Downtime

When orders stop, the whole chain stops

Sales takes the order, the system allocates stock, the warehouse picks and packs, labels print, the courier collects and accounts raises the invoice. Break one link and everything behind it waits.

You can count the cost of an hour offline on the warehouse floor: pickers waiting, the courier cut-off passing with orders still on the bench, customers ringing about their stock, and tomorrow starting with a backlog.

What we hear most
  • Scanners drop out in the back aisles
  • Label printers stop talking to the inventory system
  • Everything crawls when the morning shift logs on
  • A supplier “changes bank details” by email
  • Nobody knows the network passwords
Warehouse floor

Wi-Fi and scanners that reach every aisle

In a warehouse, office Wi-Fi gear fails in predictable places: behind full racking, in cold rooms, at the far end of the dock. Scanners drop mid-pick or cling to a distant access point.

We place access points for racking that’s full of stock rather than empty, and test where people actually work.

Coverage

Access points placed

Positioned for full racking, the dock and the yard, not an empty floor.

Scanners

Stable through a pick run

Roaming and power settings tuned so handhelds hold their connection.

Labels

Printers that print

Label printers kept connected to your inventory and courier systems.

Drivers

Phones secured on the road

Delivery phones and tablets enrolled, and wiped remotely if lost.

Systems we support

The software that runs your stock

Examples of what clients use. We look after the devices, access and connections.

Inventory and ERP

Stock, orders and purchasing

Cloud inventory and ERP platforms such as Cin7, Unleashed, DEAR Inventory (now Cin7 Core), MYOB and industry-specific systems.

Accounting

Links to Xero and MYOB

When orders stop flowing into accounts, invoicing stops too. We find the break and chase the vendor if needed.

Shipping

Courier and label integrations

Labels and courier bookings depend on your inventory system reaching the carrier. We keep that path open.

Office

Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace

Shared inboxes for orders and accounts, all behind multi-factor authentication.

Find the weak links before your busy season

We’ll review your warehouse Wi-Fi, order systems, backups and email security, then tell you what to fix first.

Payment fraud

Making fake supplier invoices hard to pay

Business email compromise, where a hacked or fake account redirects a payment, was among the top cybercrimes businesses reported to the ASD in 2024-25. Wholesalers paying many suppliers are exposed.

Multi-site

Warehouse, office and showroom on one network

Many distributors run a warehouse, an office and a showroom or second warehouse in different suburbs. Every site needs the same systems and the same security.

We connect and document each site to one standard, and plan warehouse moves early so the new site is ready before you are.

How we keep dispatch running

01

Around-the-clock monitoring

Security alerts on every computer and server monitored 24/7, with alerts escalated to our team.

03

Tested backups

FAQ

Wholesale IT: common questions

Usually because office-grade equipment is fighting steel racking, concrete, stock and distance, and scanners cling to a weak access point instead of roaming. We reposition or add access points, tune roaming and test coverage where your team works.

We support the devices, logins and integrations around Cin7 (including Cin7 Core, formerly DEAR Inventory), Unleashed, MYOB, Xero integrations and industry-specific ERPs, plus barcode scanners and label printers. The vendor runs the platform, and we raise faults with them when needed.

Combine email controls with a payment process. We set up SPF, DKIM and DMARC, multi-factor authentication, sign-in monitoring and phishing training. You adopt a rule that any change of supplier bank details is confirmed by phone on a number you already hold, never one from the email.

Early, ideally before the racking goes in. Internet services can take weeks to connect, and access points are far easier to place in an empty building. We plan the move, set up the new site and cut over with minimal disruption to dispatch.

Yes, with rules. AI can draft product descriptions and summarise sales data, but supplier pricing and customer details shouldn’t go into public tools. We help you choose approved tools, set them up securely and train your team.

Managed IT typically costs $120 to $250 per user per month, with your warehouse devices and sites factored into one fixed monthly price. Terms are month to month, and projects like a warehouse move are quoted before work starts.
