Question 1

What is ICS Ops?

Accepted Answer

ICS Ops is an operations management platform for businesses that manage parts, people, and equipment. It brings inventory, orders, jobs, invoicing, manufacturing, timesheets, and equipment tracking into one place - so you can stop juggling spreadsheets and disconnected tools.

Question 2

How much can ICS Ops handle?

Accepted Answer

ICS Ops runs on enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure that scales automatically. The platform is built to handle 50,000+ orders per month, 500,000+ parts, and thousands of users. If you ever need more, we can increase capacity on demand without downtime.

Question 3

Is my data secure?

Accepted Answer

Your data is completely isolated from other businesses using row-level security, with role-based permissions and a full audit trail of every change. Everything is encrypted at rest and in transit with 256-bit encryption. Backups are automated and encrypted.

Question 4

Can I generate invoices and quotes as PDFs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. ICS Ops generates professional branded PDFs for invoices, quotes, credit notes, purchase orders, and delivery notes - all with your company branding, ready to send in one click.

Question 5

Does it work on mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes. ICS Ops works on any device with a browser - desktop, tablet, or phone. No app to install, no software to update. Your team can access everything from the office or the field.

Question 6

Does ICS Ops support manufacturing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The manufacturing module includes work centres, routings, work orders, bills of materials (BOM) with versioning, master production scheduling, quality control, lot and serial tracking, and engineering change notices. You can plan production runs, track progress, and manage quality - all integrated with your inventory and orders.

Question 7

What about GDPR and compliance?

Accepted Answer

ICS Ops includes a full compliance documentation suite with policies, procedures, risk registers, and assessment templates. GDPR data subject rights are built in - data export, anonymisation, and request tracking. Every change across the platform is recorded in the audit trail.

Question 8

Can our customers or suppliers access the system?

Accepted Answer

Yes. External portals let your customers and suppliers log in to view their orders, invoices, and documents without needing access to your full platform. Portal users get their own accounts with limited, controlled visibility.

Question 9

Do I need to use every module?

Accepted Answer

No. ICS Ops is fully modular. You pick the modules you need - inventory, orders, jobs, manufacturing, invoicing, and more - and only pay for what you use. You can add or remove modules at any time as your business evolves.
