When you are working in a multi-site business whether that is a multi-site warehouse and storage facility or a multi-site restaurant or bar, making sure the business has what it needs when it needs it is paramount for service continuity.

Responsibly managing stock in a multi-site business requires some planning. Having a handle on your supply chain ensuring that ‘just in time’ stock comes in and is delivered to site on time is a part of a good waste management policy.

Having fully integrated software that shows real-time statistics of inventory in the warehouse allows for orders to be processed and received in time for use and enables the monitoring of what is being used and what is not.

This, in turn, keeps costs and wastage down as your business only orders what it needs.

Predictive models can be used for forecasting which self-learn to further reduce waste and mitigate against any user error for ordering.

Investing in this kind of infrastructure is a part of a profitable business continuity plan and whether you are a food and beverage chain or a food and grocery chain it could help particularly in times like this, where stock needs to be moved to ensuring it is used and not wasted.

Multi-site management of stock need not be complicated. Responsibly managing it means that your wastage will go down and profits up.
