Inventory Management Programs
However, since the purchase price for most packaging materials – corrugated shipping boxes most notably – declines as purchase volume go up, users have a strong incentive to “stock up”, sometimes leaving themselves in the position of warehousing anywhere from a two to six month supply of packaging materials.
Besides consuming excess space, committing to a large inventory of packaging carries the risk of obsolescence. If packaging requirements change due to the elimination of a SKU or a packaging redesign, the user may be left with unusable materials that have little or no value on the secondary market.
To help distribution centers and manufacturers in Arizona avoid these difficulties, Pioneer offers a variety of inventory management programs to help packaging users reduce cost, reduce risk, and put more focus on making, packaging, and shipping their products.
One of the most popular approaches to inventory management is setting up a Just in Time (JIT) program where we deliver small quantities in high frequency on a predetermined schedule. This allows customers a high degree of flexibility and normally results in a substantial gain in floor space.
We also offer a variety of vendor managed inventory programs to take some or all of the procurement and inventory management duties off the shoulders of our customers. These programs require a great deal of collaboration and lead to efficiencies that combine to reduce overhead and acquisition costs, as well as increase inventory turns.
