IT support for wholesalers
In a wholesaler, when ERP or WMS stops, all of sales stops with it: the warehouse cannot release goods, invoices do not go out, orders pile up. We maintain these systems so they simply work.
A wholesaler lives on the flow of goods and orders, and all of it rests on a warehouse system, a database and connectivity between branches. We run wholesaler IT with an emphasis on continuity and performance: so ERP does not slow down at the peak, data is secured, and integrations with clients and platforms work without interruption.
Challenges in this sector
-
ERP or WMS downtime
A warehouse system outage halts receipts, releases and invoicing at once. Every hour without WMS means orders that do not go out to clients.
-
Database performance
A growing number of items and transactions can choke the database. Slow product searches and document generation slow down the whole warehouse.
-
EDI and e-commerce integrations
Orders from B2B platforms, EDI and shops must reach ERP without manual re-keying. A broken integration means errors in stock levels and delayed deliveries.
-
Multiple warehouses and branches
Distributed locations need reliable connectivity to each other and to HQ. A broken link cuts a branch off from the system and shared stock levels.
-
Backup of sales data
Stock levels, order history and settlements are the heart of the firm. Without tested backup, losing them means chaos in settlements and stocktaking.
-
Ageing server room
A single physical server with no spare capacity is a risk. A failure of one component can stop the system the whole wholesaler works on.
Services we pick for this sector
AI and automation in a wholesaler
AI and automation genuinely take load off a wholesaler where the same work repeats: matching orders, forecasting demand, handling B2B client enquiries and organising product data. That means fewer errors and faster service.
We approach this from the integration side: we connect ERP, WMS, sales platforms and email so data circulates automatically, without manual re-keying. We deploy AI tools on controlled company data, with clear rules on what is and is not allowed, so your commercial data stays on your side.
Wholesalers choose us because we watch exactly what decides sales: that ERP and the warehouse keep working and data is not lost.

Frequently asked questions
Do you maintain ERP and WMS systems?
Yes. We look after the layer that ERP and WMS rest on: servers, databases, performance and backup. We also work with your software vendor so updates and outages are handled from one place.
How do you ensure continuity when a server fails?
We virtualise the environment and design it with spare capacity so a failure of one component does not stop the system. We add monitoring and tested backup with a short recovery time.
Do you help with EDI and e-commerce integrations?
Yes. We connect ERP with B2B platforms, EDI and online shops so orders and stock levels flow automatically, without manual re-keying and errors.
What about connectivity between warehouses and HQ?
We build secure VPN connections between locations and HQ, with link monitoring. That way branches work on shared data and a broken link is visible immediately.
How do you look after database performance?
We monitor load and bottlenecks, match server resources to the size of the database and tidy up the configuration. The goal is for the system not to slow down at the sales peak.
Can you handle a wholesaler with several branches?
Yes. We support distributed firms with multiple warehouses. We standardise hardware and access, link locations into one network and maintain them remotely from one point.
