Supply chain software, answered directly
What is supply chain software?
Supply chain software from ANTLR Tech is supply planning, purchasing and inbound tracking shaped to your vendors and lead times — not a mega-suite module maze. It is built for your operation rather than configured from a product, so the screens follow the way your team already works. Wholesale, manufacturing-light and multi-branch inventory businesses.
How much does supply chain software cost?
It depends on scope, integrations and how many locations you run — so we don't publish a number that would be wrong for most people. What we do commit to is the shape: a short paid discovery, then a fixed price for a defined first release that you approve before any production code is written. No open-ended billing, and no surprise at the end.
How long does it take to build?
A first working release lands in 6–14 weeks from kickoff. We run two-week cycles with a demo at the end of each, so your team is using part of the system while the rest is still being built — rather than waiting for a single reveal at the end.
Who is supply chain software for?
Operators whose supply plan is a vendor email thread. Wholesale, manufacturing-light and multi-branch inventory businesses. If an off-the-shelf product already fits without workarounds, we will say so — custom software only pays when the process is specific enough that rented tools fight you.

Questions buyers ask about supply chain software
Is this a generic supply chain software product?
No. Supply chain software from ANTLR Tech is built around how your team already works, then replaces the spreadsheets and disconnected apps holding that process together. You are not configuring someone else's product to fit — the screens follow your steps, your terminology and your exceptions.
Can supply chain software integrate with what we already use?
Yes. Accounting, payments, email and the systems you intend to keep stay connected rather than being replaced for the sake of it. Anything with an API is in scope, and we agree the integration list during planning so nothing surfaces as a surprise mid-build.
Who owns the software?
You do. The repository, the hosting accounts and the data are yours from day one, documented at handover so another team could pick it up. There is no seat licence, and no fee that exists only to keep you with us.
How small can a first supply chain software release be?
One workflow your team runs daily. We deliberately scope the first release to the narrowest slice that removes real manual work, because a narrow release in production teaches us more than a wide one still sitting in staging. The rest follows once it is earning its keep.
Do we need a written specification before starting supply chain software?
No. Most clients arrive with a problem rather than a spec. Deciding what to build first — and what to leave alone — is the work of the discovery stage, and you keep the process map that comes out of it either way.
Can it replace the system we run today?
Usually, yes. We migrate historical records, run both systems in parallel for one cycle, and cut over only once your team confirms the new one is faster for daily work. Nothing is switched off before that point.
