Stock control and warehouse management software
Transform your Stock control and warehouse management with an instant view of on-hand stock, available stock and shelf life status
For perishable food processing, it’s essential that stock tracking management data is 100% accurate SI’s Stock control and warehouse management can achieve this. You need a clear understanding of what you have and where, especially when your stock is split across multiple locations. Profit margins will be quickly undermined without data to understand the nature of all short shelf-life products, stock rotation and the specialist levels of care required.
If I was to summarise the biggest benefits we’ve realised since the implementation of SI’s food ERP and MES solution, it’s been all about transparency, streamlining operations, working leaner and smarter. And 100% transparency means that we have far less cash tied up in stock.”
Steve Bearfield, managing director, Bearfields of London
