EnterpriseWarehouse OS · 3D twin & order fulfilment
From a PDF purchase list to thousands of packed orders.
For distribution warehouses that fulfil many small orders every cycle — cooperatives, member stores, B2B and grocery. Procurement is read from the PDF, stock is put away in a 3D twin of the floor, every order is weighed into the right bag, and every bag is scanned to its dispatch box.
- 3D twin of zones and racks
- PDF → rows in under a minute
- One scan bag to box
WhySound familiar?
Three things we hear in every first conversation.
From warehouse and operations heads fulfilling many small orders. Composite quotes from discovery calls — the problems are real; the names are left out.
-
“Two people spend two days typing the purchase list.”
It arrives as a PDF with merged columns; every cycle it is retyped into a spreadsheet, and every typo becomes a stock-out.
Procurement leadDays lost every cycle
-
“We decide the bag at the packing table.”
Packers guess whether an order fits a small or large bag, repack when it doesn’t, and the line backs up.
Packing supervisorRepacks and a slow line
-
“A box goes missing and nobody knows whose it was.”
Bags and boxes aren’t linked, so a lost box means calling members to rebuild what was inside.

HowWhat changes with Warehouse OS
The same three problems, on the screens that solve them.
Product screens with illustrative data. In a walkthrough we load one of your cycles.
02Guessing bags
Every order is weighed into a bag before packing starts.
- Orders joined with product weights; small, large or split
- Liquids and heavy items handled by rule, not by memory
The packing line just packs
03Lost boxes
Scan the bag, scan the box — linked for good.
- Permanent bag tags mapped to durable dispatch boxes
- Every box carries its route, van and member on the record
Every box traceable to its order

Illustrative data
Zones and racks in 3D, height by fill — with a putaway suggestion for the truck at the gate.
Product screens with illustrative data — hubs, members and products are placeholders.
02List to dispatch
Ten steps. Nobody retypes anything.
Each step reads what the one before it wrote — so the box on the van traces back to the bag, the order, the rack and the line on the purchase list.
