Considering Transitioning to Vendor Managed Inventory? Read This First!

If you’ve been thinking about transitioning your inventory management over to a vendor managed inventory program, you likely have a slew of questions. Does the vendor you’re considering have access to a large number of SKUs? Do they take steps to ensure the quality of the class “C” components that they’re sourcing? Can they adjust stock levels, as needed, as new information comes to light? If these questions were asked of the team at ASF Components, our answer would be a resounding, “yes, absolutely.” In this post, we’re going to look at how our capabilities – and experience – can help you streamline your supply chain and make inventory management a breeze.
