What closing a gap looks like

Six concept apps showing the kind of focused tools we design and build around ERP, inventory, accounting and e-commerce systems. Each starts with one clearly defined gap.

Concept designs for illustration. Company names, people and figures are fictitious.

Concept 01 · Mobile app

Goods-in at the dock

For a fictitious business: Brightwell Packaging

The gap

Deliveries were checked against paper purchase orders, then re-keyed into Unleashed at the end of the day. Discrepancies surfaced days later.

The app

A phone app for the warehouse team: scan the delivery note, confirm quantities line by line, photograph damage and post the receipt straight to Unleashed.

  • Stock is available to sell as soon as it's received
  • Short and damaged deliveries are flagged with photos
  • No end-of-day re-keying

Concept 02 · Web app

Shopify to Sage order hub

For a fictitious business: Fenwick & Rye

The gap

Online orders from Shopify were copied into Sage by hand each morning. Stock shortfalls and pricing errors were found after customers had paid.

The app

A sync hub that brings Shopify orders into Sage automatically, checks stock and pricing on the way, and holds anything unusual for a person to review.

  • Orders flow into Sage without manual entry
  • Exceptions are caught before fulfilment
  • One clear view of sync status

Concept 03 · Mobile app

Purchase approvals on the go

For a fictitious business: Northgate Facilities Group

The gap

Purchase requests were approved through long email chains. Budget holders couldn't see what was already committed, and nothing was recorded consistently.

The app

Requests are raised in one place, routed to the right approver by value and cost centre, and approved from a phone with remaining budget shown alongside.

  • Approvals in minutes, not days
  • Budget visible at the point of decision
  • A complete audit trail for every purchase

Concept 04 · Mobile app

Digital job sheets for engineers

For a fictitious business: Castleford Heating Services

The gap

Engineers completed paper job sheets that came back to the office days later, delaying invoices and losing details of parts used.

The app

Engineers see their jobs, complete a checklist, record parts and capture the customer's signature on site. The invoice is drafted in Xero as the job closes.

  • Invoices raised the same day the work is done
  • Parts used are recorded accurately
  • Signed proof of completion on every job

Concept 05 · Portal

Self-service trade portal

For a fictitious business: Hollins & Carr

The gap

Trade customers phoned and emailed to ask where their orders were and to request copies of invoices, taking up hours of the sales team's week.

The app

A secure portal where customers track open orders, download invoices and reorder favourites, with live data drawn from Sage and Unleashed.

  • Customers answer their own order questions
  • Invoices available any time
  • Sales team time freed for selling

Concept 06 · Dashboard

Stock reorder planner

For a fictitious business: Oakmere Outdoor

The gap

Reordering relied on a weekly spreadsheet export. Fast sellers on Shopify ran out while slow lines were over-ordered.

The app

A planner that combines Shopify sales velocity with Unleashed stock and lead times, suggests reorder quantities and creates draft purchase orders in one click.

  • Reorder decisions based on live sales
  • Draft POs created in Unleashed automatically
  • Fewer stock-outs on best sellers
