Traceable goods flow and cross-branch approvals for businesses in Semarang
Remote work
There is no Bengawan Tech office in Semarang. Our team works remotely, so coordination with your warehouses and branches runs through messages, video calls, and online demos.
As a port city and the provincial capital, Semarang is busy with trade, distribution, warehousing, and industrial estates, and it is where many companies place their branch offices. Goods keep moving between warehouses, trucks, and customers, while decisions often wait for approval from another office.
Problems we often hear about
The holdup is rarely in one place; it usually appears when goods or documents pass between different warehouses, vehicles, and offices.
Paper delivery notes that are slow to come back
Proof of delivery is signed at the destination, and the paper rides home with the driver. Invoicing waits for that sheet to reach the office, if it doesn't get lost on the way.
Stock in other warehouses can't be seen
Sales promise goods that turn out to be in another warehouse or still on the road. Checking means phoning each warehouse head in turn.
Branches waiting on head office approval
Branch spending or stock transfers need sign-off from a manager based in another city. The request sinks among other messages, and the branch doesn't know whose desk it has reached.
Shipment whereabouts chased by phone
Customers ask sales, sales ask the warehouse, the warehouse calls a driver who is behind the wheel. One simple question eats up many people's time.
What we can build
Each item is designed to be used across several locations at once: warehouses, vehicles, branches, and head office all read the same records.
Digital delivery notes with proof of receipt
Drivers photograph the goods received and collect a signature on their phone. The proof shows up at the office right away, so invoicing doesn't wait for the paper to come back.
Stock per warehouse in one view
Inventory at every warehouse and branch is shown side by side, including goods that are being moved from one location to another.
Cross-branch approvals from a phone
Requests from a branch go straight to the right approver in whichever city, with a status the requester can follow: waiting, approved, or sent back.
A shipment status board
Sales and customer service see where every shipment is — being prepared, on its way, or received — without phoning the driver.
A daily summary for each branch
Goods in and out and requests from every branch are summarised automatically each day for the regional or head office.
How we work remotely
Because Bengawan Tech has no office in Semarang, we work remotely — a way of working already familiar to teams used to coordinating with a head office in another city. Every document and decision is kept in writing, so anyone at your branch can follow along.
An online first conversation
The first conversation can bring together people from several locations in one video call — the warehouse head, the branch admin, and the approver at head office.
Building in stages
Work starts with one delivery route or one warehouse. Once that flow is running, other branches and warehouses are connected one at a time.
Regular demos
Each stage is demonstrated online to everyone involved, then tested with real delivery notes and requests before it is rolled out further.
Questions people often ask
Our head office is in another city and already has its own system. Can the Semarang branch be connected?
It's worth exploring. We first check what data can be taken from the head office system and which IT rules apply, then propose what can be built for the branch without disrupting that system.
Our drivers often pass through areas with no signal. Is proof of delivery still recorded?
Photos and signatures can be held on the driver's phone first and sent on their own once the signal returns. We ask about your routes and your drivers' habits in the first conversation.
Can we start with one warehouse before bringing in every branch?
That is exactly what we suggest. One warehouse or one branch becomes the trial site, and the adjustments made there carry over to the next location.
