MetraSlate
One Platform for the Work You Do.
Standard brings your people, equipment, work, quality, and business records into one operations platform. Industry editions adapt it to the language and requirements of your work.

The platform
What Every Edition Shares.
One record spine. Every department reads and writes the same records, so nothing is re-typed between systems.
- Work and Records. Requests, estimates, orders, the record each one leaves
- People and Permissions. Who may do what, recorded against the person
- Equipment and Assets. What you own, where it is, what it has been through
- Quality and Documents. Review, nonconformance, controlled documents
- Reporting. Questions answered from the same records
- Business Operations. Invoicing, receivables, the books
Editions

Metra Praxis
How an Edition Gets Made.
The method is public. Read about Metra Praxis. The method and the edition documents are in the library.
Learn the Work
The people who do the work describe it in their own words: the roles, the records, the workflows, the standards that bind them, and the numbers that matter. The operator writes it down exactly and never proposes a solution during this stage.
Define the System
The whole system on ten pages: every record as a subject with its lifecycle, the spine record that cannot be wrong, who sees what, the standards mapped to the records that prove them, the integrations, the volumes.
Review with Domain Experts
The picture is read against the interviews and the research, section by section. A section that does not hold sends the operator back to the expert with a specific question, not to their own judgment.
Deliver a Bounded First Release
A first product on one page, with a bounded scope and an acceptance audit written before the building starts. What ships first, and how everyone will know it worked.
Verify It Against the Work
Evidence from working software, checked by people who did not write it, against the records the experts said mattered. What is proven is recorded with how it was observed.
