Custom Applications and Tools
Introduction
Supply chain operations are becoming increasingly complex, while many organizations are still constrained by rigid, standard IT solutions. Off-the-shelf systems often fail to fully tailor to individual business specifics, regional requirements, or unique service models. As a result, companies rely on manual workarounds, spreadsheets, and parallel tools, leading to inefficiencies, limited transparency, and higher operational risk. At the same time, evolving customer expectations and business growth demand systems that can adapt quickly – something standard software often cannot deliver.
Capabilities
Why Custom Applications and Tools are relevant and Miebach’s Approach
Miebach develops custom digital applications that are tailored precisely to our clients’ processes and needs. Rather than replacing existing core systems, our solutions intelligently complement and extend WMS, TMS, and ERP landscapes. By focusing on usability, seamless integration, and scalability, we ensure that digital tools truly support operational teams and management alike. Our custom applications enable automation of critical workflows, orchestration across systems, real-time visibility across the supply chain, and a future-proof IT setup that evolves with changing business needs.
Common Use Cases
- Unique requirements that are not supported by off-the-shelf systems, such as real-time collaborative planning across order management, production and transportation
- Need for a new capability, not supported by the legacy systems that that are too costly to replace, for example a new self-billing or re-slotting WMS module.
- Need to orchestrate across two or more systems for an end-to-end task execution, such as handing over work between WCS and MES, or between MES and LIMS.
- Outdated software that requires modernization, such as replacing phone-based communication with self-service apps.
