Where Footwear Manufacturers Lose Time & Pairs
Real bottlenecks. Real costs. Real fixes.
These are the patterns Clicarity helps businesses identify and fix within the first few weeks.
Size Ratio Error
Wrong size ratio dispatched — buyer deducted ₹1.8L from payment
A footwear exporter dispatched an order with incorrect size ratio — sizes 7 and 8 were swapped in packing. Buyer deducted ₹1.8L for return logistics and repacking. With Clicarity, packing includes a size-wise count confirmation stage. Size ratio errors: eliminated.
₹1.8L deduction prevented — size confirmation enforced at packing
Stitching Bottleneck
One stitching operation creating 2-day delay on every style
Tracking pairs completed per stitching operation showed one operation — waist closing — was creating 2.1 days of delay per size run. It was being done by one operator with a machine timing issue. Machine repaired. Delay eliminated.
2-day stitching delay eliminated — bottleneck operation identified
Component Shortage
Outsole colour variation discovered at lasting — 240 pairs held
Outsoles arrived from supplier with a colour variation that was only discovered when lasting started. 240 pairs held while replacement outsoles were sourced — 6-day delay. With Clicarity, incoming inspection is a mandatory stage. Colour issues caught at receipt, not at lasting.
6-day delay prevented — incoming inspection made mandatory
Real Printing Business. Real Results.
""Wrong size ratios were dispatched twice in one month. No one caught it before packing. Now every size is counted at packing and reconciled against the order. No more short shipments.""

Questions from footwear businesses
How does Clicarity work for a printing business specifically?
Clicarity is configured around your specific print workflow — pre-press, printing, finishing, dispatch — in your terminology. Every job gets a unique ID and moves through your defined stages. You see live status, timestamps, and bottleneck alerts at every stage. The Clicarity team builds everything for you. You go live in 5 days.
Does it work for both offset and digital printing?
Yes. Clicarity works for any print process — offset, digital, wide format, screen printing, or a combination. The stages are configured around your actual workflow. If offset jobs go through plate making and digital jobs skip that stage, both can be tracked correctly under the same system.
Can it track material wastage at each stage?
Yes — with the Multi Licence. At every stage, your team logs quantity in and quantity out. Clicarity calculates the loss automatically. You see wastage by stage, by job, live — not at month-end when nothing can be done about it.
Will my press operators actually use it?
Yes. The update screen has two fields — Job ID and status. Under a minute. No training needed. GP Offset's entire team was using it from day one, including floor workers who had never used a software system before.
See every order. Every size. Before the shipment goes short.
