360IMS

360IMS is a full-circle Inventory Management Solution, that consists of seven key modules.

These modules allow companies to manage and monitor their stock by: 

  • Optimizing operational processes
  • Tracking inventory
  • Having oversight of the inflow and outflow of raw materials and end products
  • Managing their fleet/crew
  • Balancing supply and demand
  • Providing real-time Inventory Management Reports

How do clients make a sales request using 360IMS?

There are multiple ways the client can raise a sales order. They can send an email or text, call in the order, or complete a form, indicating their specific requirements. The Sales Department raises a sales order (SO). A sales order is the document generated by Sales Department (seller) upon receiving the client’s (buyer’s) request. A sales order can be for both products and or services.

360IMS ensures that the Sales Department has oversight of stock availability, without waiting for a detailed report for Warehouse Department. Thus, a client has less wait time for the requested product and a better overall experience.

Benefits of 360IMS

  • Mitigate against over-selling – Simplifies the verification process for stock quantity before placing a sales order. The availability of products can be confirmed using 360IMS
  • Avoidance of stock-outs and excess stock – Thresholds can be created to alert employees when raw materials should be ordered. This will ensure there is always enough raw material for the production team.
  • Transparency – Better process visibility, trackability, and auditability from Raw Material Transfer phase to Product Manufacturing phase to Product Distribution phase
  • Cost Savings – The ability to make more profitable business decisions ensuring greater cost savings
  • Fleet Management – The ability to schedule, monitor, and manage the distribution and collection of products

Product Management Module

The Product Management module where all the items used from the Product Database are entered i.e., raw materials and final product.

The listing of products can be imported from an external source such as an accounting software or manually entered in the application or a combination of both methods to provide the user with an extensive product listing.

The Product Management module contains all the pertinent data for each product such as:

  • Product Name
  • Product Details
  • Product Image
  • Unit Price
  • SKU
  • Stock Quantity
  • Stock Threshold
  • When the stock threshold limit is reached an automatic email notification is sent to the relevant manager to initiate the re-order process.

Vendor Management Module

The Vendor Management module functions similarly to a ‘Vendor Directory’.

In this module, all critical information for each vendor can be found. Additionally, any new vendors can easily be added to the database and or vendor details edited.

Some key vendor details captured are:

  • Vendor Name
  • Registered Name
  • Contact Name
  • Contact Email
  • Contact Number
  • Contact Address

Vehicle Management Module

The Vehicle Management module allows for the scheduling, monitoring, and management of the distribution and collection of products.

Thus, ensuring drivers are sent to the same general location, thus saving time and money. 360IMS also ensures companies have complete oversight of their daily / monthly activities and can manage their fleets.

For example, the 360IMS solution provides a detailed record of the stock loaded on each vehicle and confirmation of delivery. This information is also logged in the system and can assist with the coordination of deliveries in specific geolocations.

Pick-Up Management Module
