The "Data Silo" Problem
Fragmented Inventory Data Across WMS, TMS, and ERP Systems Leading to Pallet Tracking Errors
Delayed Shipment Visibility in Transit Causing Route Inefficiencies and Increased Demurrage Fees
Inaccurate Demand Forecasting for LTL and FTL Shipments Leading to Overstock Piles and Detention Charges
Manual KPI Tracking for Order Cycle Times Slowing Down Labor Productivity Insights in Distribution Centers
Poor Integration with Carrier EDI and APIs Exposing Delivery Bottlenecks in Cross-Dock Operations
Lack of Real-Time Alerts for Warehouse Capacity Overruns in Inbound Receiving and Putaway Processes
Custom-Built BI Dashboards Tailored to Your Warehousing Workflow
With over a decade of experience optimizing logistics operations, we've helped mid-sized warehousing firms achieve 25% faster decision-making cycles.
Why Choose Us
At AIQ Labs, we don't deploy off-the-shelf dashboards. We engineer enterprise-grade BI solutions that integrate seamlessly with your WMS, TMS, and ERP systems. Picture your warehouse data flowing like a well-orchestrated supply chain—no more bottlenecks. Our approach starts with mapping your exact workflows, from inbound receiving to outbound fulfillment, then builds real-time visualizations that turn raw data into strategic advantages. This isn't just visibility; it's the control tower your operations have been missing.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency with Actionable Warehouse Insights
Real-Time Inventory Visibility
Real-Time Inventory Visibility: Track stock levels across multiple DCs and fulfillment centers instantly via integrated RFID and barcode scanning, reducing discrepancies by up to 40% in pallet accuracy. No more surprise shortages during peak e-commerce shipping seasons—our dashboards provide granular views down to the SKU level, empowering supervisors to reallocate cross-dock resources on the fly within minutes of updates.
Optimized Throughput and Labor Metrics
Optimized Throughput and Labor Metrics: Monitor picks, packs, and cycles per hour with KPI trackers that highlight inefficiencies in conveyor and forklift utilization. Distribution teams using our solutions report 22% productivity gains within the first quarter, as managers make data-backed adjustments to shift schedules and equipment usage without guesswork, minimizing idle time during peak freight volumes.
Predictive Forecasting for Demand Spikes
Predictive Forecasting for Demand Spikes: Leverage historical LTL shipment data, external factors like port congestion or carrier delays, and AI-driven models to forecast needs accurately within 24-48 hours. This cuts overstock costs by 18% on average for intermodal operations, ensuring your warehouse runs like a precision-engineered conveyor belt, always one step ahead of disruptions from weather-impacted routes.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were buried in Excel sheets trying to track pallet movements across three regional DCs in the Midwest. Their custom dashboard integrated our WMS with ELD carrier feeds from trucking partners, and now we spot bottlenecks in real-time during peak Q4 volumes—our fulfillment speed jumped 35% in just two months, without adding staff or extra trailers."
Maria Gonzalez
Operations Director, SwiftLogix Warehousing
"Data silos between our inventory system and TMS were killing us during holiday rushes with surging LTL volumes. AIQ built a unified BI tool that gives us visibility into every load from origin to destination, reducing errors from 12% to under 2% in cross-border shipments. It's like having a logistics command center right on our screens, accessible 24/7."
David Chen
Warehouse Manager, TransFreight Solutions
"We used to chase down reports manually, wasting hours weekly on throughput metrics for our inbound docks. Their solution automated KPI tracking for order cycle times and dock occupancy, helping us optimize space and cut holding costs by 28% last quarter amid fuel price spikes. Finally, decisions based on facts, not hunches, for better carrier negotiations."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your BI solution handle data from multiple warehouse management systems?
We specialize in integrating disparate WMS platforms, like Manhattan or HighJump, into a unified dashboard. Our custom APIs pull data in real-time, resolving silos that plague multi-site operations. For a recent client with three facilities, this cut reconciliation time from days to hours, providing a single source of truth for inventory across locations. We also build in error-checking to flag inconsistencies, ensuring accuracy in high-stakes logistics environments where even small discrepancies can cascade into shipment delays.
What kind of KPIs can we track for warehousing efficiency?
Our solutions focus on logistics-specific metrics like order cycle time, fill rates, and cube utilization, benchmarked against industry standards—aiming for 95%+ on-time picks. We customize visualizations to show trends in labor productivity and carrier performance, helping you identify bottlenecks like slow inbound processing. One warehousing firm we partnered with used our KPI trackers to reduce dwell times by 25%, directly boosting throughput without capital investments.
Is the system scalable for growing warehouse networks?
Absolutely. Built on robust, cloud-native frameworks, our BI tools scale effortlessly as you add sites or increase SKUs. Unlike rigid templates, we design for your expansion plans, incorporating modular data pipelines that handle volume surges—think holiday peaks pushing daily transactions from 5,000 to 50,000. A mid-sized distributor saw seamless growth from two to five warehouses, maintaining sub-second dashboard refreshes and avoiding the downtime that hampers off-the-shelf options.
How secure is the data in your custom BI dashboards?
Security is paramount in transportation and logistics, where shipment data involves sensitive client info. We implement enterprise-grade encryption, SOC 2 compliance, and role-based access controls to protect against breaches. For instance, access to carrier route details is limited to dispatch teams only. Our audits ensure HIPAA-level standards if needed for pharma warehousing, and we've helped clients pass rigorous carrier audits by providing traceable, tamper-proof data logs—all without compromising speed.
What's the timeline for implementing a custom BI solution?
Typically, we deliver a MVP in 4-6 weeks after initial assessment, with full rollout in 8-12 weeks depending on integration complexity. This includes mapping your workflows, building prototypes, and iterative testing with your team. A recent project for a regional logistics provider went live in under two months, transforming their manual reporting into automated insights that immediately improved dock efficiency by 18%. We prioritize quick wins to minimize disruption during implementation.
Can this integrate with our existing transportation management system?
Yes, we excel at deep, bidirectional integrations with TMS platforms like Oracle or SAP, syncing warehouse data with route optimization and ETAs. This creates holistic visibility, alerting you to mismatches like inventory shortages affecting outbound loads. For a client juggling multiple carriers, our setup reduced manual cross-checks by 70%, streamlining the handoff from warehouse to transport and cutting overall cycle times significantly.
