Manufacturing project management Software that Accelerates NPI and CapEx
Cora's manufacturing project management software addresses specific pain points around value stream management, supply chain disruption, and resource management. The system is built for complex manufacturing environments where project managers need real-time visibility into manufacturing projects.
Project Management Software for Manufacturing
Cora provides a comprehensive solution for manufacturing project management in complex and industrial environments, ensuring seamless project execution, financial oversight, and strategic decision-making for engineer-to-order and large-scale production environments.
Estimates and Optimizing Margins Work Together in One System
Accurately estimate manufacturing project costs and margins by linking financial codes to labor, materials, and subcontractor costs. The system establishes profitability targets early, giving transparency across disciplines and preventing margin erosion.
Capture lessons learned to refine future estimates and optimize processes. Task management features let teams track work against these estimates throughout the manufacturing project lifecycle.
Forecasting & Estimate to Completion Give Project Managers Real-time Data
Gain real-time visibility into project financials from initial estimates to final completion. Track material, labor, and subcontractor costs with early warning indicators for budget overruns.
The system provides project managers with an intuitive interface to continuously measure cost performance against forecasts. This workflow improves decision-making and financial predictability across manufacturing projects.
Cashflow Management and Working Capital Tools Improve the Way Projects get Funded
Align payments with project milestones to maintain positive cash flow. Prevent project materials from sitting unpaid at client sites through Supply Chain Sync with Schedule and avoid subcontractor invoicing mismatches.
Integrate with ERP systems to structure billing that reflects work completed. This work management approach optimizes working capital across manufacturing environments.
Change Control Management Streamlines the Way Modifications get Approved
Streamline change request approvals in engineer-to-order project management with full audit trails. The system reduces unauthorized scope creep by enforcing a controlled process for all modifications.
Improve traceability across manufacturing projects so engineers can efficiently document, approve, and bill for all changes. Workflow automation handles routing and notifications automatically.
Payment Schedules and Invoicing Work with Existing Finance Systems
Enhance cash flow management by providing finance teams with full visibility into invoicing schedules and project progress. Ensure all stakeholders understand when invoices can be sent, align with purchase orders, and eliminate delays caused by misaligned financial workflows, reducing the administrative burden on project teams.
Project Documentation and Transmittals Create a Single System of Record
Ensure version control and full traceability for project documentation through transmittals and submittals. Centralized storage eliminates lost files, and automated workflows provide a clear audit trail. Engineers can markup drawings digitally, ensuring accurate communication of changes and compliance with contract and regulatory requirements.
How Cora help Manufacturing Teams Work Smarter
Hear from Jeff Hopkins, Vice President, Separation Leader at Honeywell about how Cora PPM has empowered Honeywell leaders with predictive analytics and real-time project visibility, enabling proactive risk mitigation and significantly improved cash flow.
Easily track labor hours, subcontractor contributions, and work completion rates. Ensure that timesheets and work logs are updated in real time, allowing for accurate cost tracking and timely invoicing. This visibility prevents billing disputes and supports financial governance across complex manufacturing project management processes. Subcontractor portals allow for managed two-way collaboration.
Streamline Workflow with Mobile
The Cora Mobile App for Android and iOS enables teams to access, upload, and mark up documents and photos anytime. Easily annotate punch lists and checklists on the factory floor or on the move. Improve invoicing accuracy and gain early warnings of potential issues.
Bill of Materials (BOM)
The Bill of Materials (BoM) functionality provides a centralized source for managing parts, assemblies, and materials required for production. Track costs, ensure accurate material planning, and support seamless coordination of engineer-to-order project management processes, optimizing efficiency and cost control across manufacturing operations.

Is your Portfolio Risk Strategy Keeping Pace with AI?
Gartner® latest research looks at how AI is reshaping the way organizations sense, forecast and respond to portfolio risk — shifting teams from reactive reporting to earlier, more confident decisions.
“Modern portfolio risk can no longer be effectively managed through periodic reviews and static risk registers.”
"We now have consistency
– all of our project plans on
the one platform. We’re able
to manage risks and issues
in a standard convention.
We’re now able to do RAGs
and monthly reports with a
consistent method. We’ve
got financials that are really
valuable to us. It’s great
having that understanding.
I love how Cora allows you
to structure things around
your portfolio, program
and projects. That’s been
fundamental for us."
Steven Bell , Head of Project Management, Camlin Technologies
"The key benefits for us with
Cora is visibility, our ability
to understand who’s working
on what, and accountability.
We know who the decision
makers are in our projects
now. Before it was a bit
vague. It takes the surprise
out of everything. Now we’re
able to better quantify
risk, knowing what we can
do about a risk ahead of
time if it does happen.
That visibility for us has
been amazing."
LeAnn Clements , Sr. Director of Strategy Implementation, Dawn Foods
"One of the things Honeywell
has done very, very well
is managing pricing.
Because we invested in a
digital tool with Cora to
help us manage pricing,
we’ve been better than
many of our competitors in
managing inflation, as we
can look at optimizing the
performance of projects,
through traditional earned
value metrics."
Jeff Hopkins , Vice President GPMO and IGS PMO, Honeywell
Unified Platform for all Capital Project Data
Rochelle Andrews, Global PMO at Lubrizol, shares how Cora PPM has transformed project visibility and reporting across the organization. By bringing over 8,000 projects into a single, centralized platform, Cora provides greater transparency, improved decision-making, and clear insight into project spend.
