OVERVIEW

Software shaped around how logistics & supply chain really works.

Logistics runs on timing, and a small delay at one node ripples through every downstream commitment. Many operators still coordinate shipments, vehicles and stock through phone calls, spreadsheets and systems that do not talk to each other, so exceptions are discovered by the customer rather than the control tower. The cost shows up as re-attempts, idle vehicles, detention charges and service credits that erode already thin margins.

As a logistics software development company, we build transport management, fleet, warehouse and last-mile platforms around how your operation actually moves goods: how orders are tendered to carriers, how drivers receive and complete jobs, how stock is received, picked and despatched, and how customers are kept informed. Every product starts from that flow and from the partners, from 3PLs to parcel carriers, that sit inside it.

Integration is treated as core scope rather than an afterthought. Our platforms exchange orders, status and documents with ERPs such as SAP, Oracle and NetSuite, with carriers through EDI X12 and EDIFACT or the REST APIs of DHL, FedEx, UPS and Aramex, with telematics from Samsara, Geotab and Motive, and with GS1 barcodes and SSCC labels, so data moves between systems without anyone re-keying it.

Security, auditability and resilience are engineered in from the first sprint to support GDPR, ISO 28000 supply chain security, C-TPAT programme requirements and the FMCSA ELD mandate where US hours-of-service rules apply. The outcome is custom logistics software that dispatchers trust under pressure, finance can reconcile and customers can see, from tender to proof of delivery. Documentation for audits and customer security reviews is produced as part of delivery.

Why logistics & supply chain teams build with Creuto

Operational flow mapping

We ride along with dispatchers, drivers and warehouse leads before we design, so the product removes handoffs and phone calls instead of adding another screen to an old process.

ERP, carrier and EDI integration

Standards-based integration with SAP, Oracle and NetSuite, carrier APIs and EDI X12 or EDIFACT partners, including legacy systems that only exchange flat files over SFTP.

Telematics and IoT ingestion

High-volume pipelines for GPS, engine, temperature and door-sensor data from Samsara, Geotab, Motive and custom devices, with geofencing, alerting and replay built in.

Offline-first field apps

Driver and warehouse apps that keep working in depots, basements and rural routes, queueing scans, signatures and photos until connectivity returns.

Optimisation and forecasting

Route optimisation, load building, ETA prediction and demand forecasting models tuned to your constraints, with dispatcher override and explainable outputs.

Cutover without stopping trucks

Logistics cannot pause for a release. We migrate data, run parallel operations and roll out by depot or lane so service levels hold throughout.

CHALLENGES WE SOLVE

What holds logistics & supply chain teams back.

The problems we most often help logistics & supply chain organisations solve, and design every engagement around.

  1. 01

    Limited shipment visibility

    Customers and operations teams cannot see where goods are in real time, so exceptions surface as complaints rather than alerts the control tower can act on early.

  2. 02

    Rising fuel and fleet costs

    Poor routing, idle time and reactive maintenance inflate cost per delivery, and without telematics data there is no reliable way to see where the waste is.

  3. 03

    Warehouse errors and stock drift

    Paper pick lists and manual counts cause mis-shipments, returns and stock records that no longer match what is physically on the shelves.

  4. 04

    Partner integration

    Carriers, 3PLs, shippers and customers run different systems and formats, from EDI to spreadsheets, and every manual bridge between them is a source of delay.

  5. 05

    Peak demand and disruption

    Seasonal surges, weather and port congestion stress planning tools built for average days, leaving teams to improvise with phone calls and overtime.

Client satisfaction

Start a conversation
  1. /01

    We speak dispatch and dock

    Discovery is run by people who understand tendering, load planning, pick paths and detention, so requirements are right the first time.

  2. /02

    Integration is a core skill

    EDI, carrier APIs, ERP connectors and telematics feeds are things we build regularly, including with partners that only exchange flat files.

  3. /03

    Built for the field

    Offline-first apps, rugged device support and large touch targets are standard, because software that fails in the yard is abandoned.

