Use cases

Every part of the operation, with the numbers behind it

Production, warehouse, transport, orders and the control tower above them. For each one: the problem, how O360 runs it, the features that do the work, and the KPIs you would measure.

Make360 · MES

Manufacturing execution: from the job floor to the finished-goods warehouse

Your ERP plans production. Make360 runs it — work orders, WIP, quality and batch genealogy on the shop floor, with finished goods handed straight to Stock360.

Who it’s for

  • Discrete and process manufacturers
  • Textile, FMCG, chemicals and packaging plants
  • Plants running MRP in the ERP but tracking the floor on paper

The problem today

  • WIP is invisible between stages, so nobody knows what is really on the floor until the shift ends.
  • Scrap and rework are recorded late, or not at all, so the root cause is never found.
  • Batch genealogy is reconstructed from paper when a customer or auditor asks for it.
  • Finished goods leave the line and are re-keyed into a separate warehouse system.

How O360 runs it

  1. 01
    Release

    Work orders arrive from the ERP plan with BOM and routing attached.

  2. 02
    Issue

    Raw material is issued from Stock360 against the work order, batch by batch.

  3. 03
    Execute

    Operators work through configured stages on the job floor; WIP updates live.

  4. 04
    Check

    Quality checkpoints gate each stage; scrap and rework are captured at source.

  5. 05
    Hand off

    Finished batches move to Stock360 with full genealogy, and output posts back to the ERP.

Warehouse management: a live ledger that matches the shelf

Bin-level control from dock to dispatch. Directed putaway, FEFO enforced at the scanner, and loading sheets generated from the dispatch itself.

Who it’s for

  • Distributors and FMCG networks
  • Manufacturers with finished-goods warehouses
  • 3PLs running several clients in one building
  • Expiry-sensitive stock: food, pharma, lubricants

The problem today

  • The ERP says the stock exists; the floor cannot find it.
  • Expiry is managed by memory, so old batches sit while new ones ship.
  • Loading sheets are built in Excel every morning and the dock becomes the bottleneck.
  • Cycle counts stop the operation, and variances are adjusted without a reason.

How O360 runs it

  1. 01
    Receive

    GRN against the PO or ASN, with quality checks before stock is available.

  2. 02
    Put away

    Rule-directed putaway tasks go to the scanner; every bin is known.

  3. 03
    Control

    FEFO, FIFO or LIFO by item class; batch, lot, serial and expiry tracked with alerts.

  4. 04
    Pick and verify

    Wave, batch or cluster picking with scan-to-batch verification at pick and load.

  5. 05
    Dispatch

    Loading sheets and GDNs generate automatically, and the movement posts back to the ERP.

Transportation management: every trip, load and proof of delivery in one place

Plan loads, assign vehicles and drivers, control the gate, track shipments across road, sea and air, and capture proof of delivery — with landed cost visible on every shipment.

Who it’s for

  • Manufacturers and distributors running their own or contracted fleets
  • 3PLs managing carriers for clients
  • Importers and exporters moving goods across modes

The problem today

  • Dispatch runs on phone calls and WhatsApp, so status is always someone else’s answer.
  • Trucks wait at the gate and the customer’s dock, and detention is never measured.
  • Proof of delivery comes back on paper days later, delaying invoicing and causing disputes.
  • Freight bills are paid without being reconciled against what actually moved.

How O360 runs it

  1. 01
    Plan

    Orders are grouped into loads; vehicles, drivers and carriers are assigned.

  2. 02
    Load

    Automated loading sheets, scan-to-batch at the dock, gate-in and gate-out recorded.

  3. 03
    Track

    Milestones and ETA alerts across road, sea and air legs.

  4. 04
    Deliver

    Proof of delivery captured at the point of delivery.

  5. 05
    Settle

    Freight and landed cost reconciled per shipment; dispatch documents post to the ERP.

Smart Orders · OMS

Order management: one view of every order, from capture to cash

Capture sales and purchase orders, allocate them against stock that is actually pickable, hand them to the warehouse and transport, and trigger invoicing from what really happened.

