Solution

One stock figure, everywhere you sell

Most stock problems are not counting problems; they are timing problems. Who reserved it, when the replenishment lands, and which channel is allowed to sell the last unit.

Outcomes

  • Fewer oversells and backorders
  • Purchasing based on real demand
  • Stock value that matches the ledger
  • Channel allocation under your control

Solution

Where it is used

Multi-location stock

Transfers, reservations and location-level availability.

Multi-channel selling

Web, marketplace and B2B drawing on one pool.

Supplier replenishment

Lead times, minimum quantities and automatic reorder points.

What we deliver

  • Real-time availability
  • Reservation and allocation rules
  • Batch, serial and expiry tracking
  • Demand forecasting inputs
  • Valuation and stock reporting

Who this is for

  • Businesses holding stock across several locations or channels
  • Companies with both stockouts and overstock at the same time

When this is the wrong choice

  • Single-location, low-SKU operations well served by an ERP module

Problems this solves

Stock on paper does not match the shelf

Counting adjustments, unrecorded picks and returns drift the figure. Transaction-level movement history makes the difference explainable rather than mysterious.

Allocation conflicts across channels

Webshop, B2B orders and internal projects reserve the same stock. Reservation logic with clear priority rules stops overselling.

Re-ordering by memory

Min/max levels, lead times and consumption rates turn reordering into a checked suggestion rather than an individual's recall.

Architecture and integration

  • Single availability calculation shared by every channel, with reservation and allocation rules.
  • Multi-location stock with transfer, in-transit and quarantine states.
  • Reorder logic based on movement history, lead time and seasonality, surfaced as suggestions a buyer approves.

How delivery runs

  1. 01

    Movement model

    Define every event that moves stock — receipt, pick, transfer, return, adjustment, scrap — before designing a screen.

  2. 02

    Counting strategy

    Cycle counts by value class instead of annual full counts, with variance reporting.

  3. 03

    Pilot in one location

    Run the new system alongside the current process in one warehouse or product group until the numbers agree.

  4. 04

    Rollout and migration

    Opening balances imported per location, with a frozen cut-over window and a documented rollback.

Realistic timeline

Weeks 1–2

Movement model, locations and counting strategy.

Weeks 3–8

Core receiving, picking, transfers and adjustments with scanning.

Weeks 9–14

Integration, migration, pilot and rollout.

What moves the price

Number of locations and bins

Single-stockroom logic is simple; multi-site with transfers and bin-level tracking is a different system.

Barcode and device support

Scanner hardware, offline handling and label printing each add scope.

ERP or accounting integration

Two-way synchronisation of products, stock values and purchase orders is usually the largest single item.

Where projects go wrong

Go-live with unreliable opening balances

A full count or a per-class count precedes cut-over; without trustworthy opening numbers the system is blamed for legacy errors.

Process not changed with the software

Scanning only works if receiving actually scans. Training and floor-level pilots are part of the plan, not an afterthought.
