Inventory management software development

The disconnect between your inventory management solution’s counts and physical reality creates daily frustration. Products that should be available aren't, staff waste hours searching for misplaced items, and customers get the dreaded “Sorry, we're out of stock” despite what your website promises.
Inventory management doesn't have to be your weak point. Whether you’re managing retail locations, manufacturing materials, or online channels, we can transform your inventory from a headache into a reliable foundation through custom inventory management software.

Our support team handles everything from troubleshooting and bug fixes to implementing new features as your business grows.

An app that solved inventory challenges

It all started with a tobacco manufacturer struggling with an overly complex and cluttered inventory system. The frustration sparked our journey to create an inventory management solution that people would actually want to use. Brights took a special approach to inventory system creation, building Trust, a mobile scanning app that transformed inventory data management into a simple task. As a result, processing times dropped, accuracy improved, and the team could finally trust their enterprise inventory management software to show what sat on their shelves.

Benefit from advanced technologies.

AI-powered predictive analytics

Businesses often discover inventory problems only after they've already impacted customers. We build inventory management solutions using AI to analyze your sales history and market trends, identifying patterns humans can miss. Such inventory management software spots customer preferences and seasonal trends, learns what's likely to sell and when, and thus helps you minimize stockouts and overstocking and accurately anticipate inventory needs.

Computer vision

Manual inventory counting can disrupt operations, introduce errors, and simply exhaust your team. Brights can offer a computer-vision-based inventory counting solution that transforms this process using cameras, recognizing products on shelves, in storage, or at the manufacturing facility. The image analysis software turns a draining procedure into a background task, giving you accurate counts without pulling your team from critical duties.

IoT

Inventory accuracy depends on knowing precisely where items are located. IoT-based inventory management solutions use connected sensors to track products as they move through your supply chain, automatically updating your inventory management solution in real time. This visibility optimizes warehouse space, improves routing, and provides accurate delivery estimates, transforming inventory from a question mark into a fact.

Inventory management development process.

STEP 1
Initial engagement

We start by understanding what's not working in your current inventory approach. Whether items are disappearing or counts never match reality, we listen first. Together, we create an inventory management solution strategy that addresses your specific challenges, explaining each step in simple language.

STEP 2
Project setup

With direction established, we organize the work ahead. Our inventory management software company works with your team to define project scope, set up tracking tools, assign the right people, and create a realistic timeline with clear milestones.

STEP 3
Discovery phase

This is where we put on our detective hats. We observe how your warehouse actually operates, talk with the people handling inventory daily, and map out where things break down. This ensures your inventory management system solves real problems your team faces, not theoretical ones.

STEP 4
Inventory system design

At this stage, ideas become visible. Our designers create screens and clickable prototypes that make sense to the people who use them daily. Basically, they turn complex inventory tasks into straightforward processes that feel natural whether you're on the warehouse floor or in the office.

STEP 5
Development

Building an inventory management system works best in planned stages. We create software in short cycles, completing functional pieces you can review early and often. This keeps the inventory management software project grounded in your real-world needs and allows adjustments as we go.

STEP 6
Quality assurance

We're thorough with testing. Every feature, inventory workflow, and security measure undergoes rigorous examination under conditions that mirror your actual operations. We simulate busy days and high volumes to ensure your inventory system stands up to daily demands without faltering.

STEP 7
System deployment

We carefully introduce the inventory management software into your business, often in phases to ensure a smooth transition while minimizing operations disruption. We remain present during this critical period, addressing any issues immediately as they appear.

STEP 8
Maintenance and support

Your business evolves, and so should your inventory system. Our relationship continues with ongoing support that keeps your system running smoothly and up-to-date. As new needs emerge, we help the system grow alongside you, ensuring it remains an asset rather than an obstacle.