Who it’s for

  • Distributors with high order volumes
  • Manufacturers selling through dealers and retail chains
  • 3PLs that need order status for their clients

The problem today

  • Orders are promised against ERP stock that is not on the shelf.
  • Customer service chases the warehouse and the transporter for every status question.
  • Invoices wait for paperwork, so cash arrives later than it should.
  • Returns and credit notes are handled outside the system and never reconcile.

How O360 runs it

  1. 01
    Capture

    Orders arrive from every channel with validation, credit and approval rules.

  2. 02
    Allocate

    Stock is allocated against live, pickable inventory; back-orders are managed, not forgotten.

  3. 03
    Fulfil

    Orders hand off to Stock360 for picking and Transit360 for delivery.

  4. 04
    Track

    Live order, stock and shipping status for your team and your customer.

  5. 05
    Settle

    Invoicing triggers on dispatch or delivery; returns and credit notes close the loop.

Control Tower + OAi

Control tower: run every site by exception, not by phone call

One live view across every site, module and role. OAi flags the exceptions that matter, so managers act on problems instead of chasing status.

Who it’s for

  • Multi-site and multi-country operations
  • COOs and supply chain heads
  • Groups running several companies on one platform

The problem today

  • Each site reports in its own spreadsheet, a day late.
  • Managers spend hours a week calling sites for status.
  • SLA misses are discovered when the customer complains.
  • Board KPIs are assembled by hand at month end.

How O360 runs it

  1. 01
    Connect

    Every site and module streams into one live data model.

  2. 02
    Watch

    Role-based dashboards and KPIs, with drill-down to the transaction.

  3. 03
    Detect

    Thresholds, SLA alerts and OAi anomaly detection raise exceptions automatically.

  4. 04
    Act

    Exceptions are assigned, escalated and tracked to resolution.

  5. 05
    Report

    Scheduled reports and board-ready KPI packs, with no manual assembly.

By industry

The same platform, configured to six operating realities.

Each one is a configuration of the modules above, not a custom build.

Manufacturing · FMCG

From production line to loaded truck, one flow

The reality: finished goods leave the line and vanish into a warehouse run on paper. Batches mix, expiry slips, and dispatch is a daily negotiation.

Make360 hands finished batches directly to Stock360 with full genealogy. FEFO is enforced at the scanner, loading sheets generate automatically, and the GDN posts back to the ERP on dispatch.

Batch traceability 100%FEFO enforced at scanZero manual loading sheets
3PL · Multi-client

Run twelve clients in one warehouse without mixing a single unit

The reality: each client wants their own rules, reports, and billing — and your team is running it all on parallel spreadsheets.

Client-segregated inventory, per-client strategies and SLAs, and role-based portals so each customer sees only their stock — while you run one operation with per-client billing data captured automatically.

Per-client visibilitySLA reporting built-inBilling-grade activity data
Energy · Lubricants distribution

Bulk and packaged stock, depots apart, one ledger

The reality: packaged lubricants across regional depots, batch-sensitive, with dispatch documentation that finance and the principal both audit.

Stock360 manages batch and bin integrity per depot; Transit360 plans loads and generates dispatch documents; ERP integration posts GDNs automatically — proven in production against Oracle Fusion.

Depot-level accuracyAuditable dispatch docsLive ERP posting
Pharma · Distribution

Expiry-critical distribution that passes every audit

The reality: regulators and principals demand batch-level traceability and strict FEFO — a single expired dispatch is a contract risk.

Enforced FEFO with expiry alerts, batch genealogy from receipt to customer, scan-verified picking, and a complete audit trail on every movement, ready for inspection.

Strict FEFO complianceRecall-ready traceabilityInspection-grade audit trail
Distribution · National coverage

High-velocity dispatch across a national route network

The reality: thousands of order lines a day, dense routes, and a dock that becomes the bottleneck every single morning.

Wave picking tuned to route departure times, scan-to-batch at the dock, automated loading sheets per vehicle, and Control Tower showing every route's status live.

Dock dwell downOn-time dispatch upEvery route visible live
Global trade

Multi-modal shipments with landed cost you can actually see

The reality: goods cross borders through three carriers and two modes, and nobody can say what a shipment truly cost until months later.

Transit360 tracks every leg across air, sea, and land with milestone alerts; landed costs accumulate per shipment in real time; Smart Orders ties it all back to the customer order.
