Subcontract manufacturing

# Maximise throughput. Minimise idle time.

Turn raw data into higher output. Identify your bottlenecks and speed up cycle times to get more out of your factory, without adding headcount, paying for overtime, or purchasing new equipment.

Production monitoring

## See exactly where you’re losing time.

TrackMyMachines provides second-by-second visibility into your production floor. Understand exactly when and why machines are stopped, and turn that lost time into productive hours.

[See all features](https://trackmymachines.com/pricing?hsLang=en)

See production reality

The Operations timeline lets you scroll through production data to identify where machines should have been running.

![The Operations timeline: a double day shift on five turning machines, with cycles, parts, setups, breaks and downtime reasons along each row](https://trackmymachines.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Product%20screenshots/2026-10-15%20final/Web/tmm-timeline-shift-day-no-nav.jpg?width=3840&height=2400&name=tmm-timeline-shift-day-no-nav.jpg)

See your real utilisation

Think your workshop is maximising machine time? We show you how much of it your machines really spend running.

Granular reporting

See if night shift and overtime are really paying the bills, or costing you more money.

![The shop floor dashboard: utilisation by day, uptime against downtime over time and machines ranked by utilisation](https://trackmymachines.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Product%20screenshots/2026-10-15%20final/Web/tmm-dashboard-shop-floor-no-nav.jpg?width=3840&height=2400&name=tmm-dashboard-shop-floor-no-nav.jpg)

Downtime tracking

Automatically prompt operators to log stoppage reasons so you always know exactly why production paused.

Accurate job costing

## Quote with certainty. Deliver with proof.

Never under-price a complex job again. Capture actual per-component times and live machine utilisation to bid confidently and keep your prime contractors happy.

> “In the first week we’ve measured cycle times for the first time on components we’ve been making for 50 years.”

Jim Young Production Manager, Irco Redditch
