Fastener Management Programs

SLIDEMATIC PRODUCTS has developed various inventory programs to ensure product availability to our customers. These programs can greatly reduce the amount of frustration and cost that is attributed to rush orders, overnight delivery, and shutdown lines. We have had excellent results will all of the following programs:

Blanket order stocking program - This program is best suited for those customers that have an excellent knowledge of the parts that are used consistently on an annual basis. We will manufacture part or all of your
annual usage and hold the parts in our inventory until you have requirements for them. This ensures that you will have parts when you need them, especially when requirements come up with little or no notice.

Consignment stocking program - This program is similar to the above except that the parts are inventoried at your own location. Parts will be invoiced as you use them. This program cuts down the cost of partial truckloads and rush shipments, Reduces inventories to daily levels and is extremely easy to institute and monitor..

Offsite stocking program - This program is for customers that have a large volume of parts but do not have the space for consignment inventory. We will inventory the parts at a slidematic operated warehouse near your location.

Minimum inventory levels - Another way to ensure inventory is to review all parts and supply us with a minimum inventory level for each one. We will track your inventory usage and watch for any parts that have fallen below the minimum.

Bin Stocking - Slidematic also has several types of bin stocking programs. We will not only stock parts for you we will also fill bins right on your assembly lines. This ensures that you will not run out of parts.

KAN BAN- This program is for customers that pick up with their own trucks. We will fill special re-usable containers with parts. Then just drop off empty bins for us to re-fill when you arrive for a shipment.
