About Telangana State Trade Promotion Corporation(TSTPC)
TSTPC plays a vital public enterprise role in fulfilling large-scale educational, institutional, and commercial stationery requirements across Telangana. From massive procurement of paper reels and specialized board to high-speed paper cutting, ruled/unruled notebook manufacturing, binding, and book publishing, their operations are high-volume, deadline-driven, and precision-dependent.
Unlike conventional batch manufacturing, printing and stationery production involves multi-step conversion processes where paper yield, scrap management, trimming loss, and machine scheduling dictate overall delivery timelines and cost efficiency.

Challenges Before ERP
Managing high-speed notebook conversion and commercial printing through disjointed tracking methods created operational bottlenecks:
Inability to dynamically track paper reel consumption against finished notebook output led to untracked trim waste and variance in consumption norms.
Difficulty maintaining dual-unit balances(reels in Metric Tons vs. sheets in Reams vs. finished books in Bundles/ Pieces) caused discrepancy between physical stock & system records.
Partial batches moving between ruling machines, collating stations, and binding lines were tracked manually, causing
scheduling delays and idle machine time.
Planning remained reactive during seasonal peak loads, material shortages caused unexpected line stoppages, and true lot-wise manufacturing costs were hard to compute.
SourcePro ERP introduced an integrated, data-driven manufacturing execution framework across TSTPC’s converting and printing lines:
Production & Cutting → Became Structured
Inventory Tracking → Became Granular
Shop-Floor Scheduling → Became Synchronized
Procurement → Became Accurate
Costing & Profitability → Became Transparent

Unified Financial & Operational Data
In high-volume paper conversion and notebook manufacturing, maintaining exact control over paper yield, machine lines, and trimming waste is critical. Before implementing SourcePro ERP, tracking stock across multiple units like reels, reams,
and finished bundles was complex and manual.
With SourcePro ERP, our complete flow—from raw reel procurement, precision cutting, and printing down to finished goods inventory and dispatch—is seamlessly integrated. We now operate with clear production visibility, reduced material wastage, and complete confidence in our batch costs.
