Why It Matters

High SKU counts and fast distribution outrun a spreadsheet fast

Hundreds of SKUs, rolling promotions and multiple distribution tiers are hard to track by hand. Tracking that flow in one connected system keeps stock, schemes and dispatch visible.

High-SKU Production Reality

Production planning that keeps pace with SKU count and promotions

Running hundreds of SKUs against changing promotions means the production plan has to shift constantly. We build the tracking that keeps the plan matched to actual orders and scheme commitments, not a static schedule.

  • Production plan matched to actual SKU demand.
  • Promotion volumes tracked against the plan.
  • Plan changes visible without a manual rebuild.

One System, Not Three

ERP, custom software and AI working off the same stock data

Stock and scheme data connects to the ERP you already run, so production, warehouse and distributor levels stay in sync, while AI flags SKUs running low or batches approaching expiry before they turn into a stockout or a write-off.

  • Stock data connected to your existing ERP.
  • AI flags low stock and ageing batches early.
  • One team builds and supports all three layers.

FAQ

FMCG Manufacturing, Answered

What does TCB Infotech do for FMCG manufacturers?
We connect your ERP, build the custom software your production planning and distribution tracking needs, and add AI where it removes manual stock reconciliation work, scoped around high SKU counts and fast distribution cycles.
Does this replace our existing ERP?
No. The system connects to your existing ERP and accounting setup rather than replacing it. We build the stock, scheme and distribution tracking your process needs and link that data back to the ERP you already run.
How does the system handle batch and expiry tracking for quality holds?
Stock is tracked by batch and expiry at every tier, from production through warehouse and distributor. If a batch needs to be held or pulled, the system shows exactly where that batch sits across your stock, so your team can act on it. It flags the data. Your team makes the call.
How long does an FMCG engagement usually take?
Most engagements move from process mapping to a working pilot within a few months. Scope and timeline are confirmed after we walk your production and distribution process with you.
What support do we get after go-live?
The same team that builds the system stays available for support and changes as your SKU range, promotions or distribution network evolve.
Can ERP integration, custom software and AI be combined into one engagement?
Yes. Most FMCG engagements combine ERP integration, a piece of custom software for production or distribution tracking, and AI where it removes manual demand or stock work, scoped as one project.

How We Build Distribution-Tier Stock Tracking

From a production plan to a dispatch record. Here is how production, warehouse, distributor and trade scheme tracking come together, connected to your ERP.

Core Process

Production planning, stock visibility and ERP connection, in that order

High-SKU Production Planning

A production plan tracked against actual SKU and order demand

The production plan is tracked against real order and promotion volumes across your full SKU range, instead of a fixed schedule that has to be manually reworked every time a scheme changes.

  • Plan tracked against live order volumes.
  • Promotion commitments factored into the schedule.
  • Changes visible without a manual rebuild.

Warehouse & Distributor Visibility

Stock visible across every tier, not a phone call away

Warehouse and distributor stock levels are tracked in one view by SKU and batch, so a stockout or an excess position at any tier is visible before it becomes a dispute or a lost sale.

  • Stock levels visible by SKU and tier.
  • Batch and expiry tracked at every level.
  • No waiting on a distributor's manual count.

Trade Scheme & Dispatch Tracking

Dispatch and promotions tracked against your ERP

Dispatch records and trade scheme commitments connect to the ERP you already run, so what was promised on a scheme and what actually shipped stay reconciled without a manual comparison.

  • Dispatch data connected to your existing ERP.
  • Scheme commitments matched to actual shipments.
  • Discrepancies flagged for review, not buried.
