Distribution operations where demand decisions are made by gut feel
Regional distributors and wholesalers sit between suppliers and customers, managing inventory levels, replenishment cycles, and delivery schedules across dozens or hundreds of SKUs. The decisions that drive profitability - what to stock, how much, when to reorder, which customers to prioritise - are made by experienced people using spreadsheets and instinct.
Where we see time and money leak
- Demand forecasting - reorder points based on historical gut feel, not data-driven demand signals
- Warehouse allocation - picking, packing, and shipping coordinated through paper or basic WMS with manual overrides
- Order management - customer orders processed through email, phone, and portal with manual entry into ERP
- Delivery coordination - route planning and driver scheduling done manually, delivery status communicated reactively
What we do
We connect your order flow from customer intake through to delivery. We build demand visibility that turns reordering from reactive to proactive, automate order processing, and give your team real-time visibility across the warehouse and delivery chain.
Typical engagement: 8 weeks from first visit to running system. Your team owns everything we build.
Common starting point: Automating order intake and processing, building inventory visibility across warehouse locations, or connecting delivery tracking to customer communication.
