Automated Replenishment

Good supply chain management requires a careful watch on the flow of product down the supply conveyer. To ensure an optimal flow of products through the supply channel, products must be on the shelf before the end customer needs it. At the same time, inventory is one of the supply chain's greatest costs. Knowing when and what to order requires a great deal of experience and sophistication. Traditional methods of inventory management have been cost prohibitive.

At the heart of Pan-Pro's supply chain software is fully automated VMI software that uniquely determines optimal strategy for replenishment of each item. As the real world situation changes, the software automatically adjusts the strategy to continuously find the optimal approach for current replenishment. Once the goals are set, the dynamic, closed loop Pan-Pro VMI software plans and executes the replenishment process. The final output of the Pan-Pro VMI software is an order, not calculations for human review and adjustment.

Because orders are generated automatically when needed, there are no delays due to human processing. And as a result of the careful calculations underlying the order, the appropriate amount of stock is in place on the shelves. As a result, service levels and sales can climb while operational costs disappear. At the same time, your people are freed up to manage the exceptions and address business growth opportunities. That's exceptional service - for you and your customers.
