AUVY carries it into engineering and production. A customer change after design release tends to reach production late, and then the extra cost stays with you. AUVY follows each order from release to acceptance, shows what a changed specification or a late supplier means for design, purchasing and delivery, and drafts the change request for the project manager to sign off. [← Use cases](https://www.auvy.ai/use-cases) For: Owners, project managers, design and production engineering, purchasing, service Machine building & engineer-to-order ## A week on a customer order.

It reads the exports, part lists and documents you give the project, and your ERP remains the system of record. ### What counts as a change? A relevant change in the sources you connected: a new requirement, a moved date, a changed quantity or revision. AUVY marks it where it arrived and shows what it affects. ### Can AUVY track supplier delivery dates? It reads the supplier confirmations you give the project, compares them with what you ordered and shows which steps depend on each date.
