Smart Warehousing · RFID

Know what is in the store without opening a single box.

Tagged stock counts itself. The shelves report what is on them, the doorway records what leaves, and the count you take at month end agrees with the one in the system.

Stock-taking is expensive, and it is still wrong

A manual count takes a team off their work for days. Each item has to be handled, read and written down, and by the time the sheets are added up the figure is already out of date. Anything that walked out in between is discovered weeks later, if at all.

Smart Warehousing replaces the count with a reading. Every item carries a tag that identifies it from a distance, without line of sight and without being touched. Readers do the work - on the ceiling, at the doorway, or in an officer's hand - and the system holds a live picture of what is in the store, what left, and when.

Build it up as you need it

Start with tagging. Add the rest when the case for it is clear.

Core
Tag it once, on the way in

Labels are printed and encoded in-house and fixed to each item before it goes on the shelf. One pass, at goods-in, and the item identifies itself from then on.

Core
Read and verify at the desk

A reader at the workstation confirms what was written to each tag, so a mislabelled item is caught at the point it is created, not at the next audit.

Optional
The room counts itself

A reader mounted in the ceiling sweeps the room on a schedule and reports what has changed. The stock figure keeps itself current with nobody in the aisle.

Optional
The doorway keeps the record

Items approved for release pass through one designated doorway, and the exit is recorded as it happens - so what left the store is a fact, not a recollection.

Optional
Stock-take in an afternoon

A handheld reader walks the shelves and collects every tag in range, turning a multi-day count into a short walk with a device.

Optional
Who took it, not just what went

A camera at the doorway ties the person to the items leaving with them. Powerful, and subject to data-protection rules - we will take you through what that means before you commit to it.

What it changes

  • Stock figures that are current, not as at the last count
  • Losses visible in days rather than at the next audit
  • Staff back on their own work instead of counting
  • An exit record for every item that leaves the store
  • Fewer write-offs argued over at year end

Before we quote

The right configuration depends on the room, so we start with it: floor area, ceiling height and aisle widths, where the entry and exit points are, and whether there is wired network at the point a reader would sit.

We then confirm which parts are essential for you and which are worth adding later, and issue the hardware specification that goes out to suppliers - written to open standards, so you are not tied to one of them.

Send us the dimensions and how stock moves through it today, and we will come back with a configuration and what it would take to run it.
