SoftwareRISEC Inventory Management

Know exactly what you can build with the stock you have.

Connect part availability, BOM requirements, stock movements, supplier orders, and production demand to make purchasing and build decisions using accurate inventory records.

Parts, stock and BOMsManaged deploymentFrom $499/month
Replace disconnected inventory spreadsheets

A job should not wait while someone checks three spreadsheets and calls the warehouse to find out whether the right parts are available. Inventory Management connects your parts, stock locations, supplier records, purchase orders, bills of materials and production builds in one working system.

Concept illustration

Built for equipment assemblers, panel builders, electronics manufacturers and other component-driven operations, the system helps your team work from the same part and stock records instead of repeatedly reconciling separate files.

Control the parts, purchases and builds behind every shipment.

Explore all 38 capabilities by the job your team needs to do. Open a capability for its full scope.

Manage part specifications, supplier references, revisions and documentation in one place.

Organized part catalogues:

Arrange components into nested categories so engineers and stores can locate the same item quickly.

Part templates and configurable attributes:

Define meaningful fields for part families, including units, dimensions and specifications, so similar-looking parts do not become interchangeable by accident.

Internal, manufacturer and supplier references:

Keep the company's part number connected to the specific manufacturer and supplier item codes used when purchasing.

Manufacturer and supplier records:

Compare approved sources without losing the underlying part identity used in a drawing or bill of materials.

Part variants, assemblies and consumables:

Distinguish purchasable components, manufactured assemblies and consumable materials so transactions follow the right workflow.

Part revisions and supporting documentation:

Retain the revision and technical context needed to investigate substitutions or changed requirements. Supported part images, attachments and documentation make identification easier at the shelf.

Minimum and maximum stocking information:

Highlight recorded replenishment thresholds as planning inputs, not as a guarantee that all shortages can be forecast automatically.

Units of measure:

Record parts and supplier pack units appropriately so a box, metre or individual component does not silently become the wrong quantity.

See the application

Track stock availability, allocations, movements and traceability across warehouses.

Multiple warehouses and nested locations:

Place stock in the real bins, rooms and stores your team uses, including appropriate external locations when configured.

Available stock and allocations:

Separate recorded on-hand quantity from material already allocated to builds or orders.

Stock statuses and controlled adjustments:

Investigate rejected, unavailable or otherwise restricted stock instead of treating every item as immediately usable.

Lot, batch and serial identities:

Follow individually identified items where the process requires traceability; retain the actual movement history rather than reconstructing links later.

Stock receipts, transfers and tracking:

See when material arrived, who moved it and where it was recorded at each stage.

Stock counts and reconciliation:

Record physical-count corrections with the supporting adjustment trail, including periodic stocktaking where configured.

Expiry and date-sensitive stock:

Identify recorded expiration dates and avoid picking material beyond permitted use where the applicable rules are set up.

Inspection and item test records:

Record available stock-item test results against the specific unit when receiving or commissioning evidence matters.

Ownership and external stock context:

Distinguish relevant ownership and external locations rather than assuming every item physically present belongs to available internal stock.

See the application

Manage BOMs, verify material availability and track builds from allocation to completion.

Multi-level bills of materials:

Link assemblies to child components, quantities and nested subassemblies, then show what is required to produce a particular quantity.

BOM import, export and revision support:

Bring controlled engineering lists into the system and maintain their version context; reconcile imported identifiers before releasing a build.

BOM validation and part availability:

Examine required material against recorded stock to identify shortages before committing to production.

Build orders and production progress:

Track an assembly from planned work through material allocation, consumption and recorded output.

Stock allocation and partial execution:

Reserve relevant component stock for a build and record actual consumption as it happens. Do not confuse reserved material with manufactured output.

Buildable-quantity analysis:

Assess how many assemblies the recorded materials can support, subject to actual BOM accuracy and availability.

Serialized build outputs:

Record a finished serialized assembly and supported constituent histories for later investigation or service.

Disassembly and rework movements:

Where the workflow supports it, document the return of recovered components to stock rather than making invisible quantity corrections.

External manufacturing support:

Record relevant outsourced manufacturing operations when a business uses an external assembler, subject to supported configuration.

See the application

Manage purchasing, supplier pricing, receiving, sales orders and returns.

