What this solves

What a take-home ration supplier deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it

01Today

Department pays 3-6 months late, often because receipts or reports are missing. A lot that fails the lab test is found after dispatch.

02In MatruOS

MatruOS sets up 9 routines, 2 workflows, 3 registers and 8 licences for a take-home ration supplier, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.

03What changes

The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.

Where you sit

MatruOS starts from how your business earns

Who you sell to, who you buy from, how credit moves and where you sit in the chain decide how your screens, reminders and reports are set up.

Your customers

  • State women and child development department
  • District programme officers and CDPOs
  • State livelihood missions (for SHG plants)
  • School nutrition programmes (PM POSHAN) where states buy dry items

Your suppliers

  • FCI or state agencies (subsidised wheat and rice where allotted)
  • Grain and pulse traders
  • Jaggery and sugar traders
  • Oil suppliers
  • Micronutrient premix makers
  • Printed pouch makers
  • NABL labs
  • Transporters

Credit and cash

Inputs 15-30 days or cash for SHG plants; the department pays 60-180 days after bill with receipts and test reports; some states pay a mobilisation advance to SHG plants

The plant buys a month's input on credit or working capital, supplies against the indent, and waits 2-6 months for the bill; payment delay is the main constraint
