What's different here

Depots do not need a 'big bang' TAS — they need stock discipline.

Most fuel depots run on Excel, paper dip sheets, manual outturns, and ERPs that do not see the depot floor for days at a time. The fix is not a full TAS — that is overkill for the scale and the risk profile. The fix is stock discipline first, gantry-side digital capture second, and automation only where it earns its keep. BulkStock™ exists for exactly this pattern.

What we measure

The KPIs that matter here.

Daily close cycle

Minutes to close the books — not days. Operations and finance share one stock number.

Stock variance %

Reconciled per shift, not per month. Drift detected early, not at audit.

Multi-depot view

One pane across all depots. Replenishment ordering grounded in current stock, not last week’s spreadsheet.

BulkStock™

Stock visibility for depots, tank farms, and terminal teams.

BulkStock™ is positioned for inventory movement visibility, stock confidence, and depot operating discipline.

  • Movement tracking

BulkStock™ is a Sbridge product name.

Representative use case

From spreadsheets to a stock backbone that finance trusts.

A multi-depot operator running spreadsheets and email-based daily sales was losing 2–3 days at every weekly close on stock balance and outturns. After BulkStock™ deployment with ATEX-tablet entry at the gantry, daily close dropped to 30 minutes, weekly excise reporting was cut to a single afternoon, and stock variance was reconciled per shift instead of per month.
