02 / The challenge

Growth had outpaced the old ways of working.

  • Ad hoc warehouse stock without structured receipt, put-away or fulfilment
  • Sales lacked available-stock visibility, causing missed opportunities and delays
  • Purchasing lacked inbound-stock and demand visibility
  • Pipeline and forecasting relied on error-prone spreadsheets
  • Finance depended on manual updates to start invoicing and payments
03 / The solution

One integrated, scalable digital foundation.

Web Control deployed NetSuite Manufacturing Premium ERP and WMS, connecting warehouse operations, finance, sales and customer lifecycle management.

Implementation highlights

  • Warehouse automation using bin logic and wave release
  • Unified finance, including customised proforma workflows
  • Real-time inventory, serial traceability and landed-cost visibility
  • End-to-end MRP for purchasing and special-order item control
  • Role-based dashboards for operations, finance, technical and purchasing
  • NetSuite CRM and marketing tools for lead and customer lifecycle management
04 / The results

Live stock, proactive purchasing, aligned finance.

  • Live stock insight improved order accuracy and responsiveness
  • MRP-guided planning made purchasing more proactive
  • Finance aligned with fulfilment for timely invoicing and payment
  • Operational efficiency and customer confidence improved
  • Less manual intervention freed teams for value-added work

Looking ahead

A new subsidiary go-live is planned for 2026, followed by a new Field Services Module.

In their words
Implementation Project

I would say that we are so happy with how the whole implementation / training process has gone overall. The support from the Web Control team (especially Kat who has gone above and beyond) has been invaluable especially to myself as team lead. It has been a very seamless transfer from the old system to the new with very little noise made regarding the changes from the team here at NHC.
