Warehouse & Inventory Management
It’s a difficult thing for companies to trust their valuable products into the hands of a third party warehousing and distribution provider. We understand that you want your valuable inventory to be properly cared for, tracked and accurately reported on. NPF prides itself with managing our client’s inventory at a 99.9% accuracy level. This may be hard to believe which is why we offer you a money back guarantee should your inventory not add up.
How can we do this?
NPF operates in a very strict environment following the principles of APICS – A society of Supply Chain Specialists. Every product receipted into our facilities are verified, documented and entered into our WMS in real time. Your product is allocated a tracking number which allows us to track its movement within our facilities.
Cyclical stocktakes are performed on all stock between 2 & 8 times per year. We do this by working with you to allocate an A, B or C rating to each of your products. This allows us to count your “A” products more frequently than your “B” products and your “B” products more frequently to your “C” products. Our system manages, tracks and reports on the entire process.
