Express Fasteners Vendor Managed Inventory Best Practices Technology Management Processes We use the most technologically advanced methods for managing client inventory. Tools like bar codes and tracking software are used to automate the process of inventory tracking and simplify the reordering process. Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Our vendor managed inventory program is EDI capable and allows for seamless communication with our customers. This EDI capability tracks parts inventories and forecasts when and where parts are needed. In turn, your business processes run smoothly without delays and much less paperwork! Just In Time Inventory (JIT) Using JIT principles Express Fasteners will replenish your fastener stock as required with regular deliveries. As part of this parts management framework we maintain inventories for our clients at our facilities. Bin Stocking Program Express Fasteners offers an exclusive bin stocking program to ensure you never run out of necessary parts. We’ll constantly replenish parts at your facilities, invoicing you only for the parts you use. This is a great way to reduce inventory costs and spread those costs out over time as dictated by your manufacturing schedule. Bar Coding Product identification is easy when each fastener is labeled with a bar code. Bar coding efforts help to simplify communication about individual products, including tracking, traceability and integration alongside our other vendor managed inventory capabilities and your internal processes.

Such efforts help reduce inventory stockpiles at your location(s) while maintaining appropriate reserves to continue operations.
