Fabritec New Release – 4\6\2026

Customer control, site execution visibility, configurable dashboards, reporting expansion, and administrative governance improvements
This release introduces major improvements across Fabritec’s execution layer, focused on strengthening customer data control, extending project visibility to site erection, improving audit governance, and giving teams more flexible dashboard and reporting tools.
These updates help teams manage customer information, track the full lifecycle from production to erection, review user activity, customize operational dashboards, and control key administrative settings with stronger structure and traceability.

New Features#

1. Customers Module – Centralized Customer Management Workspace#

Fabritec now introduces a dedicated Customers module, providing a centralized workspace for managing customer profiles, related projects, contacts, documents, notes, and customer-linked tasks.
Instead of keeping customer information across spreadsheets, emails, folders, or disconnected records, teams can now manage customer data directly inside Fabritec and connect it with project activity, production volume, task follow-up, and account-level visibility.

2. Erection – Site Installation Tracking from Delivery to Completion#

This extends Fabritec’s execution visibility beyond factory production and shipping, giving project teams a connected view of what has been produced, shipped, delivered, and erected.
image.png

What’s New#

A new Erection page is available inside each project:
Projects → Select Project → Erection
The Erection feature includes:
Project-level activation using Include erection during project creation
Erection tracking lifecycle:
Production
Shipping Yard

Important Governance Rule#

Erection must be activated when creating the project.
Once Include erection is enabled and the project is created, it cannot be deactivated later. This ensures that site installation tracking remains consistent throughout the project lifecycle.

Maintains full traceability across production, shipping, delivery, and erection

3. System Logs – Application Audit Trail and User Activity Visibility#

Fabritec now introduces a dedicated Logs page under User Management, enabling authorized users to review audit events and user activity across the application.
This feature helps administrators understand who performed an action, when it happened, which IP address was used, and whether the action was completed successfully or resulted in an error.

4. Home & Project Overview Widgets#

Fabritec now enhances both the Home page and the Project Overview page with configurable widget-based dashboards, giving users more control over what they monitor, how they review operational data, and how they save dashboard layouts for different roles and workflows.
With this update, Fabritec now provides around 50 operational widgets across the Home and Project Overview dashboards, covering production, projects, tasks, quality control, rework, shipping, erection, phases, buildings, KPIs, and charts.
The Home page is the main operational dashboard for cross-project visibility. It helps users monitor factory activity, recent projects, assigned tasks, task status, production indicators, and operational performance across all projects or a selected project.
The Project Overview page provides a focused dashboard for one selected project. It helps project managers and operational teams review project-specific progress, production status, shipping progress, erection progress, backlog, quality control, rework, phases, buildings, tasks, and dispatch activity.
Together, these updates give teams flexible visibility at two levels:
Home page for overall factory and cross-project monitoring
Project Overview page for detailed project execution monitoring
