The books come first.
Every movement posts to the ledger. If a feature can't be accounted for properly, it doesn't ship.
About Built on a real
Built on a real
shop floor.
CoreWorks was not designed in a boardroom. It was built inside a working Canadian manufacturer to replace the spreadsheets, the QuickBooks workarounds and the whiteboards, and it runs that business every day.
Why it exists
Off-the-shelf ERPs didn't fit a mid-sized Canadian manufacturer.
Big ERPs cost too much and take a year to roll out. Small-business accounting tools stop at the books. Neither handles a shop that buys in US dollars, builds in Canada, ships across provinces and still has to close the month cleanly.
So we built one. CoreWorks started in April 2026, and every module has been shaped by real purchase orders, real builds and real month-ends, with the accountant reviewing the books along the way.
Now we are opening it up to other manufacturers and distributors who need the same thing.
How we build
What we care about.
Canada is the default.
CAD, Bank of Canada rates, GST/HST and PST, CCA, GIFI and Canadian payroll from day one.
Built with the people who use it.
Purchasing, the shop floor and the accountant shape each screen, not a feature checklist.
No lock-in on where it runs.
Cloud, desktop or your own server, and you can change your mind later.
