Having the right item at the right time is the key to cost control. We do that by:

Analyzing global needs. Stocking inventory in the best locations to ensure seamless and value-driven assembly, distribution and returns management

Ensuring an accurate inventory. Detailed processes keep meticulous track of material flow to help reduce audits and re-counts

Sending automated alerts. Monitoring and flagging events such as when demand exceeds forecast, when certain items are received or when quantity falls below safety stock

It is said, a fast start is key to winning the race. We agree. Let everyone else play catch up. Our proprietary customer order portal, COMPASS™, developed and managed by our internal IT development team, is a robust and user-friendly tool for quickly placing orders and monitoring and managing supply chain activities online. COMPASS, along with ALOM BI, our proprietary business intelligence and data-analytics dashboard, provide real-time visibility, up to the minute tracking, actionable alerts and custom reporting across the entire supply chain. Additionally, the aggregation of historical data with real-time updates lets our customers review trends to refine future demand planning.

Visibility and Control Through Business Intelligent Technology

We have the systems and proven processes in place to provide highly-refined demand planning and real-time global inventory visibility. Our approach is to understand the flow and movement of materials from a high altitude and then zoom in to optimize that movement while reducing time to market and disruption risk.

Our data-driven inventory management technology puts customers ahead by anticipating and sending alerts far in advance to mitigate potential problems.

Collaborative Business Model

We believe the most successful customer/supplier relationships are collaborative and results-driven, rather than a contract strictly based on the lowest price.

With our collaborative business model, we are motivated to learn about our customers’ product development roadmaps, concerns, and unique challenges so we can improve operational performance and optimize their supply chain for maximum efficiency. Bottom line, we focus on collaboration to reduce costs and pass those savings on to our customers.
