Vendor Managed Inventory pros and cons

We’re getting many requests for our VMI partnerships service right now. We’ve found many people require a simple way to get up to speed on this technical logistics area, so we’ve got a range of new materials to help.

It might seem counter-intuitive to outsource your full supply chain logistics, but handing off this operation to an expert provider allows you to unleash the full insights and benefits of the vendor managed inventory system.

Acorn provides a bespoke install and process for each of our clients. We provide a full consultation along with install of appropriate technology and processes. You can view a full Slideshare of our vendor managed inventory ppt below.
