VIRTUAL STOREROOM SYSTEM
VS (Virtual Storeroom) delivers virtual inventory services that break the physical barriers of individual facilities and provides visibility to materials virtually wherever they are. Unlock the value of your E&O (Excess & Obsolete) inventory through a marketplace approach presenting your available stock to others who can use it. Search available items at other locations to maintain your operations and potentially get a great deal in the process.
When implementing our programs, Turtle Integrated Supply calls upon our decades of experience in integrated supply and materials management to improve your inventory management strategy. Through our “Share the Spare” program, you can link parts across your organization and with other Turtle clients by viewing virtual storeroom system data through our tracking technology from a single point, no matter where items reside. View external E&O inventory in a “virtual stockroom” from other clients for possible purchase or list your own E&O for asset recovery opportunities. This approach speeds the search for rush materials by eliminating sourcing in the marketplace.
NEXT LEVEL MRO INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
IMPROVE INVENTORY VISIBILITY & MATERIAL FLOW
Companies across industries are looking for efficiency when managing space for MRO material while avoiding the cost of poor service levels or physical expansion for operations that don’t contribute to profitability. One way is through virtual warehouse services that leverage external support and expertise with Turtle responsible for your MRO inventory management and space management practices.
Flexible and scalable bulk storage based on business needs can reduce material costs by supporting the purchase of larger quantities of high-volume, critical, or high-cube products that need additional space to hold. Turtle can also store your bulk items off site and manage your spares. Our warehouse becomes your kitting area so you can plan ahead for shutdowns and receive materials exactly when they are needed.
The value of VS can be measured in many ways and support a foundation for continuous improvement. Key benefits to look for:
- Improved Inventory Visibility: view local/regional/national stock via virtual stockroom management software
- Inventory Reduction: eliminate duplicate, slow moving, and obsolete stock
- Lead Time Improvement/EOE: leverage off-site inventory, potential for reduced (or no) stop time
- Sustainability: reduced premium freight costs
- Regional Storage/Consolidation: space cost reduction and potential for a storeroom redesign
- Inventory Carrying: on-hand carrying cost spread across stocking locations
- Improved Maintenance Productivity: No longer quoting, time savings, increased wrench time
- Deterioration/Perishable: Increase turns on products with a lifespan
- Data Governance: Global P/Ns, primary SKU from vendor properly matched to customer part numbers
