Inventory and Stock Management Software
Wasp Inventory is manufacturing inventory software that helps teams track parts, materials, and consumables in one centralized system across raw materials, components, finished goods, and work in process. Replace spreadsheets with accurate counts, clear bin locations, and usage history.
Set minimum and maximum stock levels, receive automatic alerts, and keep critical items available when they’re needed.
Inventory Visibility by Location
See where materials are stored and how much is available across production, stockroom, and warehouse locations.
Purchase and Pick Orders
Manage purchasing, receiving, and internal picks in one system. Keep materials moving without losing track of what’s been ordered or issued.
Lot and Serial Tracking
Track inventory by lot number, serial number, batch, or date code to maintain traceability, manage recalls, and identify affected inventory quickly.
Inventory Audit Tools
Run faster cycle counts and full audits with fewer disruptions to daily operations.
Work-in-Process Visibility
Track work-in-process inventory as materials move through production stages. Barcode scans at each station show what’s in queue, what’s in progress, and what’s complete.

Inventory and Asset Tracking by Industry
Wasp adapts to how your manufacturing operation actually runs, across food and beverage, automotive, electronics, pharmaceutical, chemical, aerospace, and more.
Food Manufacturing Inventory Management
Food and beverage operations track lot numbers, expiration dates, and finished goods location for recall readiness and audit prep. Wasp lot tracking assigns lot numbers as items are received, records expiration and manufacture dates, and maintains traceability from supplier to final use. If a recall hits, search by lot number to see where affected inventory is stored, used, or distributed.
Automotive Parts Inventory Management
Automotive parts operations move fast and span locations, from a single shop to multiple warehouses. Wasp automotive parts inventory management tracks parts with barcode scanning, serial number management, and VIN tracking across every location, with automated purchase orders and low stock alerts that keep fast moving parts in stock.
Electronics Manufacturing Software
Electronics manufacturers track components and finished units by serial number and need accurate counts as parts move between locations. Wasp tracks items by serial number, lot, and location, and barcode scans keep counts accurate from receiving through shipping.
Pharmaceutical Inventory Management Software
Pharmaceutical operations track lot numbers, expiration dates, and distribution for audit and recall. Wasp lot tracking assigns lot numbers at receipt, records expiration dates with expiry alerts, and maintains traceability from supplier to final use. Search any lot to see where it is stored or where it went.
Chemical Inventory Management Software
Chemical manufacturers track lot numbers, supplier sources, and locations for safety and recall. Wasp lot tracking records every lot by number, location, and movement, with manufacture and expiration dates, and lets you search any lot to find where affected inventory is stored or where it was used.
Aerospace Manufacturing Software
Aerospace and defense suppliers track serialized parts and keep records ready for quality audits. Wasp tracks parts by serial number and location with a full history of movement and assignments.

What does Wasp implementation look like for a manufacturer?
What does Wasp implementation look like for a manufacturer?
Wasp implementation for a manufacturing operation typically runs in three phases: data migration (existing assets, inventory, and parts records), shop floor barcode rollout (scanners, printers, label runs), and integration with existing ERP or accounting platforms where applicable. Timelines for a small or mid-size manufacturer at a single facility are typically shorter, while a multi-facility implementation may take longer.
