Argos designed a platform that replaced scattered data and manual handoffs with a connected workflow for operations teams and their clients.

Every transaction changes the operating picture. Receiving, inventory, orders, restocking, contracts, and invoices need to reconcile around the same client record.

Project overview

Give operations one place to understand stock, commitments, and next actions.

Manual order tracking, disconnected inventory records, and separate invoicing and contract processes made it difficult to operate accurately as demand grew.

Operating problem

Inventory accuracy depended on the handoffs around it.

Stock levels alone were not enough. The system also needed to represent inbound goods, client orders, restocking, contracts, invoices, and current status.

  1. 01

    Manual processes

    Order tracking and inventory management relied on labor-intensive workflows that were prone to error.

  2. 02

    Disconnected automation

    Invoicing, restocking, contract management, and other recurring actions required separate manual work.

  3. 03

    Inbound inventory gaps

    The team lacked a consistent process for recording, reconciling, and managing stock received from clients.

  4. 04

    Scattered records

    Fragmented data made contracts, orders, stock levels, and client status difficult to understand together.

01

Receive and reconcile

Record incoming client inventory and reconcile it with the existing stock record.

Inbound
02

Control inventory

Track stock by client, monitor depletion, and trigger restocking notifications.

Stock
03

Process fulfillment

Move client orders through processing, fulfillment, progress updates, and completion.

Orders
04

Invoice and report

Use order and contract data to support invoicing, client communication, and operational reporting.

Delivered capabilities

One record spanning stock movement and commercial operations.

The system joins physical inventory workflows with client, contract, billing, and reporting responsibilities.

  1. 01

    Multi-client inventory

    Track inventory levels, inbound and outbound stock, depletion, and restocking for each client.

  2. 02

    Order fulfillment workflow

    Coordinate processing, fulfillment, progress updates, completion, and restocking actions.

  3. 03

    Inbound inventory processing

    Record client-supplied inventory and reconcile received stock with the current system record.

  4. 04

    Contracts and invoicing

    Centralize contract records and generate invoices using the relevant order data.

  5. 05

    Client and operations dashboards

    Provide visibility into inventory usage, order history, current status, and operational activity.

  6. 06

    Scalable architecture

    Support growing client volume and peak periods without returning to fragmented manual processes.

Reported outcomes

Fewer manual steps and a more reliable operating record.

The supplied case summary reports improvements in efficiency, accuracy, invoicing, turnaround time, and the ability to support increased demand.

  1. 01

    More than 50% less manual effort

    Automated workflows reportedly reduced recurring manual work by over half.
