EFFICIENT, COST EFFECTIVE
INVENTORY SOLUTIONS
MANAGING WORKSITE INVENTORY CAN BE A
TIME CONSUMING AND COMPLEX JOB – AND
WITHOUT THE RIGHT SYSTEMS AND TECHNOLOGY
IN PLACE, IT CAN BE A TASK PRONE TO ISSUES
AND UNNECESSARY ADDED COST.
Engaging with a specialist company such as
NZ Safety Blackwoods allows you to leverage
global sourcing capabilities, a strategic national
footprint, inventory management technology, and
over 60 years of industry experience, to deliver
customised solutions that will improve productivity,
streamline your operations, and most importantly,
save you money.
NZ Safety Blackwoods has a range of inventory
control solutions that can be tailored to suit your
work site – it can set-up a complete on-site
mobile store; provide the technology and product
to efficiently fit out your existing store; or provide
customised vending machine technology – from
standard, to sophisticated - at key locations
to ensure quick, managed access to high-use
consumables.
On-site store set up and facilitation
If an existing distribution hub or store is not
readily available, it can work together to design a
customised solution that utilises the company's
modified mobile container stores or bulk storage
solutions.
These can be deployed on-site at the point of
use, complete with reliable inventory management
systems and scanning solutions to ensure the
immediate availability of all your needs.
As well as providing a smart physical set-up, NZ
Safety Blackwoods can provide dedicated on-site
facilitators to manage the sourcing and distribu-
tion of goods; and provide full reporting on stock
usage, spend allocation, budget tracking and
more.
Smart inventory technology and reporting
“Our team can efficiently fit out your existing store
with a range of customisable scanning and mobile
phone app-based solutions, designed to manage
allocation, inventory replenishment, stock takes,
assessments and more; plus stock it with a comprehensive
range of product,” says NZ Safety
Blackwoods.
Smart technology gives you total inventory control,
ensuring you understand your product usage,
therefore improving accuracy of supply and
shortening delivery times.
Extensive reporting is available to help you understanding
volume by location, contractor or task,
with the ability to provide accurate reports so you
can on-charge contractor spend if required.
“We also have the ability to provide consolidated
invoices and reports by cost centre, purchase
order, usage, KPI or daily spend as well as
monitoring spend patterns for use in future shut
downs or audits.”
Vending Solutions
A broad range of customised vending machine
technology, designed specifically to automate and
control the distribution of PPE and consumable
items at key locations on site, can ensure efficient,
managed access to product, 24/7.
From standard vending machine stock dispensers
to sophisticated RFID tracking systems, these
electronic solutions improve processes and offer
benefits including increased monitoring through
authorisation levels; stock and access limits; and
increased accuracy in stock counts.
Vending technology also provides access to
real-time data, reducing downtime by eliminating
stock outs and ensuring stock can be replenished
efficiently.
Project and Shutdown Services
All inventory control solutions are scalable and can
be adapted to suit specific projects or shutdown
requirements.
“We can help keep costs down by ensuring supplier
consolidation and product rationalisation work is
completed prior to engaging contractors; by using
a charge-on-use approach that requires no outlay
of capital; and by eliminating any cost incurred from
excess stock by managing its removal at the end of
a project.”
Experienced team
The experienced team of specialists have broad
experience across a wide range of complex
industries – giving them a unique ability to advise
on, source and supply unusual or specialised
tooling or equipment, plus assist in the distribution,
management and monitoring of it being used on site.
They can help you ensure any health and safety
standards, or legislative requirements are met – by
sourcing compliant, fit-for-purpose stock; and by
helping implement any controls or training required
before items are used.
Work with NZ Safety Blackwoods to design a
customised inventory control solution that utilises
experience; stores and warehouse solutions; on-site
facilitation services; and smart scanning technology
and reporting – to minimise costs, improve productivity
and streamline inventory management for your
business.
