Optimize productivity and efficiency by minimizing time and resources spent on materials handling with Gescan Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI). Our VMI solutions are a simple way to maintain appropriate stock levels while streamlining inventory management, optimizing order procurement and costs, consolidating invoices and better anticipating inventory needs.
Replace stock by scanning item barcodes using our mobile app or handheld scanners. By scanning, you’re directly registering the order into our system, reducing processing time. Our VMI is a seamless experience for those who regularly order from us or want to hold stock. We provide labels and create books tailored to your needs for scanning and reference, including multiple VMI books and labels for contractors with numerous vehicles in the field.
Our VMI services accommodate a wide variety of site requirements and security scenarios, including where mobile connectivity or no connectivity is available, and on sensitive sites such as Data Centres. While our mobile app is most convenient, our team will use handheld scanners where cameras are prohibited. When it comes to special access site conditions related to PPE, FOB, drug testing, safety courses, and cleaning and disinfection protocols, Gescan ensures compliance with even the most rigorous guidelines.
