Let\u2019s see how you can manage your inventory more simply and efficiently with CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System). \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your business will improve with CMMS by helping you ask the right questions and find the best answers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several problems can be linked to inventory management, including\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Excess or overstock of spare parts,<br>The absence of the right parts in stock at the right time,<br>The lack of rigor in the storage of your parts in your stores\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The effects of a CMMS on inventory management<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to maintaining an ideal level of parts (to reduce the value of your inventory to a minimum), CMMS allows you to track data in real time and anticipate replenishment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Identify the most frequently used (or least used) pieces of equipment with the software\u2019s built-in analysis tools.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The functionalities of the CMMS for inventory management<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Detailed part sheets: interface summarizing the information needed to use the consumables.\u00a0<\/li><li>Traceability: part traceable thanks to a QR code or a barcode.<\/li><li>Automatic replenishment: definition of a replenishment threshold allowing the automatic sending of an alert each time a part has reached its threshold.<\/li><li>Management of the entries and exits of the store: history on the movements of the parts to optimize the traceability.\u00a0<\/li><li>Reservation of articles in the stock: action defined according to the preventive needs.\u00a0<\/li><li>Multi-store and multi-vendor management: movement of parts between different partners and locations is possible.\u00a0<\/li><li>Detailed location data: precise visibility of the location of the part sought (e.g.: warehouse 1, shelf 4, drawer 2).<\/li><li>Detailed supplier files: interface to facilitate management and relations with partners.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Return on investment (ROI)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-m2i-chiffre wp-block-paragraph\">Computerised inventory management reduces stock value by <strong>10% to 20%<\/strong> on average, and procurement costs by 5% to 10%.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More efficient and simpler inventory management, reduced
