Key facts at a glance
- Executing 8–12 parallel MEP projects at any given time
- Managing 3,500+ SKUs across warehouses, yard, and sites

Business background
The company is a Qatar based MEP contracting firm executing multiple HVAC, electrical, plumbing and fire system projects simultaneously.
Inventory relied on manual tracking, spreadsheets and informal coordination between procurement, stores and site teams. As project volume increased, this lack of structured control began to impact project timelines, cost accuracy and operational confidence.
The challenge: inventory gaps slowing project execution
- System stock did not match physical stock
- Duplicate item codes for the same materials
- No low-stock or fast-moving alerts
- Overstock and dead stock not visible
- Project-critical materials going out of stock
- Manual GRN quantity mismatches
- No batch, lot or expiry tracking
- Incorrect picking and site issues
- Damaged and expired stock mixed with usable material
- No consolidated view across warehouse, yard and sites
- Yard materials issued without system entry
- No visibility of inventory value vs project usage
