December 14, 2009

It is that time of year once again. Yes the time of year has arrived where many businesses will shut down operations and begin the sometimes daunting task of taking inventory and conducting inspections. Emedco has everything you need to help inventory taking go as smoothly as possible.

It is never a fun time to take inventory and is usually a period that is dreaded by all those involved. But the more organized you and your business become this year when doing inventory, then the better off you will be for next year when this same scenario begins to unfold. Here are some various products that can help make inventory taking a bit less of a challenge:

  • Inventory Dots: Self adhesive color coded dots make the inventory process a snap. You choose the colors and the sizes of the corresponding dots and what each color means. These durable dots can make a world of difference when taking inventory and you may even want to use them to signify something other than order such as using red dots to signify defective.
  • Inventory Control Tags: Perforated cardstock inventory control tags are the perfect item to help you easily get up to speed on your inventory. They are sequentially numbered and have space available to have you or your employees record important information that you may need to about said inventory. The eyelets on the tags are reinforced which makes tearing all but impossible.
  • Asset Tags: These are self adhesive tags that can be used to number, identify, and keep track of your valuable assets. Identifying your valuables with your company name and number sequence ensures that everything will be accounted for when inventory updates. Because the asset tags are so durable it will be a breeze once the end of next year rolls around and it comes time to begin the asset inventory game all over again.
  • Inspection Tags: No matter what kind of equipment you have you will find a variety of inspection tags to choose from and will certainly be able to have your needs met. These inspection tags are crucial in knowing what has been and has not been inspected as it will help you know what steps need to be taken in order to get up to speed with not only your inventory, but your business’ safety as well.

Really when it comes down to inventory you have to have a game plan. Inventory is plain and simply a time consuming endeavor but it is an endeavor that must be undertaken.
