ERP software development for supply chains and logistics operators

Many businesses do not need a giant ERP suite. They need orders, stock, deliveries and invoicing to agree with each other, and they need the systems they already own to exchange data without someone re-typing it. ERP software development, done well, is about the flow between departments: sales to warehouse, warehouse to driver, driver to finance. We build the operational core and connect it to the ERP and logistics systems already in place.

DistroOps came from that problem. Distribution networks ran on phone calls and paper orders, so we built a platform with a field-rep app for order booking, a retailer ordering app, a driver delivery app, tenant portals with live stock and route views, and ERP and logistics backend integrations. AtUrHome tackles a Saudi version: a micro-warehouse network spread across residential neighbourhoods in Riyadh, with a platform managing distribution and delivery, and direct courier-to-customer communication and live tracking. The company portal, admin portal and driver app are separate surfaces on one Laravel system, which is how most operational platforms are best organised.

Who this is for

  • Distributors, wholesalers and logistics operators in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf running on paper, calls and spreadsheets
  • Companies that already own an ERP but have no usable app for reps, drivers or retailers
  • Operations directors who need live visibility of orders, stock and deliveries
  • Businesses planning a phased move from disconnected tools to one integrated system

What we build

  • Order management from field booking or retailer self-ordering through to delivery
  • Stock and warehouse views, including multi-location structures such as micro-warehouses
  • Route, driver and delivery tracking with live status for dispatchers and customers
  • Integrations that sync products, prices, customers and invoices with your existing ERP
  • Dashboards for management on orders, stock movement and field activity
  • Arabic and English interfaces with role-based access for each department

How the work runs

  1. Process and systems auditWe map how an order travels today and list every system it touches. This tells us what to build, what to integrate and what to leave alone.
  2. Integration designData ownership is agreed per entity: which system holds products, prices, customers and invoices. Clear rules here prevent duplicate records later.
  3. Phased rolloutWe go live by department or region, not everywhere at once. Each phase is trained, measured and corrected before the next begins.
  4. Sync monitoringWebhook and sync health are monitored after launch, so a failed push to the ERP is spotted and fixed rather than found at month end.

Pricing model

ERP-style projects are best scoped in phases. A first phase might cover ordering, stock visibility and one mobile app, which fits a focused fixed-scope build of roughly 8-14 weeks. Later phases add warehouses, further departments or deeper finance integration, either as further fixed scopes or under a build and run retainer. Larger operators with their own product team can take a dedicated team with monthly per-seat billing.

Cost is driven mainly by the number of departments and roles involved, the number of apps (field, retailer and driver apps are separate builds), the state and documentation of the ERP you must integrate with, and the volume of historical data to migrate. Local tax and e-invoicing rules in Saudi Arabia change, so confirm current requirements with your accountant or adviser before design is fixed; we build the integration points and can adapt as rules are clarified. A free scoping call turns this into a written estimate, including a phase plan you can show your own management or board before you commit. We also separate one-off build cost from recurring costs such as hosting and map services, so your finance team can plan both.

Questions buyers ask

Do you replace our ERP or work alongside it?
Usually alongside. We build the operational layer your people use, such as ordering, delivery and dashboards, and integrate with the ERP as the system of record for finance. Replacing a core ERP is a different project, and we will tell you if that is what you really need.
Can the system work in Arabic?
Yes. We build bilingual interfaces in Arabic and English, including right-to-left layouts, and have delivered a live logistics platform in Saudi Arabia. Content such as product names and addresses is stored so both languages can be supported, and we agree early which fields need translation and who will supply the Arabic copy.
How do you roll out without disrupting daily operations?
In phases. We pilot with one team or region, run alongside the old process briefly, fix what the pilot reveals, then widen. This is slower on paper but much safer for a business that cannot stop taking orders.
Where is the data hosted?
We deploy on AWS and can discuss region options with you, as we did when hosting a platform in the AWS Sydney region for an Australian client. If you have data residency requirements, confirm the current rules that apply to your sector and tell us early, so hosting can be chosen to match.
