Cube Systems supports St Albans, Watford and Stevenage with implementation, data migration and UK-based support. Talk to us on 01234 672 617. **URL:** https://cubesystems.co.uk/software/stock-control-software/hertfordshire We work with businesses right across Hertfordshire, and the pattern is a familiar one: a system that was right when it was bought, extended past the point of sense, and now propped up by spreadsheets nobody wants to own. Stock Control is the part of that most people want to fix first. ## Details - **Solution:** Stock Control Software - **Platform:** CubeERP (https://cubesystems.co.uk/cube-erp) - **Product site:** https://cubeerp.co.uk - **Location:** Hertfordshire - **Distance from our Olney office:** 34 miles - well within our regular travel radius from Olney - **Postcode districts:** AL, WD, SG, HP1, HP2, HP3 - **Also known as:** Inventory management software, Stock management system, Inventory control software, Stock tracking software, Warehouse stock software ## Coverage Our Hertfordshire coverage includes St Albans, Watford, Stevenage, Hemel Hempstead, Welwyn Garden City and Hatfield, and the AL, WD, SG, HP1 and HP2 postcode districts. If you are in Hertfordshire and not on that list, we almost certainly still cover you, so ask. ## What is included - **Multi-location and bin level:** Track stock across warehouses, vans, consignment locations and individual bins - with transfers, in-transit visibility and location-level minimum levels. - **Barcode scanning on mobile:** Goods-in, put-away, picking, transfers and stock takes done by scanning on a phone or rugged handheld. No paperwork to transcribe, no transcription errors. - **Batch and serial traceability:** Full forward and backward traceability - from the goods-in delivery note through production to the customer who received it. Recall scope in seconds, not days. - **Free, allocated and on order:** The three numbers that actually matter, shown wherever someone might promise stock to a customer - quote, order entry and the trade counter. - **Perpetual counting:** Rolling cycle counts by value, movement or location keep accuracy high without closing the warehouse for an annual stock take. - **Reorder intelligence:** Minimum and maximum levels, economic order quantities, lead-time-aware reorder suggestions and slow-moving stock reporting so cash stops sitting on a shelf. ## Real-world use cases ### Stock accuracy below 80% **Scenario:** A wholesaler counted stock annually and adjusted the difference to a write-off account. By the middle of the year, picking lists were routinely wrong and the warehouse team had stopped trusting the system entirely. **Outcome:** Scanning at every touchpoint plus weekly cycle counting on high-value lines brought accuracy above 99% within a quarter. The annual stock take now takes an afternoon and confirms what the system already said. ### Traceability for an audit **Scenario:** A food-sector packer needed to prove batch traceability for a certification audit. The evidence existed, but only across delivery notes in a filing cabinet and a spreadsheet maintained by one person. **Outcome:** Batch numbers are captured at goods-in and carried through production to despatch. Producing a full traceability report for any batch, in either direction, now takes under a minute. ### Too much cash on the shelf **Scenario:** A distributor had over £400,000 of stock, a chunk of which had not moved in two years, while regularly running out of its twenty fastest-selling lines. **Outcome:** Movement analysis identified the dead lines for clearance, and lead-time-aware reorder points were set on the fast movers. Stockouts on core lines dropped sharply while total stock value came down. ## Figures - **99%+** Stock accuracy is a realistic target with scanning - **Any device** Scanning runs on the phones you already have - **Both ways** Batch traceability, forwards and backwards ## Frequently asked questions **Do we need special barcode hardware?** No. The scanning interface runs in a browser on a standard Android or iOS phone and uses the camera. If your warehouse is busy enough to justify rugged handhelds we will happily specify them, but you can start with the phones people already carry. **Can it handle batch and serial numbers together?** Yes. Items can be tracked by batch, by serial number, by both, or by neither - configured per product. Traceability reporting works forwards from a goods-in receipt and backwards from a customer despatch. **What about stock held on vans or at customer sites?** Vans, consignment stock and customer-held stock are all modelled as locations. Engineers book parts out from van stock on the job, which both consumes the stock and adds the part to the job cost. **Will it integrate with our e-commerce site?** Yes. Stock levels can be published to a webshop via the REST API or a webhook on every movement, so the site reflects real availability rather than a figure uploaded overnight. ## Related solutions - **Warehouse Management Software** - Directed put-away, wave and batch picking, packing verification, carrier integration and despatch - warehouse management built into the same system as your orders. https://cubesystems.co.uk/software/warehouse-management-software/hertfordshire - **ERP Software** - One system for quotes, orders, stock, production, purchasing and invoicing - built in the UK for growing businesses. https://cubesystems.co.uk/software/erp-software/hertfordshire - **Manufacturing Software** - Bills of materials, works orders, routings, capacity planning and job costing - manufacturing software that reflects what actually happened on the floor. https://cubesystems.co.uk/software/manufacturing-software/hertfordshire - **Purchase Order Software** - Requisitions, approval chains, purchase orders raised from real demand, goods-in booking and three-way matching - purchasing with a paper trail. https://cubesystems.co.uk/software/purchase-order-software/hertfordshire ## Contact - **Company:** Cube Systems Limited (company number 17220899, ICO registration number ZC216972) - **Email:** hello@cubesystems.co.uk - **Sales:** sales@cubesystems.co.uk - **Support:** support@cubesystems.co.uk - **Telephone:** 01234 672 617 (+441234672617) - **Address:** Unit 11, Olney Business Park, Osier Way, Olney, Buckinghamshire, MK46 5FP - **Opening hours:** Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 17:30 - **Part of:** Crushed Ice Group (https://crushedicegroup.co.uk)
