Logistics & Distribution
Custom Software for Logistics & Distribution
Simple solutions for complex problems. We specialize in moving aging Microsoft Access databases and spreadsheet sprawl to modern cloud systems, without breaking the workflow your team knows. Dispatch, driver logs, and warehouse counts that only agree at month end.
Sound familiar?
Where haulers and distributors usually get stuck
- The real system is a spreadsheet emailed around with numbers in the filename
- Two people have to re-key the same order into two places
- Reporting means someone stays late with a pivot table
- The software you bought does 40% of the job and blocks the other 60%
What's included
What you actually get
- Business process review and documentation
- System blueprint with diagrams and user cases
- Prototype checkpoints before anything ships
- Cloud storage with desktop, tablet, and phone access
- Training and ongoing support
One system your team actually uses, on desktop, tablet, and phone.
Logistics & Distribution
The systems we end up in
Most haulers and distributors are running some version of these four. Custom Software work usually starts by making them agree with each other.
Dispatch and load boards
Driver logs and compliance records
Warehouse receiving and pick lists
Rate quoting and freight billing
What changes
- One live view of loads, drivers, and inventory
- Proof of delivery attached to the invoice automatically
- Counts that hold up without a full recount
How we work
Custom Software, cut into four pieces
Review
We sit with the people doing the work and document how it really runs, not how the org chart says it runs.
Blueprint
Diagrams, user cases, and a scope you approve before a line of code exists. No surprises in month three.
Prototype
You click a working version at every checkpoint. Wrong turns get caught while they are still cheap.
Launch and support
Migration, training, and ongoing help. You own the system, the data, and the documentation.
Proof
Work like this, written up
The business challenge, what we did, and what happened — in full, on the page.
Grimm Scientific Industries
A spreadsheet-run manufacturer replaced day-to-day operations with a purpose-built ERP. They have since quadrupled in size on the same system.
4x growth in company size since the system went in
Networking & Managed ServicesAthens Mold and Machine
No IT department, spotty network security, no disaster plan, and a consumer ISP router carrying a machine shop. An audit first, then a network rebuilt from the ground up and documented.
0 to 1 disaster recovery plans — there was none before
JobTrax Custom ApplicationThe Proz
A mobile crew, photo documentation that had to reach the office the same day, and a scheduler the general manager could drag jobs onto. Eight years of continuous development later, they are the dominant hood cleaner in their area.
