Inventory Management

We use technology to help our customers expedite the decision making process - giving you the ability to make inventory allocation decisions within minutes instead of days

As retailers and consignees push to decrease their on-hand inventory and manage orders for just-in-time fulfillment, delivery windows are becoming shorter. We also know that, more than ever, manufacturers and retailers require constant visibility to their inventory, while retail shipping compliance has created greater demand for electronic integration, inventory tracking and a concise understanding of order delivery requirements.

This is all available through the Trade Direct Distributions Portal - which combines our Warehouse Management System (WMS), Transportation Management System (TMS) and Scan Links (document imaging) -- providing you with immediate visibility to your inventory and order status. You can also access electronic reports on-demand or we automatically send standard Bills of Lading for shipment confirmations, inbound receipt confirmations, single day shipment detail reports and more.
