What Gantway takes over in cabinetmaking and manufacturing
In a manufacturer's workshop, no piece is calculated like the other. Anyone who doesn't keep line-item-level costing is calculating on hope — and only discovers the mistake on the invoice.
All pieces in progress at a glance
The digital desk shows every order with status, station and next step — no notes, no shouted questions. What needs to be delivered today is immediately visible.

All pieces in progress at a glance
Spot bottlenecks before the deadline slips
The conflict engine reports automatically when a station is overloaded or two pieces claim the same qualification at the same time. You react in advance — not after delivery.
- Overloaded station reported automatically
- Qualification claimed twice detected
- React in advance, not after delivery

Quotes with material variants
Ash or smoked oak? Stainless steel or brass? With the four line-item types and the alternatives function, you put both variants into the quote. The customer chooses — the costing adjusts automatically.
- Four line-item types and alternatives function
- Both material variants in the same quote
- Costing adjusts to the customer's choice

Costing per line item instead of per order
Every line item — material, hour, special purchase, subcontracted service — has its own cost line. The margin panel shows in real time whether you are still on track. If the customer changes something, you see the margin impact immediately.

Plan qualifications in good time
Gantway knows your qualification catalog: who can do marquetry, who upholsters, who veneers. Tasks are only assigned to employees who can carry them out — and bottlenecks become visible before they block the order.

Plan qualifications in good time
Materials per task in view
Every task carries its material: which veneer, which quantity, which supplier. The material log records every inventory movement as its own entry, and the purchasing list shows in good time what is still missing.
- Veneer, quantity and supplier per task
- Material log for every inventory movement

Is Gantway a fit for your business?
Gantway makes particular sense if …
- You build one-offs, small batches and custom projects — each with its own costing.
- Several pieces run in parallel through woodworking, staining, upholstery, finishing and assembly.
- Lead time per piece runs to several weeks.
- Every order is one of a kind with its own station sequence and its own delivery date.
- Without a planning tool, control rests solely with the owner.
Frequently asked questions
Which software fits a manufacturer doing one-offs and small batches?
Gantway plans order-driven: every piece has its own flow of tasks with dependencies, capacity and materials. One-offs and small batches sit on the same planning surface — with utilization and conflicts at a glance.
How do I see whether an order paid off in the end?
With pre- and post-costing: you calculate labor, materials and machine costs per order and line item. As soon as the workshop gets to work, Gantway compares plan and actual — to the hour and the euro, without Excel rework.
Pre- and post-costing in detail →Can we record who is trained on the CNC?
Yes. Qualifications live in each employee’s personnel record — planning sees who can do what and who is available when. A missing qualification shows up during planning, not at the machine.
Employees & qualifications in detail →What does Gantway cost for a manufacturer?
Three plans based on active accounts; employees who are only scheduled are free. You can test for 14 days, free and without a credit card.
See pricing →Is Gantway GDPR-compliant?
Yes. Data is stored on servers in Germany, a data processing agreement is standard. Access is governed by roles with individual permissions, and on the Premium plan an audit log records who made key changes — entries no one in your business can alter afterwards.

If you build one-offs and small batches for demanding customers, you deserve a planning tool that understands the way you work — not one designed for mass production. Gantway is explained in a 30-minute demo.
