Track stock movements, freight claims and returns without spreadsheet chaos
Centralized inventory movement ledgers, carrier freight claims workspaces, and dockside receiving interfaces. Replace brittle email chains with one shared operational system your warehouse and dispatch teams actually trust.
*Paid audit from $1,000 · 5–7 working days · you keep the prototype and written build specification.
Where warehouse and logistics margins silently leak
Shipments arrive damaged, stock counts desynchronize, and returns languish in inboxes. That delay creates carrier dispute write-offs and delayed fulfillment.
Stock Count Discrepancies
Inventory counts in master spreadsheets never match physical shelf stock, causing unfulfilled orders, frantic phone calls, and expensive rush shipping fees.
Freight Claims Lost in Inboxes
Carrier damage claims, supplier returns, and BOL discrepancy photos sit scattered in personal email threads, missing carrier filing deadlines and leaking margin.
Multi-Depot Blind Spots
Stock transfers between warehouses and field trucks rely on manual message updates, leaving dispatchers blind to real-time material availability.
Engineered for dockside speed and traceable accounting
Relational database tables, photographic claims logging, and clean dispatch workflows built directly around your operational flow.
Relational Stock Movement Ledger
Live atomic tracking of material movements, bin locations, and inventory transfers with append-only logs so every item adjustment is permanently accountable.
Centralized Freight Claims Registry
Structured damage claims workspace with automatic photographic evidence intake, vendor dispute deadlines, and clear responsibility handoffs.
Multi-Carrier Shipment Portal
Customer and dispatch visibility for outbound freight, packing slips, BOL documents, and carrier tracking without expensive per-seat software licenses.
Dockside Mobile Receiving
Mobile web receiving interface for warehouse docks with local browser draft saving. Full offline sync and barcode scanning can be added in a later phase, scoped separately.
TernFlow — Multi-Store Claims & Dispute Workspace
Explore how we architected a centralized role-based queue for customer returns, carrier damage claims, and payment disputes featuring automated SLA tracking and append-only audit trails (changes are logged, never overwritten).
Custom software isn't always the right choice
Compare off-the-shelf enterprise WMS platforms with a focused operational system.
Build custom if…
- You manage physical inventory across multiple depots, yards, or staging locations and spreadsheets have become a bottleneck.
- Freight claims, customer returns, or supplier chargebacks cost your staff 10+ hours per week in email follow-up.
- Off-the-shelf enterprise WMS tools are too bloated, often take several months to deploy, and charge per-seat licenses for warehouse staff.
Buy off-the-shelf if…
- You run a simple single-depot shop with standard Shopify or ShipStation label printing that satisfies all requirements.
- You purely drop-ship and never handle, store, inspect, or stage physical inventory.
- Your physical warehouse workflows and storage layouts change completely every few weeks.
How it works: from audit to a working system
A low-risk structured progression where you see and verify interactive screens before code development begins.
Operations Audit
Workflow bottleneck mapping (5–7 working days). You get a clickable core-flow prototype (5–6 screens) and a written fixed-price build specification. 100% credited toward a Custom CRM build if started within 60 days.
Interactive Prototype Review
Check the workflow and sample calculations in a clickable prototype before you commit to the build.
Fixed-Scope Build
A focused micro-system (like the Roofing Takeoff Engine) takes 2–4 weeks ($5k–$8k). A core operational CRM (Phase 1 Release) takes 6–12 weeks ($15k–$35k). Live working demos every 1–2 weeks with fast async feedback loops to keep your launch date on track.
Release & Code Handover
Production deployment, team onboarding, and complete Git repository handover. Optional month-to-month care from $500/mo.
