Cold Storage ERP

Centralized token, pocket, party ledger, billing, delivery, and reporting workflows for real storage operations.

ERP Operations Workflow Automation Reporting System Party Ledger Inventory Logistics

The Problem

Before the implementation, the client faced significant operational friction. Stock tracking was handled via fragmented manual entries, leading to frequent billing confusion and a lack of real-time visibility into available storage pockets.

Reconciling party ledgers with physical stock movement was a major pain point, often requiring hours of manual audit to resolve simple delivery discrepancies.

The Reality on the Ground

This wasn't just a software design challenge; it was a battle against physical operational complexity. Managing multiple storage pockets across vast facilities while maintaining precise party-wise stock tracking requires a system that reflects the messy reality of physical movement.

PHYSICAL_LOGIC

Multiple Storage Locations

Tracking stock across multiple physical storage locations with varying accessibility and capacity rules.

ENTITY_MANAGEMENT

Party-Wise Tracking

Ensuring every item is accurately tied to a specific party ledger for billing and release.

What Made It Difficult

{ }

Fragmented Processes

Connecting paper-based token handling with digital stock assignments.

{ }

Billing Dependencies

Automating complex billing cycles that depend on both duration and pocket volume.

{ }

Audit Visibility

Creating a traceable audit trail for every stock movement and delivery release.

{ }

Role-Based Access

Defining clear operational boundaries for gate operators, accountants, and managers.

What We Built

RIGG designed and deployed a custom ERP system that functions as a single source of truth for the entire facility. The system integrates the token workflow directly into the pocket allocation and party ledger logic, ensuring that no stock moves without a verified digital record.

JOURNEY // DELIVERY_FLOW

How the System Took Shape

01

Workflow Discovery

Shadowing facility operators to map the unwritten rules of token handling and delivery.

02

Operational Mapping

Digitalizing the physical storage layout into a logical pocket-management module.

03

Module Design

Prototyping the Party Ledger and Billing engines to handle complex dependencies.

04

ERP Build

High-fidelity development of the core system architecture using Spring Boot and Vue.

05

Reporting Layer

Designing operational, financial, and management reports so the business can track stock, billing, delivery, and exceptions.

06

Rollout & Refinement

Deploying the system in practical phases, collecting feedback from real users, and refining workflows for day-to-day use.

Solution Architecture

We structured the ERP around operational movement, financial logic, reporting needs, and role-based control — so the system matched how the business actually worked.

{ }

Operational Core

Token, pocket, delivery, and stock movement workflows connected into one operational layer.

{ }

Financial Logic

Party ledger, billing rules, receivables, adjustments, and transaction history tied to real stock movement.

{ }

Reporting Layer

Management reports, stock visibility, billing summaries, delivery history, and traceable audit records.
