  • Document every movement

    Every receipt, issue and transfer has a slip that can be checked against the quantity actually handed over.

  • Know where materials are

    Find pipes, valves, fittings and meters by item code and warehouse. Scan a barcode or QR code to issue the right item.

  • Stocktaking and reconciliation

    Count stock on a phone, compare with the books and resolve discrepancies before adjusting.

Document every issue, reconcile actual use

For every issue, know which job it is for, how much was used and what must be returned.

  1. Request materials

    The technical team raises a request for a project, repair order or maintenance plan.

    Request slip
  2. Check and approve

    Check stock, choose the supplying warehouse and approve under your utility’s process.

  3. Issue and hand over

  4. Reconcile and return

    Confirm actual use, return surplus stock and cost it to the job.

Buy for real demand, cut inventory costs

Excess stock ties up capital, space and handling. Stock records tell you what to buy, how much and when.

Check stock before buying

See what each warehouse holds and compare it with construction, repair and maintenance needs.

Use what you already have

Transfer between warehouses before requesting a purchase, so nothing is bought twice.

Minimum stock alerts

Set a minimum level for each item. Get warned before stock runs out so you can reorder in time without overbuying.
