Tarnwick

From your files to one trusted page

No new system to learn. You keep sending the files you already keep, and Tarnwick does the matching, checking and calculating.

1

Collect

Your stock, sales, PO and shipping files arrive in a private shared folder, or your own script drops them there. We never need access to your systems.

2

Clean and combine

SKU codes are matched across files, whatever each system calls them. Dates, duplicates and typos are fixed, and every fix is logged so nothing is hidden.

3

Calculate

Demand is corrected for past stock-outs, forecast for 52 weeks and projected week by week, with each PO landing when it can actually be sold: ETA, plus time to clear the port and be received into the DC.

4

Show and check

You open one page. Built-in checks recompute the headline numbers independently, so every figure agrees with the same figure everywhere else.

Many forwarders, many formats, one trusted page

In the demo, several forwarders each send files with different column names, date styles and product codes. Tarnwick maps them to one layout and logs each fix.

  • Duplicates removed, first line kept
  • SKU codes matched even with typos, using the order and quantity
  • TBC arrival dates (ETA) flagged as estimates, not hidden
Consistency checks that recompute the headline numbers

Your data stays yours

Remote and low-touch

You send files. We never need access to your systems.

A secure shared folder

Files travel by a private folder, not by email.

No customer personal data

We only need product-level data: stock, sales, orders and shipments.

Deleted when agreed

Raw files are deleted after 90 days, as set out in writing.

Our words, and what you might call them

Tarnwick uses standard supply chain terms. Every team has its own, so during setup we map the dashboard to your words and your rules.

SKU

A single product, size and colour you stock.

You may call it: Item, article, product code, stock line

PO

A purchase order placed with a supplier.

You may call it: Order, buy, contract

ETA

Estimated arrival date of a container at the port, or of stock at the DC.

You may call it: Landing date, arrival date, due date

Ex-factory date

The date the supplier finishes the goods and they are ready to ship.

You may call it: Ready date, cargo ready date, ship date

Lead time

Time from placing a PO to the stock being sellable.

You may call it: Supplier lead time, LT, order-to-shelf

WoC (weeks of cover)

How many weeks current stock lasts against forecast sales.

You may call it: Cover, weeks stock, days of supply

OTB (open to buy)

The budget still available to commit to new stock, usually by month, at cost.

You may call it: Buy plan, receipts budget, intake budget

Landed cost

What the stock costs once it is in your DC: price, freight, duty and handling.

You may call it: Cost price, total cost, delivered cost

D&D

Demurrage and detention: charges when a container sits at the port or is kept past its free days.

You may call it: Port charges, storage and demurrage

DC

Distribution centre or warehouse that receives and ships your stock.

You may call it: Site, depot, warehouse, FC

Booking window and slots

How far ahead a delivery can be booked, and the delivery places a DC has each day.

You may call it: Delivery slot, appointment, dock booking

Rephasing

Moving a PO or container later (or earlier) so stock lands when it is needed.

You may call it: Push-back, deferral, re-timing, call-off
