    The desktop control tower

    Run the floor with the full operation in view.

    Managers can see live work across orders, goods-in, inventory, locations, replenishment, returns, team performance, and despatch. Every queue is actionable, so the dashboard is where work moves—not just where numbers are reported.

    One connected operating layer

    One operational layer for every movement through your warehouse.

    HOC Warehouse connects warehouse staff, managers, stock locations, websites, inventory platforms, and shipping systems in one streamlined workflow. A mobile app guides receiving, picking, packing, putaway, stocktakes, and returns, while a live web dashboard gives managers visibility across orders, inventory, team performance, replenishment, and despatch.

    It turns inventory data into clear, scan-driven warehouse actions—from goods arriving at the door to parcels leaving with the correct label.

    Mobile app / warehouse floor

    Put the next correct action in every team member’s hand.

    The mobile app turns queues and stock data into simple, scan-led tasks. Staff see what to pick, where to find it, what to scan, and what should happen next—without needing to interpret the back-office system.

    Bulk pick

    Group compatible orders into efficient runs rather than walking the same route repeatedly.

    Pick from location

    Direct staff to the right pick face, reserve location, batch, or expiry-controlled stock.

    Scan to verify

    Use barcode checks to confirm the item, location, quantity, packaging, or shipment.

    Stay resilient

    Retain operational state locally and queue supported updates when warehouse connectivity drops.

    Warehouse workflows

    Clear work at every stage.

    Simple enough for the warehouse floor. Detailed enough for operational control.

    01

    Receive accurately

    Process purchase orders from your inventory system as stock arrives, record quantities and batches, flag discrepancies, and create putaway work without re-keying information.

    • Purchase-order receiving
    • Batch and expiry capture
    • Discrepancy reporting
    02

    Know where everything is

    Track products by warehouse location, batch, expiry date, and stock status, with a complete movement history behind every unit.

    • Location-level stock
    • Movement audit trail
    • Batch traceability
    03

    Pick faster

    Guide single or bulk pick runs by warehouse location, with barcode verification, pick-face rules, FEFO allocation, and replenishment alerts at the point of work.

    • Single and bulk picking
    • Location-led pick routes
    • Barcode verification
    04

    Pack and despatch in one flow

    Choose packaging, create labels through a connected carrier, print at the correct workstation, and send shipment status back to your source systems.

    • Packaging selection
    • Carrier label APIs
    • Connected printing
    05

    Stay in control

    Monitor outstanding orders, stock risks, expiry, team activity, reconciliation differences, and warehouse performance from one live dashboard.

    • Operations dashboard
    • Team accountability
    • Risk and exception views

    Keep working when connectivity drops

    The mobile app retains operational state locally and queues supported updates for retry when the connection returns.

    • Local operational state
    • Queued updates
    • Resilient mobile workflows

    API-connected by design

    Keep the systems that work. Connect the work between them.

    HOC Warehouse sits between the systems that hold the data and the people who need to act on it. If your website, inventory platform, warehouse system, carrier, or hardware exposes a suitable API, it can form part of the workflow.

    Any commerce platform

    Connect Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, a marketplace, or a bespoke website through its API.

    Any inventory API

    Use Unleashed, an ERP, WMS, OMS, or another inventory system as the system of record.

    Shipping and carriers

    Bring carrier selection, label generation, tracking, and shipment completion into the packing flow.

    Warehouse hardware

    Connect scanners, label printers, and workstation printing with fewer clicks and handoffs.

    Configured, not imposed

    Your warehouse should not have to bend around generic software.

    The core platform provides the operating layer. The details can be adapted around your products, locations, devices, roles, terminology, exception rules, pick strategies, packing checks, integrations, and reporting priorities.

    01Your location and replenishment rules
    02Your single, wave, or bulk-pick strategy
    03Your barcode and packing checks
    04Your APIs, carriers, printers, and devices

    Manager visibility

    See the work, the risk, and the reason behind every movement.

    Managers get a live operating view across orders, inventory, staff activity, replenishment, reconciliation, expiry risk, and despatch—without waiting for a spreadsheet or walking the floor to find the answer.

    Outstanding work

    Receiving, putaway, picking, packing, stocktakes, and returns.

    Team accountability

    A clear record of who completed each warehouse action and when.

    Inventory risk

    Low stock, expiry exposure, reconciliation differences, and replenishment demand.

    Operational performance

    Live progress across the order journey and the exceptions slowing it down.

    Best fit

    For operations that have outgrown disconnected warehouse processes.

    This service is strongest for growing operations where order volume, warehouse locations, batch traceability, packing complexity, or team growth have exposed the limits of paper, spreadsheets, disconnected systems, and one-size-fits-all apps. Shopify and Unleashed are proven integrations, not platform limits.

    Common questions

    Before we map the workflow.

    01Does this replace our inventory or warehouse system?+

    Usually, no. HOC Warehouse is an execution layer that turns data from your existing inventory, ERP, WMS, or order system into clear warehouse work. Your current platform can remain the system of record.

    02Will it work with our website and stock system?+

    If those systems provide a suitable API, they can normally be connected. Shopify and Unleashed are proven integrations, but the platform is not limited to either of them.

    03What hardware do warehouse staff need?+

    The mobile experience is designed for practical warehouse use with barcode scanning. The final device, scanner, printer, and label setup is scoped around the environment your team already operates in.

    04Can the workflow be adapted to our warehouse?+

    Yes. Receiving rules, bulk-pick logic, pick locations, barcode checks, replenishment, packing, user roles, and integration detail can be configured around the way your operation actually works.

    05Can it support batch and expiry-controlled stock?+

    Yes. Batch, expiry, FEFO allocation, movement history, and reconciliation are central to the platform rather than treated as add-ons.

    06Is there a mobile app for warehouse staff?+

    Yes. The mobile app guides scan-led receiving, putaway, single and bulk picking, packing, stocktakes, transfers, and returns. Supported actions can be queued locally when connectivity drops.
