Auto Replenishment
Swagelok Northern California can enter orders for replenishment products into our customer's purchasing systems and/or periodically visit their facility to replenish their inventory. We can also provide reports with data such as total cost savings.
Collaborative Forecasting
Customers can link their forecasts with our fulfillment system to help ensure a steady supply of Swagelok components. We analyze a customer's historical and projected product usage to ensure high fill rates while avoiding carrying costs associated with overstocking.
Custom Kitting & Packaging
We can package components to our customer's specifications. For example, we can double bag components in our Class 100 Clean Room; bundle components; tag/label parts, and more. Such options can save valuable time over days, months, and years; cuts down on packaging waste, and more.
Vendor-Managed Inventory
VMI can provide savings by reducing stocking levels, which lowers carrying costs. It also helps reduce transaction costs (i.e. ordering, cycle counting, receiving). We help analyze current usage and identify minimum and maximum levels for inventory. Then a local team member is assigned to manage it.
