We Make Managing Inventory Easier
For many companies, the information you need to make inventory management easier is buried in multiple places or not easily accessible. We help medium-sized businesses get the right information in front of those who need it for decision making. Our dashboards are built and stored securely online using Microsoft tools.
How many days of supply (DSI) do I have?
What do I need to order soon?
How much of on-hand inventory is already committed to customer orders?
How much cash do I have tied up in inventory?
Do I have enough raw materials on hand to meet my 3 month forecast ?
Do I have any negative inventory items showing in my systems that I need to recount?
