The requirement

The business challenge

The earlier material management application was difficult to maintain, with operational bugs affecting day-to-day use. Stock adjustments and transaction tracing needed a clearer workflow, allowing railway divisions and zonal officers to follow requests, deliveries and allotments through connected records.

Our work

The solution we delivered

Web Build Solutions rebuilt the system with a React interface, custom PHP APIs and a MySQL database. The work included system planning, implementation, migration of existing data and deployment. Rather than treating purchasing and stock as separate tasks, the application connects the material journey from divisional requirements to receipt and allotment.

Important modules and workflows

  1. Material indents raised by divisions to record requirements.

  2. Purchase orders informed by multiple indents, with delivery tracking for zonal officers.

  3. Receipts and stock records connected to subsequent requisitions and allotments.

  4. Change histories showing who updated stock, indents and allotments.

The result

What the project delivered

The system is live in production and used by railway divisions and zonal officers. The delivered workflow gives teams a structured way to trace material movements and investigate earlier changes.

Technology and delivery

Core technology: React, PHP APIs, MySQL.
