Tricorn - MRP Software

Quote to invoice in one system, built for UK precision engineering over 25 years. Enhanced by AI intelligence

Production control built for UK precision engineering and subcontract manufacturers. 25 years in development, 400+ manufacturers, 6,000+ users.

Tricorn runs the whole job from quotation to invoice, with less admin at every step.

Quotes built in minutes from previous jobs, including materials, operations, bought-in parts and subcon costs — then converted straight to a works order with no re-keying.

Works orders with operations, times, materials and tooling, and job cards and travellers generated automatically.

Purchasing and goods-in — POs raised from works orders or stock requirements, RFQs to suppliers, stock by location with batch tracking, so you know material is short before it stops a job.

Deliveries and certification — delivery notes and C of Cs generated automatically, with full traceability of materials, processes and inspection records behind every one.

Invoicing direct from completed deliveries, so billing isn't three weeks behind despatch.

ISO 9001, AS9100 and IATF 16949 records are built into the job rather than bolted on afterwards. Modules include QMS, Contract Review, Assemblies, Scheduler, SFDC, Tri-Time, Dashboard, Asset Manager, CRM and accounts interfaces to Sage, QuickBooks and Xero.

Tricorn Cloud — the same system, browser-accessible from any device. No servers to maintain, automatic backups, and job status you can check from home or the car park. On-premise remains available for shops with specific IT or customer data requirements.

Tricorn Intelligence — new. Ask a question in plain English and get a checked answer straight from your live database. No report writer, no exports, no SQL. Five reports out of the box: orderbook overview, quote conversion, job profitability with planned-versus-actual variance, purchasing spend by category, and billings by period. The connection is strictly read-only, and every figure is sanity-checked before it's shown.

Live in weeks, not months. Cyber Essentials Plus accredited.
