Case study / Lumberyard inventory software

Keep track of stock, right where the work happens.

YardStock lets lumberyard crews scan a label, record material in or out, and get back to work. Managers can see stock levels and the history of each change.

01 / Problem

The need

Inventory changes as material moves around a yard. Paper notes and delayed office updates make it difficult to know what is available and who changed a count.

02 / Our approach

What we built

We designed a phone-friendly workflow around scanning a label, choosing an action, and entering a quantity. Managers get a separate view for products, locations, people, and stock history.

03 / What we built

How it works

A crew member scans or searches for a product, records stock coming in or going out, or enters a count. Pending stock changes stay on the device during a connection gap and sync when service returns.
