Buck & Hickman, UK distributor of tools, maintenance and health and safety products, has added the new Multi-Store CribMaster to its range of vendor managed inventory (VMI) solutions. With the potential to save users 20-40% on indirect material costs, the Multi-Store can not only save customers money but manages replenishment and stock levels effectively.
The Multi-Store is a medium security machine with shelving in various sized sections throughout the device. The glass doors on the front allow for visible access to the items which creates quick retrieval for employees. Once the door to a section is opened, the touch screen displays all inventory and stock levels. After an item and its quantity are chosen, the touch screen automatically updates the inventory and communicates directly with the supply chain.
