What inventory management strategies does Ferguson Industrial use to increase MRO product availability and decrease investment?
- Multi-site leveraging – Our ASP provides inventory visibility across all company locations, so we can make strategic stocking decisions based on demand, lead times, and geography.
- Mitigating excess and obsolete inventory – Lean inventory management reduces overstock and increases available spend.
- Customizing deployment strategies – From vendor-managed inventory to storeroom management, dispensing machines, our experts customize deployment options based on your needs. This increases access and prevents stockout shutdowns.
- Accounting for total cost – It’s not only the cost of material, but also the less apparent elements that lead to total cost savings, such as handling/movement, obsolescence, transportation, administrative efficiency, etc.
- Improving the return on invested capital – Our experts increase your net operating profit by accelerating asset turnover, reducing management requirements, capturing detailed inventory data, and more.
