Supply Chain Management Software
Working with one aspect of supply chain management, a professional can learn all its challenges, while knowing little about what happens in the other departments. This is only natural: SCM is a huge field of work; but this doesn’t mean silos are inevitable. With proper supply chain management technologies, your company can harmonize and orchestrate different processes, from planning, procurement and sourcing to execution, warehousing, and analytics.
Our expertise in custom development enables you to take the optimal course in grasping these opportunities, be it with custom solutions, integrations, deciding what functionalities to collect under “one hood” and what to disperse throughout the digital ecosystem for scalability, where to use AI, and so on. All in the name of a transparent, robust, and risk-free supply chain.
Integrating SCM for supply chain resilience
The more globalized and digitized our world gets, the more factors are to be reckoned with in supply chain management: supply chain operations across borders, different markets, human resources, demand fluctuations, to name a few. Resilience is what allows businesses to capitalize on the benefits that come with this new reality. Integrating the different processes within SCM, bridging planning to execution and monitoring is the task that technology can help handle best. Having created multiple custom solutions, we help apply the best practices in supply chain orchestration through functionalities and seamless integrations.
Automation and Industry 4.0 for supply chain
The entire system is as strong as the weakest link in the chain – and supply chains are no exception. Thankfully, there are countless automation tactics for various aspects of SCM, and appropriate software to cover them, from supplier relationship management through warehouse operations to report generation and beyond. Automation is the cornerstone of what is called Industry 4.0, since it not only makes the potentially weak links more efficient but also paves the way for data strategies and further AI-enhanced approaches. Our experts help each company find their individual perfect way to automate processes smartly and strategically.
SCM software we work on
-
Supply Chain Planning (SCP)
In some cases, it is wise to opt for a comprehensive custom SCP system that will help optimize the end-to-end production flow from raw material procurement to product delivery.

-
Inventory management software
We develop a large number of functionalities to track and manage stock levels, orders, sales, and deliveries, keeping the stocks visible and adequate.
-
Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) systems
Many companies find it necessary to optimize the way they manage interactions with suppliers, ultimately to improve supplier performance.
-
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems
A good CRM system allows to positively impact the entire supply chain by closing the loop from demand to planning and back, resulting in customer satisfaction, loyalty, and sales growth.
-
Warehouse Management Systems (WMS)
Warehouse management is the area where automation possibilities are most numerous and effective, especially in inventory tracking, picking, packing, and shipping.
-
Transportation Management Systems (TMS)
Transportation management tech allows more than just controlling the movement from point A to point B: we develop features for route planning, optimization, as well as vehicle maintenance, temperature monitoring and more.
-
Demand forecasting and analytics systems
Demand forecasting systems, especially those using AI/ML, are an excellent tool to forecast future customer demand using historical data, safeguarding the entire supply chain.
When to opt for custom supply chain management solutions?
The current market for supply chain software is rich; there is hardly an aspect of SCM without an array of solutions to cover it, designed by everyone from large corporations like Oracle to startups. However, there are still countless situations where you might consider having unique custom solutions developed specifically for your organization.
For example, if your business’s workflows are highly specialized or niche, you may find out-of-the-box software to be limiting. Also, each company scales different parts of its supply chain operations at different paces for good strategic reasons, which, in turn, warrants custom software to keep up. Chances are, you are also striving to build an ecosystem where different functionalities are kept within the most logical systems, tied together with integrations. We have also encountered businesses who operate under specific combinations of compliance requirements that only custom software can cover.
Finally, custom supply chain management software means independence from what the market dictates for similar out-of-the-box systems – and also long-term cost efficiency. In fact, if you count the costs of licensing, upgrading, and customizations to generic systems, having one that’s custom built is often a more rational solution.

The Challenges We Help Solve
Reducing Uncertainty
One of the age-old problems in supply chain management, lack of predictability, ultimately stems from lack of data – or capacities to handle it. We focus on developing software that will contribute its part into the overall transparency and visibility, allowing for precise demand forecasting, real-time monitoring, and adaptive planning in everything, from sourcing to routing. The data obtained from different sources can then be used in ways that are unique to each company to mitigate risks, adapt to market fluctuations and disruptions, and improve decision making.
Bridging the Gap Between Planning and Execution
It is hard but rewarding to keep to an overarching supply chain strategy, where planning and execution are tightly woven together into a single fabric. Software can enable this by addressing the various connection points between the two sides and ensuring seamless data flow under a unified data governance strategy. Tailored functionalities can synchronize production schedules, inventory levels, and logistics, thereby aligning strategic plans with operational activities.
Achieving Transparency
Across the Supply Chain Achieving transparency across the supply chain can be accomplished with custom software that provides end-to-end visibility into all supply chain activities. Features such as real-time tracking, detailed reporting, and instant access to data on production, materials, and shipping processes enable stakeholders to monitor and manage every aspect of the supply chain. By incorporating blockchain technology or Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, custom solutions ensure data accuracy and traceability, fostering trust and collaboration among partners.
Ensuring ROI from Cutting-Edge Technologies
Supply chain management, transportation and logistics are among the industries that are now experiencing the most effects from recently available tech like AI, ML, blockchain, and IoT. At the same time, the practical success cases of using these innovations are, as a rule, unique to each organization. We take care to help companies use the newest tech where it’s really needed, not just as a fashionable novelty, so that our clients can expect early ROI and tangible benefits from implementation.
