Kanban cards with QR codes that track real consumption on your shop floor. Your Purchasing Manager scans the Order Queue in seconds. Most teams are live in three days.
Your replenishment system is broken
Whiteboards, spreadsheets, ERPs built on forecasts nobody trusts. Each breaks in a different spot. The stockout is always the same.
Someone forgets to check the bin. Stock runs out before anyone notices. The failure is built into the process.
System failureEvery reorder needs a phone call. Your Purchasing Manager spends half the week chasing vendors.
Wasted timeYour ERP builds forecasts from consumption data no one keeps accurate. Every output is wrong from the start.
Bad forecastsYou find out about the stockout after the line stops. Then you're paying expedite fees and apologizing to customers.
Unhappy customersYou over-order to cover the uncertainty. Cash sits in parts you won't need for 90 days. Other bins still run dry.
Lose-loseYour distributor scrambles on emergency deliveries. You pay expedite fees. Everyone in the chain pays for the broken process.
Mfgs + DistributorsReplenishment fires when a bin empties, based on actual consumption. Your Purchasing Manager isn't guessing.
Always accurateCards fit into how your floor already moves. Workers don't change their routine. No login, no training required.
Zero frictionYour Purchasing Manager scans the Order Queue from any phone. The reorder goes out. Get in, get out.
Seconds, not hoursArda runs on shared devices through shift changes without reliable wifi. Built for how floors actually run, not how they're supposed to.
Actually adoptedYour Purchasing Manager runs reorders without you. Uriel at Austere went from every order to zero.
Get your time backYour distributor gets a steady stream of kanban reorders instead of emergency calls. Fewer expedites, better relationship.
Everyone winsHow it works
Set up your items, bins, and reorder points. Print one card per bin, each with a unique QR code. Start with your three most critical parts.
Place each card between the front bin and reserve stock. When your worker reaches it, they move it to the Order Queue. Replenishment starts.
Your Purchasing Manager scans the Order Queue with any phone. The reorder goes to your supplier in seconds. Get in, get out.
Real results from real shops
“Before Arda, we kept inventory of critical components at 25. Now we keep inventories of 5 and make 5–6× as many vehicles. We doubled last year and plan to double again this year.”
“Arda is a very easy way to get going with improving your processes and inventory. You can start incrementally and over time add more. It doesn’t create any big workflow changes.”
“Arda made it dead simple to run a kanban system. I reduced my time spent ordering by 90% and then 100%, because for the first time ever, I was able to delegate ordering — as a small business owner, that was huge.”
The alternatives
Common questions
Arda doesn't replace your ERP. It gives your ERP accurate consumption data from the shop floor, which is the one thing ERPs consistently get wrong. Your Purchasing Manager scans the Order Queue from any phone. Data flows to QuickBooks, NetSuite, Shopify, or Xero.
The cards take 60 seconds in the generator and a few minutes to print and laminate. For the full platform with reorder automation, most customers are live in 3 days. No consultant. No six-month rollout.
It's a physical card, not an app. When a bin hits minimum, your worker sees it and moves it to the Order Queue. Any phone scans it. No training, no login, no new software for the floor to learn.
Uriel built the first version in a 500 sq ft barn at Austere and 600x'd his production. Most customers are small to mid-size shops: fabricators, machinists, custom builders. If you're managing parts on a whiteboard, Arda fits.
The card works anywhere. It doesn't need wifi. When your worker scans and the phone connects, the Order Queue updates. Arda was built for floors with shared devices and shift changes.
