Project Overview
Our client, a leading tiles and sanitary ware distributor with 3 showrooms, was struggling with manual inventory tracking and inefficient customer quotation processes.
The business was using Excel sheets for inventory management and paper catalogs for customer quotations. This led to frequent stock discrepancies, pricing errors, and lengthy customer waiting times during the quotation process.
Their system couldn't track inventory across showrooms, generate professional quotations quickly, or manage supplier orders effectively. This resulted in lost sales opportunities and excessive inventory carrying costs.
We developed a specialized Tiles & Sanitary Shop Management System with integrated inventory, quotation, and order management features. The solution included visual product catalogs, barcode scanning for inventory, and automated supplier ordering.
The system provided real-time stock visibility across locations, quick quotation generation with images, and purchase order automation. Staff could serve customers 45% faster while maintaining 90% better inventory accuracy.
Key Challenges
The business faced several operational challenges specific to the tiles and sanitary ware industry.
Inventory Inaccuracy
15-20% stock discrepancies costing $8,000+ monthly from mismatched physical counts and system records.
Quotation Delays
25-30 minutes per quote due to manual price checks, losing 3+ customer opportunities daily.
Multi-Showroom Sync
Customers frustrated when items shown as available online were sold at other locations (28% complaint rate).
Supplier Chaos
35% of supplier orders had discrepancies due to manual PO processing and tracking.
Wasteful Expirations
7% of tile inventory expired/went obsolete annually due to poor FIFO tracking ($45,000+ loss).
Project Management
No system to track bulk orders for construction projects, leading to delivery delays.
Customer Retention
Only 18% repeat business due to no CRM for tracking preferences or purchase history.
Mobile Limitations
Sales staff couldn't check inventory or process orders during customer site visits.
