Van Inventory Re-Invented

BML designed and built a market leading digital solution, a B2B app for van stock inventory management. It allowed local authorities and housing association customers to check stock and place orders on the go. Avail integrated with customers own systems to enable self-serve account management and reordering.​

​​

In a bid to sign up more contracts with local authorities and housing associations, Jewson identified an opportunity to create a solution that would make them stand out in competitive markets. Back-office operational constraints, including high-effort reorder sales processes, complex stock control, and intricate demand and distribution planning, hindered efficiency. The solution was to develop a low code platform; accelerating delivery and minimising customer development time. We engaged customers and the supply chain to define functionality and ideal use-cases, designing a solution that aligned with their ways of working. ​
