Many companies struggle to manage their inventory effectively, not knowing that there are simple solutions right at their fingertips. Industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, utilities and fleet maintenance, to name a few, all require timely access to supplies, including office supplies, personal protective equipment, tools and parts. Regardless of the inventory item, ineffective management can result in excess inventory and carrying costs, unnecessary purchases, stockouts, and more. Failing to account for the accurate usage of inventory items can dramatically impact your business.
The challenge for many companies is that there doesn’t seem to be a one-size-fits-all solution for tracking these items. Inventory requirements often include items of varying size and value, from disposable earplugs to reusable items such as drills and circular saws.

The flexibility to vend various items within a single solution gives customers added control over how they manage their inventory. Not only that, but point-of-use vending helps to improve safety and regulatory compliance as end-users have 24/7 access to the material they need to work safely. Customizable user permissions and restrictions provide increased control over item usage to further minimize shrinkage and waste. Other benefits include:
- Reduced consumption
- Saved time with point-of-use dispensing
- Streamlined purchasing
- Tracked inventory usage
Implementing a solution like this is easy and installation takes hours, rather than days. In fact, a company’s inventory data can be preloaded onto each machine minimizing unnecessary downtime. Additionally, the 1sourcevend touchpad comes with a built-in Verizon card for immediate cellular use and improved security, even without wi-fi or a hot spot.
No matter the item, we can help you better manage your inventory for maximum profitability. If you would like to learn more about our powerful software and flexible industrialvending options for better inventory control, request a free online demo today.