  4. /04

    Optimisation with operator control

    Routing and forecasting models suggest, dispatchers decide, and every override is captured to improve the next plan.

  5. /05

    A long-term engineering partner

    Monitoring, partner onboarding, integration maintenance and a measured roadmap keep the platform improving as lanes, carriers and volumes change.

BENEFITS

Benefits of custom logistics & supply chain software over off-the-shelf tools.

What organisations in this sector gain when the software is built around their workflows rather than the other way around.

  1. 01

    Fewer failed and late deliveries

    Optimised routes, accurate ETAs and customer self-service reduce re-attempts and the support calls that follow them.

  2. 02

    Lower cost per shipment

    Better load building, less idling and automated freight audit take waste out of every move.

  3. 03

    Accurate stock and faster throughput

    Scan-driven warehouse processes cut picking errors and keep inventory records matched to the shelf.

  4. 04

    One view across partners

    Carrier, supplier and 3PL data in one control tower means exceptions are managed early rather than discovered late.

  5. 05

    Faster cash collection

    Proof of delivery, invoicing and reconciliation in one flow shorten the gap between delivery and payment.

  6. 06

    Evidence for planning

    Operational dashboards replace month-end spreadsheets with live insight into capacity, service levels and cost.

HOW WE WORK

Our logistics & supply chain software development process.

Transparent, sprint-based and built around decisions you can see. You know what ships, when, and why at every step.

Start Your Project
  1. 01

    Operational discovery

    We shadow dispatch, drivers and warehouse shifts, map the order-to-delivery flow and agree the service-level and cost outcomes the software exists to improve.

  2. 02

    Architecture and compliance plan

    Data model, partner integrations, telematics feeds, hosting region and the regulations in scope are documented before design, so compliance is a property of the system.

  3. 03

    Design and field validation

    Clickable prototypes are tested with real drivers and pickers on real devices, including gloves, bright sunlight, poor signal and shared handhelds.

  4. 04

    Agile engineering

    Two-week sprints with working software reviewed by your operations leads. Carrier, ERP and telematics integrations are built against sandbox environments early.

  5. 05

    Integration, QA and hardening

    Automated tests, EDI conformance checks, load testing for peak-season volumes and a penetration test before go-live.

  6. 06

    Phased launch and continuous improvement

    Depot-by-depot or lane-by-lane rollout with training, monitoring and a roadmap driven by on-time performance and cost-per-delivery data.

TRENDS

Trends shaping logistics & supply chain software right now.

The shifts we design for so a product launched this year is still the right product in three.

  1. 01

    Predictive visibility

    Shippers now expect ETAs that account for traffic, port congestion and weather, which requires telematics, partner data and machine learning in one pipeline.

  2. 02

    AI in planning and customer service

    Load optimisation, demand forecasting and natural-language assistants for tracking queries are moving from pilot to standard operating tools.

  3. 03

    Electrification of fleets

    Battery range, charging windows and depot power limits are becoming routing constraints, pulling EV charging data into fleet and dispatch software.

  4. 04

    API-first carrier connectivity

    Carriers and forwarders are complementing EDI with REST APIs and webhooks, and shippers expect both to be supported without manual bridges.

  5. 05

    Sustainability reporting

    Customers and regulators ask for emissions per shipment, which needs fuel, distance and mode data captured consistently and reported under the GHG Protocol.

  6. 06

    Automation in the warehouse

    Robotics, autonomous mobile robots and goods-to-person systems need a WMS that orchestrates machines and people through the same task engine.

COST AND TIMELINE

How much does logistics & supply chain software development cost?

There is no honest single number. Scope, integrations and compliance drive the budget, so we price against a written scope after discovery. The factors below are what move it.

  1. 01

    Number of modules and roles

    A driver app alone is a smaller build than TMS, WMS, driver and customer products sharing one platform.

  2. 02

    Integrations in scope

    Each ERP, carrier, EDI partner, telematics provider or marketplace adds analysis, sandbox access, mapping and testing effort.

