Foodservice

Keep purchasing, inventory, and fulfillment on track.

ToolPlex connects inventory, purchasing, orders, warehouses, locations, and finance data. We build planning, reporting, and operations software for foodservice companies and distributors.

The problem

Small delays become waste, shortages, and missed deliveries.

Stock on hand is not always stock available

Product may be at another warehouse, already allocated to an order, awaiting release, or too close to expiry for the intended use.

Purchasing has to balance freshness and service

Buy too little and locations run short. Buy too much and shelf life, cold storage, and working capital become the problem.

One order crosses several handoffs

Warehouse release, picking, packing, dispatch, delivery, and receiving each create a document or status that has to agree with the rest.

Storage and delivery bills are hard to check

Cold-storage, handling, delivery, and other service charges are difficult to verify without a reliable record of what moved and when.

Connects to your systems

Follow stock and orders from purchase to delivery.

What ToolPlex can do

Support planning and operations across the foodservice business.

Demand and purchasing

Plan purchases using sales or order demand, stock on hand, supplier lead times, seasonality, and location requirements.

Inventory and perishables

See availability across warehouses or locations and flag shortages, excess stock, aging inventory, and transfer opportunities.

Orders and fulfillment

Follow customer or location orders through allocation, picking, shipment, and delivery, with the next action made clear.

Finance and operating reports

Connect invoices, receivables, supplier activity, location performance, and recurring reports to the operational data behind them.

How projects grow

Start with the most pressing issue. Add more from there.

An order and inventory project can establish reliable product, warehouse, and customer data. That foundation can later support demand planning, purchasing, fulfillment, receivables, or location reporting.

CONNECTED COMPANY DATA
Fig. 2 — Start with one part and add others using the same connected data.

We start with a clear need and add related work only when you are ready and your data can support it.

After launch

Approved corrections become part of the system.

When your team confirms a name, mapping, exception, or business rule, ToolPlex applies it the next time.

Your rules stay in the system

ToolPlex records approved terms, exceptions, and business rules so they are applied consistently the next time.

Access based on role

Each person sees only the data and actions their job requires.

A record of every change

Approved changes are logged, including what changed, when, and who approved it.

Data privacy

Built around your security requirements.

Your company gets a separate environment in the deployment region you choose. We do not pool your data or use it to train shared models. We can also support stricter data-hosting requirements when needed.

A separate environment for each client

Your company runs in its own environment. Data and encryption keys are not shared with another client.

Choose the deployment region

Select a deployment region that meets your company's data and procurement requirements.

Keep data in your systems when possible

ToolPlex connects to existing systems instead of requiring a separate copy of everything. Client data is not used to train shared models.

Stricter hosting requirements

We can accommodate stricter data-hosting requirements when needed.
