standard for Gujarat clients.
Can the system handle material that comes back at a different weight?
Yes, and it should. We model expected versus actual return with an operation-specific tolerance, so machining loss, plating gain and genuine shortfall are distinguishable rather than all appearing as a discrepancy. Rate calculation for the job worker then runs off whichever quantity you have agreed with them.
Will it work if we split one batch across several job workers?
Yes. Batches can be split across vendors, returned in instalments and re-sent for a subsequent operation, with pending quantities tracked vendor-wise and aged. That situation is the norm in Rajkot rather than an edge case, so it is designed in rather than bolted on.
Can you handle scrap recovery in costing?
Yes. Scrap is treated as a recoverable output credited back against the job rather than as a write-off, because that is how your quotations are actually built. Rates are dated so historical costing stays accurate when material prices move.
How long does an inventory and job-work system take?
A focused system covering stock, challans and vendor-wise pending is typically 8 to 10 weeks including data migration and on-site training. Adding full costing and quotation generation usually extends that by a further four to six weeks, and we would normally deliver it as a second phase.
We are a small unit. Is custom software worth it for us?
Sometimes not, and we will say so. If your pain is confined to one thing — pending job work, or quotations — a single focused module is usually the right answer rather than a full system. Selling a small unit an ERP it will use a fifth of is how this market produces expensive shelfware.
