Manufacturing & Retail

Plant, inventory, store and online sales data brought into one place, so production and stock decisions use the same numbers.

Where the data usually lives

  • ERP for production, purchase and finance
  • Machine and plant-floor data (PLC, SCADA, MES)
  • Warehouse and inventory systems
  • Point-of-sale and e-commerce platforms
  • Distributor and dealer spreadsheets

We have delivered projects for Relaxo Footwears, a footwear manufacturing company.

Where Manufacturing & Retail data gets stuck

The problems we hear about most often in this sector, each set against what we build for it.

  1. Stock figures differ between the ERP, the warehouse system and the stores.

    What we build: Pipelines that bring ERP, warehouse and store data into one reporting store, refreshed on a schedule.

  2. Machine stoppages are logged by hand, if at all, so their causes are hard to trace.

    What we build: Collection of machine and production records into a database the maintenance team can query.

  3. Demand planning runs on last year's spreadsheet and experience.

    What we build: Sales and stock dashboards by product, location and channel, with forecasts where the history supports them.

  4. Online and in-store sales are reported separately and never quite reconcile.

    What we build: One customer and order model across channels, so sales reports add up.

All use cases for Manufacturing & Retail, including general ones

What we work on in Manufacturing & Retail

Manufacturers and retailers run on many systems: ERP, plant machines, warehouses, point of sale and online stores. We connect them, keep the databases healthy and build the reports planners and store teams use every day.

  • Production and plant data

    Output, downtime and quality records from machines and shift logs, stored in one place and reported per line, shift and product.

  • Inventory and supply chain

    Stock positions across plants, warehouses and stores, joined to purchase and dispatch data, so planners see what is where.

  • Retail and online sales

    Point-of-sale, e-commerce and distributor sales in one model, reported by product, region and channel.

Questions about Manufacturing & Retail projects

Anything not covered here, ask us on the consultation call.

Can you work with our existing ERP?
Yes. We usually leave the ERP as it is and read from it, through its database, APIs or export files, into a separate reporting store. Your ERP setup does not change.
Our plants and stores run on different systems. Where do we start?
Usually with one report that matters, such as stock by location. We connect the systems that report needs first, then add the rest in stages.
