ZLC Software: Facility Room, Resource, and People Scheduling and Management Systems

This system is designed to automate the paint mixing shop of a painting contractor; to replace cumbersome manual tracking of the continuously growing numbers of paint formulations and re-formulations used over time -- and to safeguard that valuable information!

Not only does it make it simple to locate any Formula ever used; it also makes the whole body of important information easily accessible to more people. And it makes it easy to make copies for keeping the information backed up and safe.

Our system knows the precise details of arriving at the end-result (each separate addition, for each session or trial; in sequence with notes on each). It also knows much more about each and every formula: about the Job, Customer, and Manufacturer; the Dates created, last-used, and of any change; plus several user-defined categories.

You can print any stored Formula in several ways, and as TRIAL or FINAL. Once you print a FINAL, you must re-formulate to make any changes.

If you have a cumbersome manual system, if you have a hard time locating previous formulations (or only one person can find it), of if you just want a safer, better way to keep this information, we have designed the system for you.