Supplier-specific part pricing and identifiers:

Store the information needed to issue a correct purchasing order for an approved item.

Purchase orders, line statuses and receiving:

Follow ordered components into the warehouse and reconcile quantities actually delivered.

Manufacturer references:

Distinguish the technical manufacturer item from the commercial supplier item where needed.

Customer records and sales orders:

Keep supported customer fulfillment demand alongside the inventory affected by it.

Sales returns and stock dispositions:

Record supported return-order and stock handling rather than silently increasing a stock balance.

Stock and operational reports:

Export supported histories, generate controlled report templates and trace what changed.

See the application

Streamline warehouse work with scanning, mobile tools, labels, permissions and integrations.

Barcode and QR identification:

Use supported internal and external barcode schemes for stock or item lookup.

Mobile warehouse actions:

Supported mobile workflows cover parts, stock, purchasing, build and order views, subject to tested app and server compatibility.

Printable labels and adaptable reports:

Produce item and stock labels and operational documents with appropriate templates.

Role-based access and controlled settings:

Limit relevant purchasing, stock and administration actions to authorized users.

Documented API and plugin extensions:

Exchange data with selected systems through tested interfaces without claiming that every ERP integration works out of the box.

Configurable notifications and status views:

Surface operational events and exceptions in the supported deployment rather than relying on an external reminder spreadsheet.

See the application

Know what is available before committing to the next build.

Can we start the build today?

Open a bill of materials and review the quantities needed for the job. Compare those requirements with recorded stock and current allocation before sending someone to find missing components.

Where did the part go?

Follow stock movements through locations, receipts, transfers and production consumption. When serial or batch tracking is relevant, keep item histories linked to the materials and builds that use them.

What needs ordering?

Keep supplier items, purchasing records and expected receipts in the same environment as the parts they supply. The purchasing team can see the context of a requirement rather than working from a detached requisition.

Avoid expensive build delays with connected inventory controls.

Prevent shortages with one reliable record for every part.

A missing component can delay a shipment even when a purchasing spreadsheet shows a positive balance. The useful question is whether the correct revision, in a usable location, is available for this particular build. That requires more than a warehouse quantity.

Reduce rework by connecting the bill of materials to the actual build.

A production planner should be able to open a real assembly and see both the required components and the stock that can be allocated. Purchasing should know what to order before the job reaches an operator who cannot complete it.

Know not just how many parts exist, but which ones are usable.

A reported balance is not the same as free stock. Recorded stock can sit across nested locations, be reserved for another build, or be under a status that makes it unsuitable for immediate use. The stock view should reveal that context before someone commits to a production start date.

Catch the shortage while it is still a purchasing decision.

A controlled multi-level BOM shows which child parts an assembly needs and the quantity basis behind the requirement. Staff can inspect material availability, prepare purchasing actions and allocate incoming parts to the work that needs them. A real screen demonstration should show both the adequate-stock and shortage cases.

Prevent one part number from becoming three conflicting records.

Give engineering, purchasing and stores the same component identity.

Follow one component across three teams

Consider one purchased component used in three different assemblies. Purchasing knows its supplier code, stores knows its bin and production knows which jobs need it. Those should be views of the same component, not three records that must be matched by hand. Follow this example from purchasing through material allocation and finished assembly to see the information each team can use.

Give purchasing a reliable item to order.

A supplier may use one number, your drawing may use another, and the production team may refer to a shop-floor nickname. Your part record can link approved supplier items, manufacturer references, descriptions, units and specifications to the component your BOM actually needs. That reduces the risk of an apparently similar but incorrect item entering a job.

What we will demonstrate using your workflow

On a live walkthrough, we'll create a representative assembly, open its multi-level BOM, inspect stock availability, register a purchase receipt, allocate components to a build and review what happened afterward. You'll see the working software, not a slideshow of generic dashboard mockups.

Illustrative identifiers. Trace depth depends on the records your process captures.
Example: hundreds of components in one control panel

Consider a control-panel manufacturer building a cabinet with several hundred purchased components. The same contactor may appear in multiple panels. Some units are in stock, some are already allocated and another batch has been ordered. The system keeps the component identity consistent while recording where stock sits and which builds have consumed it.

What serial tracking can establish

For companies with serial-controlled equipment, this makes it easier to investigate a specific item's history after assembly. The exact depth of traceability depends on the way your components, receipts and production records are configured.

