Smart Inventory Control Required for Competitiveness and Growth
The wholesale distribution industry is changing rapidly, and traditional inventory management systems may not be agile enough to keep up with your needs. A smart inventory control system such as Acumatica Cloud ERP offers the agility and versatility you need to remain competitive and continue to grow your business.
Maintaining an inventory with a balance between incoming and outgoing can be a challenge and managing it efficiently without disruption to your business is a must. True inventory control can help you manage your goods while avoiding obstacles and slowdowns, thus speeding up the entire process.
Inventory Management 101
Basic inventory management often begins with a simple system such as order-point, in which a purchase is automatically triggered when the number of items falls below a designated threshold, or two-bin order point which has a container for your main supply and one for your backups and automatically triggers a reorder when the backup container is accessed.
These are simple systems and work fine for small businesses, but as your business grows and your inventory logistics become more complex, you need a higher level of inventory control.
True Inventory Control
True inventory control helps with better inventory cost management, improved customer satisfaction, a higher fill rate, and increased profitability. All this should be accomplished with less stress and hassle.
How can you tell if your manufacturing and distribution business is ready for true inventory control with Acumatica Cloud ERP? Keep reading to see how one of our clients, Tayse Rugs, made the move that resulted in impressive growth for their company.
Tayse Rugs is an importer and wholesale distributer of Turkish rugs. Their clients are some of the world’s largest retailers. They process thousands of orders a day and were looking for the best way to control their inventory.
