Vsimple today announced expanded industry-specific modules that bring clarity to complex work across manufacturers, distributors, dealers, construction firms, and professional services. The release positions Vsimple as a single operations management platform that replaces scattered tools with an integrated workspace, addressing needs for manufacturing operations software, AI-powered business management tools, operations management platform requirements, and a distribution management platform.

Problem statement

Across asset-heavy, service-driven, and project-based industries, critical information remains fragmented across email, spreadsheets, ERPs, and disconnected apps. Ownership is unclear, visibility is limited, and teams spend more time managing processes than executing work.

Vsimple as the guide and plan

Vsimple connects people, processes, systems, data, and embedded AI into industry modules that reflect how work actually runs. Each module combines tailored workflows, integrations, and vAI (the embedded AI engine) so organizations can simplify handoffs, reduce manual entry, and improve execution without replacing core systems.

• Primary outcomes: clearer ownership, real-time visibility, fewer delays, and reduced rework

• Target use cases: production control, service dispatch, project closeout, rental and parts management

Purpose-built for four core industries

The platform now offers modules designed for how work flows in these sectors:

• Contract Manufacturing — a manufacturing operations software approach that connects sales, engineering, production, and quality across jobs, revisions, and change requests.

• Material Handling — a distribution management platform style solution unifying sales, rentals, service, logistics, and customer communication.

• Commercial Interiors — an operations model that ties sales, design, project management, vendors, and installers from quote to install.

• Heavy Equipment Dealerships — an operations platform for sales, rentals, service, parts, and logistics across equipment lifecycles.

Industry-specific execution (what each module solves)

Each module is configured around common operational patterns:

• Centralized work intake and request routing

• Cross-team task orchestration and accountability

• Embedded AI to automate repetitive tasks and surface actional insights

• Connectors to ERPs, CRMs, document storage, and communication tools

• Real-time dashboards and reporting for leaders

Examples by industry

• Contract Manufacturing: visibility across revisions and change requests, fewer manual entries.

• Material Handling: lifecycle tracking to prevent downtime and ensure consistent customer experiences.

• Commercial Interiors: clear approvals and install coordination from quote to handoff.

• Heavy Equipment Dealerships: faster parts response and coordinated field/back-office workflows.

vAI — AI embedded where work happens

vAI operates inside workflows to automate routine steps, suggest next actions, and help teams prioritize exceptions. vAI is positioned as an operations-focused AI agent, part of a suite of AI-powered business management tools that act on real operational context rather than generic prompts.

Built by operators, for operators

Vsimple targets middle-market organizations where execution drives margin. The company delivers configured workflows plus implementation, training, and ongoing optimization under its Software in Partnership model to ensure the platform evolves with each customer’s operations.

What each Vsimple module delivers

• Industry-specific workflows mapped to real operations

• Embedded AI to automate work and guide decisions

• Connected data across departments and systems

• Real-time visibility, reporting, and accountability

• Implementation, training, and continuous optimization

What’s next

Additional industry modules are planned for the first half of 2026. Future releases will deepen vAI capabilities so AI can learn from each company’s workflows and take more automated actions on behalf of operations teams.