Keep production consumption distinct from stock adjustments.

Receiving a component, transferring it, allocating it to a build and consuming it are different events. Build orders preserve that difference, including subassembly relationships and serial-controlled output where configured. This is useful during rework, inventory investigation and customer service.

Follow an individual unit where the process requires it.

Serial numbers, batches, stock history and item test records can retain evidence against a particular stock item. For a panel shop, this may mean locating a serialized output and tracing supported source-component records. It does not mean every historical batch can be reconstructed if the shop never recorded the links.

Identify stockVerify locationRecord movement

Update stock where the movement happens.

Use scanning, mobile actions and labels to reduce retyping at receiving, stores and assembly.

Make the records usable on the warehouse floor, not just at a desk.

Barcodes and the companion mobile workflows can reduce typing when staff receive, search for, transfer or count stock. Their usefulness depends on the equipment, labeling and permissions at your site, so we validate the actual scanner and handset workflow before promising it.

Use forms and labels that work on the shop floor.

Supported stock labels, custom report templates and barcode/QR workflows can reduce lookup and transcription at receiving, stores and assembly. We'll test scanners and label printers with the selected installation; the hardware is not assumed to be included with the subscription.

Give supervisors answers without making them export five spreadsheets.

Stock history, BOM requirements, purchase orders, sales orders, build progress and configurable reports are connected to the same records. Data exports, a documented API and supported extensions let you connect the system to other tools without pretending it is an accounting or enterprise planning replacement.

Estimate the real cost of stock errors and purchasing delays.

Compare avoidable purchasing premiums and write-offs with the managed-service fee. Use costs you can document.

No savings assumed. Enter your own costs and a defensible avoidable share. Implementation fees depend on your organisation requirements. Hardware, integration and taxes are included only if stated in the written proposal. Time released is not treated as payroll savings.

What belongs in the estimate

A useful estimate starts with things you can account for: time spent reconciling counts, avoidable emergency purchases, inventory adjustments and disruption from verified stock shortages. Enter your own figures to compare the cost of continuing the current process with the cost of a managed system. The calculator won't invent stockout frequency or assume that time saved means payroll saved.

External evidence: NIST / Top Labels, $10,000 reported savings

External example: In a published NIST Manufacturing Extension Partnership story, Top Labels addressed inventory management problems with a tailored system. NIST reported $10,000 in savings for that company's project. It was a separate tailored implementation, not a deployment of the RISEC inventory platform, and the figure should not be applied to another factory without analysis. Read the NIST case study.

How migration and onboarding work

You can begin with the spreadsheets or exports you already maintain. We review your part codes, warehouse locations, supplier references and a sample of the BOMs that cause the most difficulty. Next, we agree a data mapping and a deployment scope, configure the environment and reconcile imports before training users. A clean data foundation matters more than an impressive-looking empty dashboard.

Check the operational limits before replacing your stock system.

Accounting, connectivity, migration and data access are part of the scope discussion.

What this does not do:

The standard inventory deployment is not a financial general ledger, advanced production scheduler, full MES or guaranteed offline warehouse application. If finance, finite-capacity planning or live equipment feedback are requirements, we will assess Manufacturing ERP or Manufacturing Execution System instead of disguising a gap as a feature.

Will this replace our accounting package?

No. Inventory Management is focused on parts, stock, purchasing and production builds. We can review integration options, or discuss Manufacturing ERP if your accounting and production data must live in one application.

Can we track individual finished machines?

The underlying system supports serialized stock and manufacturing histories. We'll test your desired serial-number and material genealogy workflow using sample records.

Can we migrate large or inconsistent BOMs?

Potentially, but the work depends on the files and the rules you currently use for part identity, revisions and substitutes. We assess those before quoting the migration.

What if our warehouse is offline?

The managed web deployment requires connectivity for its normal workflows. An offline-capable operating process would be a separately assessed requirement.

Who can export our data?

The customer agreement specifies access, export, backup, retention and termination handling. We demonstrate supported exports before go-live.

See your own BOM and inventory problem in a live walkthrough.

Bring one representative assembly, one purchasing problem or one inventory discrepancy. We'll show how the system handles it and explain what a managed deployment would involve.
