MRP Built for Steel Fabricators
Manage beams, columns, trusses, and complex assemblies from detailing through erection. FabFlow handles multi-ton projects the way your shop actually builds them.

Every feature is designed around how structural steel shops estimate, fabricate, coat, and ship.
Member-Level Job Tracking
Track every beam, column, brace, and gusset plate individually through fabrication. Know exactly which members are cut, welded, coated, and ready to ship.
Piece Mark & Sequence Management
Organize work by piece marks, shipping sequences, and erection phases. Your shop floor always knows what to build next — and what ships together.
Beam Line & CNC Integration
Schedule beam drill lines, angle lines, and plate processing machines with real-time visibility. Minimize setups by grouping like sections and operations.
Weld Procedure Tracking
Assign WPS specifications to every joint. Track welder qualifications, inspection hold points, and NDE requirements — CWB and AWS compliant out of the box.
Coatings & Fireproofing
Manage multi-coat systems: primer, intumescent fireproofing, and topcoat. Track DFT measurements, cure windows, and coating batch traceability per member.
Load-Out & Erection Sequencing
Plan truck loads by erection sequence. Generate shipping lists, bolt lists, and field manifests so nothing gets left behind — and the ironworkers get what they need, when they need it.
Ton- & Hour-Based Costing
Cost jobs by the ton, by the hour, or by the member. Track labor, material, coating, and freight in real time — know your margin on every structural project before it leaves the yard.
FabFlow vs. the Alternatives
Most structural shops run on spreadsheets, disconnected software, and tribal knowledge. Here's how FabFlow stacks up.

This Software Runs Our Own Shop
FabFlow is built and used every day inside a working fabrication shop — a CWB-certified shop in Ontario, Canada. Everything in it was built because our own shop floor needed it.
