Work
I co-own a regional distributor. Every system below runs there every week.
Billing
What it replaced: reading supplier invoice PDFs and building billing reports by hand.
What it does now: reads each week's invoice PDFs, pulls out every order, applies the billing rules, totals each account and produces a finished billing report.
2–3 hours savedper week
Orders
What it replaced: collecting store orders from PDFs and texts into one supplier order.
What it does now: reads the store orders as they arrive, including scanned forms and photographed texts, asks about anything entered by hand, and fills in the weekly order sheet.
Over 50% fasterand more accurate
Delivery
What it replaced: planning daily delivery routes on paper.
What it does now: takes the day's deliveries for a specific run and optimizes the route for time and fuel efficiency, while keeping customers informed by text.
Result: over $400 in cost savings per month.
Warehouse
What it does now: tracks the movement and slot placement of commercially stored goods, and connects office and warehouse staff from receiving and shipping through to putting an account on hold for non-payment.
Result: saves time and gives a higher degree of accuracy.
The routing and warehouse apps are shown as proof of what I've built for my own business. What I sell is the first two kinds of work: fixed-price workflows with a care plan.
Figures are from my own business.
