Reducing (Slow Moving) Inventory, and Preventing Warehouse Errors -- services that reduce costs, and increase customer service

We help clients in unique ways that others can’t, because we are inventory-management and operations experts; and aren’t defensive about system-use or warehouse operations (unlike some people). 

To reduce inventory, especially slow moving items, without hurting customer service, we developed unique techniques -- ones that also avoid shortages.

To prevent warehouse errors that anger customers, we adopted JIT Quality Methods*; Methods that can also increase productivity. We also adopted Methods that prevent office errors. These improvements are often inexpensive and quick to implement.

The techniques and the Methods are defined in a comprehensive Checklist. Organized by functional area (e.g., inventory management), we use the Checklist to evaluate:

    - the skills of system users

    - business processes (procedures and controls)

    - the helpfulness of software functions (which sometimes aren't so helpful, and require a work around)

    - use of, or need for, technology in the warehouse

Then we make best practices recommendations for improvements that are tailored to the client's way of doing business, and result in large, fast benefits. And we ensure success by developing an implementation plan and helping the client's team implement the recommendations.

The extra profit from just one of our improvements quickly pays for this service.
