Stop eating the cost of jobs that run blind.
Connect sales, components, production and finished goods. Manage kitting, repackaging, stock movement and orders — without relying on spreadsheets.
Jobs that run on guesswork and spreadsheets.
Light manufacturing and assembly means juggling components, kitting, production and finished goods all at once. When a BOM lives in a spreadsheet or stock isn’t tracked properly, jobs stall, components go missing mid-run, and nobody’s sure what’s actually ready to sell.
-
BOMs and kitting managed in spreadsheets
Bills of materials, kit components and unit-of-measure conversions tracked manually — easy to get wrong, hard to keep current.
-
Components going missing mid-job
A job starts, then stalls because a component wasn't where it was supposed to be — nobody had visibility until it was too late.
-
No real view of what's ready to sell
Finished goods, work-in-progress and raw components all blur together, so it's hard to know what can actually go out the door.
-
Production disconnected from purchasing
Production consumes components, but purchasing doesn't find out until stock runs out — leading to delays and rushed reorders.
From components to finished goods, connected
Tall Emu connects your bill of materials, kitting, production tracking, purchasing and stock — so you always know what’s available, what’s in progress, and what’s ready to sell.
Right components. Right build. Right stock — every time.

Xero / MYOB
Built for components, kitting and light production
The features manufacturers and assemblers need to run jobs without the guesswork.
Bill of materials (BOM) management
Build and maintain BOMs for every product — components, quantities and unit of measure all in one record.
Kitting & assembly
Turn components into sellable kits or assemblies, with stock automatically adjusted as you build.
Unit of measure conversions
Buy in bulk, build in units, sell in cartons — Tall Emu handles the conversions so nothing gets miscounted.
Production tracking
See what's in progress, what's consuming components, and what's ready to move to finished goods.
Stock adjustments
Adjust stock as components are consumed and finished goods are produced — no manual reconciling after the fact.
Finished goods inventory
Real-time visibility over what's actually ready to sell, separate from work-in-progress and raw components.
Purchase orders
Replenish components based on what production actually needs — raised directly from stock levels or job demand.
Sales orders & quoting
Quote and sell finished goods and kits without re-entering anything that's already in the system.
Xero and MYOB integration
Two-way sync so invoices, payments and financial data flow automatically — no manual reconciling.
Production that doesn't stall because someone forgot to check stock.
Jobs that run blind on components don’t just cost time — they cost the jobs themselves.
-
The waste
Spreadsheet-managed BOMs that fall out of date. Components that go missing mid-job because nobody had visibility. Stock adjustments made after the damage is already done.
-
The save
Production that doesn't stall because someone forgot to check stock. BOMs and kitting that are accurate every time. A clear view of what's ready to sell, right now.
The ERP for growing businesses
If you’ve outgrown Xero and spreadsheets but don’t need the cost and complexity of a full ERP — Tall Emu is built for exactly that gap.
vs Xero / MYOB add-ons
Accounting software handles the books. Tall Emu handles BOMs, kitting, production tracking, stock and finished goods — everything that happens before the invoice.
vs CRM-only tools
Dedicated MRP systems are built for heavy manufacturing — complex routing, multi-level BOMs, shop floor scheduling. Tall Emu gives growing assemblers the kitting, BOM and production tracking they actually need, without the complexity of a full MRP rollout.
vs full ERP
NetSuite and SAP are built for enterprise. Tall Emu gives growing Australian manufacturers and assemblers the same operational control — without the cost or the six-month implementation.
