Warehouse maintenance software

Keep every dock open and every forklift safe.

Solmex services forklifts by run hours, records daily truck checks and racking inspections with a name and a time, and gets a stopped dock or conveyor working again faster.

Sound familiar?

Missed checks turn into missed shipments.

A dock leveller fails at peak

The leveller on door 7 jams during the evening wave. Trucks queue in the yard, and the fault was reported twice last month by word of mouth.

Truck checks exist only on paper

Drivers tick a daily sheet that nobody reads. When an inspector asks who checked a forklift's brakes last Tuesday, the sheet is missing.

Racking damage goes unrecorded

A forklift clips an upright on the night shift. Nobody reports it, and the damaged bay stays loaded until someone notices the bend.

How Solmex fixes it

One system for the site, from the yard to the racking.

Prevent

Service forklifts before they fail

Set plans for forklifts, reach trucks, dock levellers and conveyors by run hours or dates. Solmex shows what is due today, so each service can be planned between shifts.

Prove

Checks and racking inspections on record

Drivers run the pre-shift check from a phone at the truck. Racking inspections follow the same checklist, with photos. A failed item opens a job, and the record is kept per asset.

Respond

Report a fault before it grows

Anyone on the floor scans the QR label on a door, a truck or a racking bay and reports the problem with a photo. Maintenance sees it at once and decides what happens next.

Unplanned downtime costs you about $0

Planned maintenance that avoids 30% of it is worth $0

An estimate from your own inputs. The 30% is set below published results on purpose: NIST found 44% less downtime at plants that invested more in preventive and predictive maintenance.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can drivers do the daily truck check on a phone?

Yes. You build the checklist once and each driver runs it at the truck from a phone browser. Every answer carries the name and the time, photos can be added, and a failed item becomes a tracked job for maintenance.

Does Solmex help with racking and equipment inspections?

Yes. Racking and equipment inspections run from checklist templates, with photos and a signature, and each result is kept against the asset. You can export the history or print a signed PDF report. Solmex keeps the records; the inspection standard stays with your safety team.

We run several sites. Can we see them all?

Yes. Every asset belongs to a site and a location within it, and each keeps its own history. You can view one distribution centre or all of them, and roles control who sees and edits what at each site. Parts, costs and reports can be read per site or together.

How long does it take to get started?

Import your forklifts and fixed equipment from Excel, set up service plans and the daily check, and put QR labels on trucks and doors. Most sites are running within a few days. Every new account gets 14 days of the Business plan free, with no card needed.
