Construction supply is project work wearing a distribution costume. Materials are ordered against a project, delivered to a site on a date that keeps moving, and every batch has to arrive with its certificate. BizBloqs connects project demand to warehouse reality, so the crew on site is never waiting for material that is sitting on a yard twenty kilometres away.
Materials are reserved against a project and a phase from the moment they are ordered. Availability is judged against real project demand rather than a single warehouse total, so one site cannot quietly consume another site's steel.
Call-off deliveries are planned against the site schedule. When the schedule moves — and it does — the reservation moves with it instead of being reworked by hand.
Project managers see committed, in-transit and delivered quantities in one place, which is usually the first time the office and the site agree on the same number.
Mill certificates, CE declarations and test reports are held against the batch and travel with the delivery, so the paperwork arrives with the pallet rather than a week later by email.
Long, heavy and awkward goods are handled with dimension-aware locations and load planning, including reverse drop sequencing so the first delivery of the day is the last item loaded.
Returns of surplus material from site are booked back against the project with their condition recorded, so project cost reflects what was actually consumed.
Material is delivered to site and then cannot be accounted for
Stock reserved and issued against a project and a site, so material consumption is visible per job rather than in aggregate
Tools and equipment are issued and never formally returned
Equipment issued against a person and a project with an expected return, and overdue items reported automatically
Call-off orders against a framework are tracked manually
Framework agreements held as remaining entitlement, with each call-off drawn down and visible to both sides
Certificates and declarations of performance are chased per delivery
Product certificates linked to batch and issued automatically with the delivery documentation the site needs
Returns of surplus material are absorbed as loss
Site returns booked back against the project with a condition grade, so surplus becomes recoverable value rather than shrinkage
BizBloqs has implemented and optimized numerous features that are highly relevant to construction supply. We highlighted a few below.
Reserve materials against a project and phase, not just a warehouse total
Plan deliveries against the site schedule and move them when the schedule moves
Mill certificates and declarations held against the batch and shipped with the goods
Dimension-aware locations and load planning for long and heavy items
Book surplus material back to the project with its condition recorded
Consumed, committed and returned material valued per project

When we had extensive logistic requirements beyond the capabilities of our financial solution, BizBloqs shared its expertise to transform Lantaarn’s entire warehouse experience together

We needed a better, more transparent and practical system for our incoming and outgoing product flow. A direct overview in our stock and all our logistics movements was really a must. BizBloqs helped us from the start!
Rik Klein - Sales manager
In addition to a scan procedure with EDI integration, BizBloqs has set up an entire production system for us. Production planning can provide direct instructions and as soon as they are ready, it all arrives in the OMS. This gives us a larger production capacity and a drastic reduction of the picking mistakes in dispatching.
