Warehouse module

Know what you own, where it is, and what it just cost you.

RelayPlan Warehouse gives construction and field-service firms one live record of every material, tool and piece of equipment — across stores, sites and vans — with every movement tied back to a project.

Set up in minutesWorks with all modules

Why firms move their warehouse into RelayPlan

Materials are usually the second-biggest cost on a job and the least visible. The warehouse module makes that cost traceable from the moment stock arrives to the moment it is consumed.

One record, every location

Central store, site containers and service vans all live in the same system, with stock counted per location.

Find anything in seconds

Search by item, category or supplier and see exactly what is on hand, what is reserved and what is out on a job.

Real material cost per project

Issue stock to a project and the cost lands on its cost centre immediately, at real valuation.

No more emergency runs

Minimum levels trigger low-stock alerts before a crew discovers the shelf is empty at 7am.

What a digital warehouse actually changes on site

Most contractors run their warehouse on memory, a whiteboard and a spreadsheet that is out of date by Tuesday. Nobody knows how much cable is really left, tools disappear between sites, and material cost only surfaces when the supplier invoice arrives.

A digital warehouse replaces that with a single live record. Every receipt, issue, transfer and return is a logged movement with a person, a time and a project attached. Stock levels are always current because they are a consequence of real actions, not a periodic count.

The payoff is threefold: fewer emergency purchases at retail prices, far less shrinkage because every tool has a keeper, and material costs that appear on the project the day they are consumed rather than six weeks later.

What firms typically track

Consumables (cable, fixings, pipe, sealant) · tools and power tools with a named keeper · measuring and safety equipment · site containers and van stock · returnable equipment on hire — each with its own category, unit and minimum level.

Everything the Warehouse module does

From goods-in to the last metre of cable consumed on site.

Locations & organisation

Model your real storage: main warehouse, site containers, vans and external stores. Move stock between them with a logged transfer.

Unlimited locations and sub-locations
Van and site stock treated as first-class
Every transfer logged with person and time
Forklift loading materials in a warehouse

Goods in & out

Receive deliveries against orders, issue materials to a project in a couple of taps, and record returns of anything that comes back unused.

Returns and write-offs handled cleanly

Tools & equipment

Track tools individually, with a named keeper and a location. When something goes missing you know who had it last and on which job.

Mobile in the field

Foremen issue materials and confirm receipts from the site itself, instead of noting them down and typing them up later.

Valuation & costing

Stock is valued continuously, so the cost that lands on a project is the real cost of the goods you actually issued.

Warehouse — FAQ

No. RelayPlan works perfectly with manual selection from a searchable list, which is how most firms begin. The system is barcode-ready, so you can add scanning later using ordinary phone cameras — no dedicated hardware required.
Yes. Vans, containers and temporary site stores are locations exactly like the main warehouse. You can see what is in each one and transfer between them with a logged movement.
When stock is issued you pick the project and cost centre. The material cost posts to that centre immediately at current valuation, so job costing updates without any accounting step.
Yes. Materials, tools and equipment import from Excel or CSV, including categories, units, suppliers and minimum levels.
Both. Consumables are tracked by quantity; tools and equipment can be tracked as individual items with a named keeper, a location, and check-out history.
Each item can have a minimum level. When on-hand quantity drops below it, the item appears in low-stock alerts so purchasing can act before a crew is blocked.
Only if you let them. Permissions are role-based, so warehouse users can issue and receive stock without seeing budgets, margins or other financial data.
