AI for Nurseries | TMI Technology
Nurseries

Know what you have. Ship what you promised.

Nursery operations carry perishable inventory across hundreds of varieties with seasonal demand spikes and wholesale customers who expect accurate availability. TMI builds the inventory and order coordination systems that stop the guessing and keep every order fulfilled on time.

The Problem

You sold 400 trees you do not have. Or you have 400 trees nobody ordered and spring is ending.

Nursery inventory moves constantly and lives outdoors across multiple growing areas. Without a system tracking it in real time, overcommitting and underordering both happen regularly.

01

Inventory Count Is Always Approximate

Walking the yard to count inventory by variety takes time your staff does not have during peak season. Most nurseries operate on estimates that are off by 10-20%, and the shortfall shows up when a wholesale order gets ready to ship.

02

Seasonal Labor Coordination Is Chaotic

Spring brings 30 extra hands for planting and loading. Coordinating who does what across greenhouse, outdoor beds, and loading dock without a clear system means work gets duplicated and priorities get missed.

03

Wholesale Order Fulfillment Errors

A landscape contractor orders 50 specific varieties for a project starting Monday. Your crew pulls the wrong sizes or the wrong quantities because the pick list was handwritten and the person who knew the order is not working that day.

What TMI Builds

Six systems. One operating layer.

Built for nursery operations that need accurate inventory, coordinated seasonal labor, and wholesale orders that ship right without requiring the owner to verify every load.

01

Live Inventory Tracking

Inventory by variety, size, and location updated as plants are received, sold, or moved. What you have available is always current. Overselling stops because the number in the system matches what is actually in the yard.

02

Wholesale Order Management

Customer orders entered and tracked from placement to fulfillment. Pick lists generated automatically. Staff pull the right quantities of the right varieties and the order ships complete without a manager verifying every pallet.

03

Seasonal Labor Scheduling

Peak season crew assignments built around planting schedules, shipping deadlines, and available staff. Everyone knows what section they are working, what tasks are priority, and when the truck arrives.

04

Reorder and Procurement Planning

Inventory levels tracked against historical demand by season. Reorder alerts trigger with enough lead time to source plants before peak demand hits. You stop running out of your fastest movers in April.

05

Plant Care Scheduling

Watering, fertilizing, and disease treatment schedules by growing area and variety. Care tasks assigned to staff automatically. Nothing gets forgotten in the back corner during a busy shipping week.

06

Customer and Wholesale Account Tracking

Order history, preferred varieties, payment terms, and delivery schedules tracked per wholesale account. Reorder conversations happen at the right time. Good customers get served well without the owner managing every relationship personally.
