A modern stockroom, no matter the size, can be a fury of chaos during busy hours. A truly intuitive inventory tracking system — like SIMMS — has to be used methodically in order for its benefits to be noticed. Before they grab, they need to tab: first the knowledge that Widget One will be used in the project or in the shipment, then the entry of the use of Widget One into SIMMS, and lastly the physical removal of the item from its storage location. It seems to be a simple philosophy, but in moments of rush and madness entries are forgotten, so they must be done FIRST, not last.

Get Inventory Off Your Back

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

Many new methods and practices regarding inventory appear all the time, and older systems are falling into disuse because they often create more problems than they solve. If you have inventory in your holding areas for long periods of time then you’re not making back the costs of those goods, never mind the profits included in your sales prices. Your suppliers/vendors/manufacturers require — and provide — storage space for the items they produce or fabricate. With every customer order that comes in, why not take advantage of the suppliers’ storage instead of using yours? Contact KCSI today to learn how to make yourself more profits while keeping your on-site stock concerns to a minimum. Inventory shouldn’t sit and weigh you down — it should sell and make you money.

Where IS That Thing…?

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

Countless times, items ordered into stock get placed wherever convenient — on the corner of a shelf, a bench beside where it is supposed to be, into a bin with other items whose packaging looks similar. Misplaced or missing stock can become a thing of the past if you employ two things at your business. One is an inventory employee who is responsible and understanding of the stock system you have implemented. The second is SIMMS Inventory Management software who let that employee do their job. Whether using a data collector on their belt, a wireless laptop tucked under their arm or a desktop computer functioning at the Receiving Desk, SIMMS will help your business succeed in making sure that every widget matches your budget. You should never settle for anything less.
