Facilities Inventory Control Software

What is Facilities Inventory Control Software?

Even in this age of just-in-time delivery, facilities organizations maintain an inventory of replacement parts for business continuity or efficiency reasons. Facilities Inventory Control Software is used by warehouse staff to manage the daily operations of storing and issuing replacement parts and materials.

Solutions that manage parts & supplies inventory will identify parts by their manufacturer, model or part number, a text description and an image. Inventory control systems define the physical location of warehouse bins and their contents to facilitate restocking and the fulfillment of "pick tickets" which are essentially a shopping list submitted by a warehouse customer.

A key component of Materials management software is to maintain an accurate count of on-hand inventory items to help facilities organizations make sure that they have sufficient quantities of critical items. Additionally, Facilities Inventory Control Software will revise the average cost of items to make sure that the warehouse operation doesn't lose money when prices fluctuate.
