Products and Services - VMI / Integrated VMI - Vendor Managed Inventory
Our highly qualified personnel assist the customer in organizing the stockroom area,
identifying current use of inventory as well as obsolete and surplus material. Then,
they create a planned procurement and bin management process customized for your company.
Electronic VMI brings the same state-of-the-art bar-coding technology we use in our
own warehouses. On a periodic basis, our inventory specialist monitors the quantity

to accomplish reducing paperwork, provide competitive and consistent pricing as well
as reliable quality, thus, lowering the total cost of doing business.
