Stock Taking Solution: Introduce the Rental Barcode Solution Scheme
Million Tech has suggested a barcode solution to the client that would fulfill their need. The “Rental Handheld Terminal Scheme” was then tailor-made for them.
- We rented more than 40 sets of 2D barcode handheld terminals to the client for 2 weeks.
- We provided two training sessions for their staff in the use of Million Tech’s devices and systems for stock-taking.
- We customized the program to cater to the client’s workflow, and pre-installed all the necessary programs on the scanners before delivery.
- We also provided on-site support to discuss workflow with the client’s staff, in order to make sure that the stock-take process went smoothly.
Results: Smooth Completion of The Stock Taking Procedure
Within the Required Timescale and At an Affordable Price
The client was thoroughly satisfied with the procedure.
- This Barcode Solution was successfully deployed to the client.
- The stock taking process was successfully completed.
- This solution saved fixed asset costs for the client.
- This solution saved expensive agency costs for the client’s yearly stock-take.
- The solution enabled a systematic stock-take workflow by their own staff, making it easier to control the stock-taking process, cost and result.
Feedback: Rent Barcode Scanners Rather Than Purchase
The Importance of Stock Taking
Reflecting Business Reality
Stock taking assists in the assessment of whether or not your business plan is being properly executed. How many products did you sell? How much stock do you have of each product? Which items sell most? Which items sell least? Stock taking reflects the reality of your day to day business process as well as uncovering and eliminating internal theft within your business.
Creating a Business Forecast
With stock taking data, we can figure out which items are most popular with your customers. We can reveal your dead stock and control and improve your inventory. We can use the data to plan your orders accurately, in order to reduce wastage in the future.
Turn Inventory into cash
Often, products have a seasonal or expiry date. Fashion products are constantly changing and such stock is best cleared as soon as possible. Stock-taking can speed up the selling process and increase your profit.
