Inventory Control Systems
Don’t wait for a problem to kickstart an inventory control system.
Inventory is the wholesaler’s largest liquid asset. Wholesalers are often operating 24 hours a day and major portions of the wholesaler’s workforce are short-term and relatively transient. Inventory control is all about effective process design and the definition of responsibilities to minimize the risk of inventory loss.

- Auditing all inventory movement processes to see the current state of the inventory control
-
- Inventory ordering
- Receiving
- Breakage
- Picking/checking/loading
- Driver check-out, check-in, and route settlement