  3. 03

    Optimisation complexity

    Simple sequencing is quick; multi-depot routing with time windows, vehicle types and driver rules needs model tuning and validation.

  4. 04

    Device and offline requirements

    Rugged handhelds, printers, scanners and offline sync add hardware testing and edge-case engineering.

  5. 05

    Data migration

    Moving historical orders, rate cards and stock from legacy systems safely is a project in its own right, sized by data quality and volume.

  6. 06

    Multi-tenant and multi-site scope

    3PL billing per client, multiple warehouses and country-specific rules add configuration and reporting work.

EngagementTypical scopeTimeline
Validation MVPOne user role, core dispatch or tracking flow, one carrier or ERP integration, compliance foundations.10 to 14 weeks
Production platformDriver, customer and dispatch products, ERP and carrier integrations, telematics, monitoring and audit.4 to 7 months
Enterprise or multi-siteMulti-depot TMS and WMS, EDI partner network, data migration, optimisation and analytics.8 to 14 months, phased
BUSINESS MODELS

How logistics & supply chain products make money.

Revenue models we have built billing, reporting and growth loops for. Most products combine two or three.

  1. 01

    Per-shipment or per-delivery fees

    Usage-based pricing for marketplaces, courier platforms and delivery-as-a-service products.

  2. 02

    Operator subscriptions

    Per-vehicle, per-user or per-site plans for fleet, dispatch and warehouse software.

  3. 03

    Enterprise licensing

    Annual licences with implementation and support fees for TMS and WMS deployments.

  4. 04

    Marketplace commission

    A percentage of freight value or carrier payout on digital freight and load-matching platforms.

  5. 05

    Value-added services

    Insurance, customs brokerage, premium tracking and analytics sold as add-ons to the core platform.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about logistics & supply chain software projects. If yours is not here, ask us directly.

Ask our logistics & supply chain team

It depends on the modules in scope, the number of user roles, the ERP, carrier and telematics integrations required, optimisation complexity and whether rugged devices and offline use are needed. A focused validation MVP is a materially smaller investment than a multi-depot TMS and WMS. After a short discovery we provide a fixed-scope proposal with a clear breakdown rather than a single headline figure.

A validation MVP with one role and one integration typically takes 10 to 14 weeks. A production platform with driver, customer and dispatch products, ERP and carrier integration usually takes four to seven months. Enterprise or multi-site TMS and WMS programmes are delivered in phases over eight to fourteen months so operations are never interrupted.

We design for GDPR and regional privacy laws covering driver and customer data, the FMCSA ELD mandate and hours-of-service rules for US fleets, ISO 28000 supply chain security, C-TPAT and AEO programme requirements, and industry formats such as EDI X12, EDIFACT and GS1 barcodes. The exact scope is agreed during discovery based on your modes and markets.

Yes. We integrate with SAP, Oracle, NetSuite and Microsoft Dynamics, with carriers such as DHL, FedEx, UPS and Aramex through their APIs or aggregators like Shippo and EasyPost, and with partners through EDI X12 or EDIFACT over AS2 and SFTP. Telematics from Samsara, Geotab and Motive is ingested through their APIs.

App development usually refers to the driver, warehouse or customer-facing mobile and web applications. Logistics software development covers the whole system: those apps plus the TMS or WMS backend, integrations, optimisation engine, data platform and admin tools behind them. We deliver both, as one connected product.

Yes. Driver and warehouse apps are built offline-first, so job lists, scans, signatures and photos are captured locally and synchronised when connectivity returns. We test on rugged Android devices as well as consumer phones, and support barcode scanners, label printers and vehicle-mounted tablets.

Yes. We implement route and load optimisation using engines such as OR-Tools or commercial routing APIs, configured for your time windows, vehicle types, driver rules and depot constraints. It can run as a service alongside your current dispatch tool, with dispatcher override and feedback captured to improve future plans.

Yes. We assess the current system, migrate orders, rate cards and stock data with validation and reconciliation, and modernise module by module so trucks keep moving and warehouses keep shipping throughout the transition. Parallel running and rollback plans protect service levels at every stage.
