Android App to Automate Inventory

For a wholesaler, manufacturer, retailer or logistic company, effective inventory management is the core of high performance and optimized money flow. Labor-intensive and time-consuming manual stocktaking and recording, which often lead to inaccurate accounting and mix-ups, seriously reduce the effectiveness of inventory practices. This often results in lost time, money and business opportunities.

Overfli Android app is a B2E (business to employee) app focused on reducing mistakes and streamlining inventory processes in different storage facilities — warehouses, industrial and assembly premises, etc.

The app is connected to professional scanners for inventory and helps employees automatically verify the stock and instantly fill in the reports. At the same time, the admin part of the application allows management to monitor and control inventory processes from the comfort of the office.

Kotlin-based smartphone app is integrated with Android scanners via custom SDK. The system is easy to learn and use, yet it is functional and provides a wide range of benefits and improvements for the inventory.

When an employee scans a barcode on an item, the app compares it against an original inventory checklist uploaded beforehand. Then, the system updates the employee about the status of the item, offers corrective steps if needed and automatically fills in the inventory report on the number of scanned parts and bins. Once the job is done, the checklist is automatically deleted to keep the app lightweight and not to clog it with unnecessary data.

Thanks to this workflow, Overfli app can operate both online and offline, which makes it convenient for large storage premises with an inconsistent WiFi connection or even lack of thereof. The system keeps the data on the scanned items in the phone until it finds a reliable connection and transfers it to the server. Therefore, the data is secured from loss or damage.
