IRIS Distribution.
The orchestrator behind the chain.

Order fulfilment, allocation and logistics for distributors moving thousands of references across warehouses, regional hubs and trade partners. One screen for the whole flow.

— What it is

A fulfilment and allocation operating layer for distributors.

Where IRIS Retail decides what to order, IRIS Distribution decides how to deliver it. Carriers, warehouses, allocation rules, compliance — one orchestrator.

— 01

Order & fulfilment hub

Every order in one queue. Pick, pack, ship status visible at the line level. SLA tracking built in.

— 02

Multi-echelon allocation

National warehouse → regional hub → store. The engine resolves conflicts when demand exceeds supply, using fairness rules you define.

— 03

Carrier & TMS orchestration

Rate cards, transit times, capacity. IRIS picks the carrier that meets the SLA at the lowest cost — automatically.

— 04

Executive dashboard

C-suite metrics: fill rate, on-time delivery, cost per order, distribution margin. Real numbers, not vanity ones.

— 05

Planner workspace

The same chat-first interface as Retail. Ask, draft, approve. Hide the complexity, expose the decisions.

— 06

Returns & recalls

Reverse logistics with lot traceability. Pharma-grade audit trail from shelf back to supplier.

— 07

Audit & compliance

Every keystroke logged. Soft-deletes preserve history. Exportable for any auditor in any jurisdiction.

— 08

Integrations

Native connectors for ERP, WMS, TMS, POS, carriers. REST + webhooks for the long tail.

Module · Allocation

When demand exceeds supply, fairness becomes a rule.

Pro-rata, priority, contract-based or hybrid. Define the policy once, the engine applies it consistently to every contested SKU — and shows you which stores would gain or lose if you changed the rule tomorrow.

The morning after a product launch.

Use case Distributor · Luxury fragrance · EU

A flagship fragrance launched yesterday. Demand spiked in Milan and Madrid, was flat in Lisbon. The national warehouse has 4,200 units left to allocate across 312 doors.

IRIS Distribution applies the fairness policy your sales director signed off in February: protect the top-100 doors at 100% fill, pro-rata the rest. The proposal: 9 transfers between hubs, 312 outbound shipments, three carriers selected on cost-and-SLA.

Total time to confirm: eleven minutes. Total time saved versus last quarter's launch: half a day per person, across four planners.
