Nottingham and East Midlands firms: orders typed once, stock right everywhere.
The East Midlands makes, stores and ships a great deal of what the UK buys. That means orders, stock and invoices moving between systems all day. We find where that movement costs you money and fix it, with AI where AI is the better answer.
Who we help around Nottingham
Manufacturers and food producers across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire. Distributors and third-party logistics firms around the M1 junctions and East Midlands Airport. Online retailers connecting their shops to stock and accounts.
Their problems look alike. Stock is right in the warehouse and wrong on the website. A big customer wants orders and invoices sent electronically. Someone spends the first hour of each day copying orders from one screen to another.
An hour up the line
Sheffield to Nottingham is about an hour by train or road. We visit at the start to see how orders actually move, and again for training and go-live. In between we work remotely and report each week.
You get the same small team throughout. The people who learn how your business works are the people who build the fix.

Questions
- Do you cover Derby and Leicester as well?
- Yes. Derby is under an hour from Sheffield, and we travel across the East Midlands for site visits and go-live days.
- Can you connect our shop to our warehouse and accounts?
- Yes. We link the shop to the ERP or accounts package, the warehouse and any marketplaces, so an order is typed once and stock and prices match everywhere.
- What if a customer insists on EDI?
- We have set up EDI for suppliers to national merchants and retailers, including TRADACOMS, and we work with EDIFACT and other formats.
- Is AI worth it for a business our size?
- Often the first saving is in the systems and data around the AI, and fixing those is our job as well. The scope prices each piece and says which ones pay.
How many times is each order typed?
If the answer is more than once, a free call is where we work out what that costs and what it takes to stop.
