Keep production aligned
with every supply chain update
PO-Relay helps production teams stay aligned with every supply chain update by automatically updating dashboards as new information comes in.
A system built to keep production and supply chain on the same page
The floor works from live updates, not outdated tables. No more pinging the supply chain team to ask where a part is.
Parts dashboard
LiveParts Dashboard
Live status for every inbound part. Updates flow in as supplier emails land.
The problems production faces
- Having to ping the supply chain team every time production needs an update.
- Dashboards and spreadsheets go out of date before anyone reads them.
- Production finds out a part is late the day the line runs short.
- No clear picture of what is actually inbound this week.
“Wait, where's that part?”
“Did you reach out yet?”
To-do
- call Acme re: 412345
- chase shipment status
- update status sheet
- 3rd shift: urgent
- release hold notice?

How it helps production
Three jobs that used to depend on catching the buyer, now running in the background.
Part tracker
| PO | Supplier | Due | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 499012 | Helix Mfg | Apr 25 | On track |
| 499014 | Acme Metals | Apr 21 | Quality issue |
| 499015 | Northridge Tool | May 02 | Shipping delay |
| 499011 | Coastal Steel | Apr 18 | PO cancelled |
Supplier updates land on the dashboard
The moment a supplier email confirms a part, moves a date, or raises a quality issue, the dashboard reflects it. No forwarding, no relay, no lag between the inbox and the floor.
Tasks

One live view the whole team reads from
Planners, supervisors, and leads read from the same parts dashboard the buyer acts on. Everyone sees the same state of every inbound line at the same time.

Me, Jim at Acme Metals
Hi Jim,
Just circling back on PO 412345. We had Thursday as the ship date but haven't heard an update. Could you confirm you're still on track, or let me know if anything's shifted?
Thanks,
Sarah
The floor answers itself on where parts are
Anyone on the team can ask the chat assistant and get current stage, expected date, last supplier update, and active flags in one reply. No interruption to the buyer.
