Proactive Inventory Management
Contact An ExpertOur Process
Create a digital inventory catalogue
Using our LINK™ technology, we create a catalogue as robust as your needs demand. We recommend including, at minimum, categorized groupings, a short description of each asset (including condition), and photos. The resulting visibility, classification, and search ability allows for ease of reporting and decision making. Depending on your strategy, you can also include request capabilities and other enhanced features.
Establish a plan for redeployment
A successful strategy requires an understanding of asset depreciation, redeployment value, donation and recycling options, and storage ROI. Our team will help you create a plan that will not only minimize cost, but also, maximize gains on corporate social responsibility initiatives.
Powerful Visibility to Your Inventory
Our warehouses have the space and security you need, while our technology helps you make strategic decisions about your inventory. Photo documentation, digital catalogs, request capabilities, and classification tools help you make educated decisions and control inventory costs.
Dynamic Warehouse Management System
Planes’ dynamic warehouse management system enables us to provide full visibility to receipts, current inventory, allocated inventory, and outbound shipments. Items are tagged and located electronically during the inbound process. During outbound picking, our teams manage orders via handheld scanning devices to ensure pick accuracy.
Custom Inventory Management Methods
Whether your inventory features 2 SKUs or 2,000 SKUs, our system supports a broad spectrum of data points. Planes will work with you to understand and build out a comprehensive item master to ensure we capture the data points that are meaningful to your operation. We can also adjust inventory management methods that make sense to your product flow. Our system supports First In/First Out (FIFO), First Expired First Out (FEFO), and Last In First Out (LIFO) control methods.
Intuitive Inventory Management Platform
Planes offers full visibility to your inventory via LINK™, our online platform. During implementation, we will discuss your needs, review options for platform views and reporting, and select the tools that make the most sense to you and your team. We can also provide ongoing inventory life cycle views, as well as par level alerts to assist in the procurement process.
