South India
Plant floors, ports, and the paperwork between them.
Custom ERP and platform engineering for automotive and engineering manufacturers in Chennai — where the system has to agree with what is happening on the line.
The short answer
Brihat Infotech serves Chennai remotely from offices in Noida and Ranchi, with on-site discovery and plant visits. The concentration here is automotive and engineering manufacturing, where the recurring failure is an ERP that describes a process the shop floor stopped following two years ago.
We do not have an office in Chennai.
Remote-first from Noida and Ranchi. Plant work means scheduled on-site phases — discovery on the shop floor, and someone present for the cutover of each unit rather than a big-bang go-live.
What makes Chennai different.
Chennai's manufacturing belt — Sriperumbudur, Oragadam, Ambattur — is the densest automotive and ancillary cluster in the country, and it sits next to a major port. The engineering problem that produces is specific: material moves faster than the system tracking it, so operators keep a parallel record and the ERP slowly becomes fiction. Fixing that is a floor problem before it is a software problem, which is why discovery here means standing on the line.
Sectors
Where the work concentrates in Chennai.
Regulation
What actually shapes a build in Tamil Nadu.
Not a compliance checklist — the specific rules that decide architecture, retention and reporting before a requirement is written.
E-way bills and place of supply
Interstate movement out of Tamil Nadu generates e-way bills that must reconcile with dispatch and invoicing. Where they do not, the mismatch surfaces at assessment rather than at dispatch.
Factories Act and TNPCB
Statutory registers, shift records and pollution-board returns that most plants still assemble by hand from systems that hold the underlying data.
Extended Producer Responsibility
EPR obligations require material and volume evidence traceable back through production records.
Customs and port documentation
For export-oriented units, shipping-bill and customs data reconciling against dispatch and finance — three systems, one truth, usually manual.
What is already in the building.
Anything new has to talk to these, and usually cannot replace them on day one.
- SAP ECC with heavy customisation
- MES and shop-floor terminals
- AS/400 back ends
- Tally in the ancillary tier

Services
What we are asked for most in Chennai.
Before you ask
Questions about working with us in Chennai.
Do you have an office in Chennai?
No. Offices are in Noida and Ranchi. Plant engagements carry scheduled on-site phases, including presence at each unit's cutover.
Can you integrate with our MES or shop-floor systems?
Yes. The constraint is usually that the plant cannot stop, so integration is designed around a system that stays live — read models rather than direct table access, and cutover by unit rather than by date. A big-bang ERP cutover on a running plant is how a quarter gets lost.
How do you handle a plant that has stopped following its own ERP?
That is the common case, and it is not fixed by training. Operators log reality when the software agrees with the floor. Discovery means watching the actual material movement — heats, batches, yields, scrap — and designing to that rather than to the process document.
