Core modules

Supply Chain Management Software modules

The modules most supply chains start with, all working from the same product, supplier and order records.

Supplier management

Each supplier record holds the UEN, GST status, contacts, price breaks, lead times and certificates, and on-time delivery is scored from every goods receipt automatically.

Demand and supply planning

Forecast demand by product and location, set reorder points and safety stock per warehouse, and let the system draft purchase orders when projected stock dips below them.

Purchasing and purchase orders

Requisitions, approvals and purchase orders run through our Procurement Software, with supplier invoices matched to the order and the goods receipt before anyone approves payment.

Inventory and stock control

Keep one live stock balance per product across warehouses, outlets and goods in transit, valued at landed cost in our Inventory Management Software, with low stock alerts per location.

Warehouse operations

Receiving, putaway, picking, packing and stock counts are scanned on handhelds or phones in our Warehouse Management System, so every carton has a bin location.

Transport and shipment tracking

Inbound shipments are tracked against their purchase orders with expected arrival dates, and outbound deliveries are dispatched, tracked and signed for through our Transport Management System.

Visibility

Digital supply chain visibility software with a control tower view

The control tower puts open purchase orders, stock by location, inbound shipments and customer deliveries on one screen. Each exception, such as a late supplier or a warehouse running short, is listed with the orders it affects and the customers waiting on them.

  • Late supplier shipments flagged against the date each order is needed
  • Stock in transit shown beside stock on hand, by warehouse
  • Order status from purchase to proof of delivery, in one timeline
  • Alerts by email or WhatsApp when an exception needs a decision
  • AI features can answer questions about your own data in plain English

Plan to deliver

Supply chain process automation from plan to delivery

Each stage passes its records to the next without retyping between teams.

  1. 1

    Demand planning

    Forecasts by product and location set reorder points, and planned purchase orders wait for a buyer's approval.

  2. 2

    Sourcing and purchasing

    Approved orders go to the supplier, who confirms quantities and dates in the supplier portal.

  3. 3

    Warehousing and stock

    Goods are scanned in against the purchase order, put away to a bin and added to available stock.

  4. 4

    Delivery and tracking

    Customer orders are picked, loaded and delivered, with proof of delivery closing the order and raising the invoice.

Suppliers and planning

Supply management software for suppliers, lead times and planning

Purchase plans use each supplier's real lead times, taken from past receipts rather than a promise.

Supplier records and scorecards
Contacts, terms, certificates and price agreements on one record, with on-time and in-full delivery scored from every receipt.
Supplier portal
Suppliers confirm orders, update delivery dates, upload delivery orders and invoices, and keep their certificates current.
Demand forecasting
Sales history, seasonal patterns and open customer orders combine into a forecast per product and location for planners to adjust.
Replenishment and reorder planning
Reorder points, safety stock and each supplier's minimum order quantity turn the forecast into draft purchase orders.

Custom build

Custom Supply Chain Management Software built around your rules

Packaged supply chain suites suit businesses whose planning, purchasing and warehouse rules match the product. When yours do not, we build the system around them, starting with what matters most. Where an ERP already runs your finance, Supply Chain Management Software can work beside it rather than replace it.

  • Released in stages, starting with the module your operation needs first
  • Hosted by Episcript or in your own environment
  • Eligible for government grants
What a custom build changes
  • Your reorder rules, approval limits and allocation priorities, not the vendor's defaults
  • Only the modules you need, from purchasing to delivery, added phase by phase
  • Connected to your accounting software, InvoiceNow and your customers' systems
  • AI features scoped to your own planning, purchasing and delivery work
  • New warehouses, suppliers and product lines added as the business grows

Questions

Supply Chain Management Software FAQs

The best Supply Chain Management Software is the one built around how you plan, buy, store and deliver. Packaged suites suit standard processes, and a custom build fits when your allocation, approval or supplier rules keep breaking that standard.

A Supply Chain Management System records and coordinates the flow of goods from suppliers to customers: demand planning, purchasing, inventory, warehousing and delivery, with each order, shipment and stock movement kept on one shared record.

An ERP runs finance and core operations, and a Warehouse Management System runs the work inside the warehouse. Supply Chain Management Software connects suppliers, plans, stock, warehouses and deliveries across sites, and works alongside both.

The AI features we build cover demand forecasts, reading supplier invoices and packing lists, flagging late shipments and unusual prices, and answering delivery enquiries on WhatsApp and email. Each is built in its own phase, with staff approving outputs.

Cost depends on scope: the modules in the first phase, the number of sites, the data to migrate and the systems to connect. We quote after a scoping session and price each phase separately.

Timing follows the first phase you choose. Purchasing and stock control can go live well before planning, warehousing and delivery are added, and we set a schedule once the scope is agreed.

We migrate it for you. Supplier lists, product masters, open purchase orders and opening stock are mapped from your spreadsheets or old system, test-loaded for you to check, then loaded on an agreed cut-off date.

The system connects to Xero, QuickBooks and other accounting software, sends and receives Peppol e-invoices through InvoiceNow, and exchanges orders with customers or carriers through an API. Tell us what you run and we scope each connection.

Our solutions are eligible for government grants, and Supply Chain Management Software is no exception. We explain how the schemes apply to your project and what the agency looks for when you plan the budget.

Episcript can host it as cloud supply chain software, or it can run in your own environment, depending on the agreement. Office staff work in a browser, and drivers and warehouse teams on phones.

Access is set by role and site, so each user sees only the suppliers, prices and documents their job needs. Every change is logged by name, supporting your PDPA obligations alongside your own policies.
