Strategic Procurement

Inventory materials are generally segregated depending on their availability, price, and quantity.

With the drastic unforeseen changes happening in the chemical industry globally, it is very important to have adaptable procurement and inventory strategies for disruption-free production. We carefully evaluate each of the materials and will form a procurement strategy for each of the chemicals depending on your business needs and also will alert you if the strategy of the chemicals to be reviewed considering the global situation.

Inventory Management

Right Time

Securing the delivery of goods at the right time to meet commitments, but not so early as to incur unnecessary inventory costs. Raw materials are to be ordered and delivered at the right time so that companies can really focus only on production. Depending on the criticality of the material in terms of availability and the available sources, it is necessary to decide when to order and when to deliver.  Frequent changes in the global market and logistics made today’s situation challenging that unless one monitor and understand the lead time, it is difficult to avoid disruptions in production. We evaluate and study the raw material in terms of consumption and advise the right time.

Right Quantity

Logistics costs have almost doubled after Covid and it plays a major role in the landed cost of goods. Most of the suppliers are stressed in meeting their commitments to the customers as they are unable to run their production to its 100% capacity. To restore back the normalcy in the supply-demand situation globally, it may take a couple of years for suppliers.

Unless we maintain a close and respectable relationship with suppliers, it is imperative that the manufacturers face difficulties in running their production hassle / disruption-free. To avoid this, procuring the material in sufficient quantity and maintaining service levels while minimizing excess stock holding is very important in Inventory Management. We advise you on the right quantity how much to purchase and recommend safety stocks, implement stock replenishment systems, after careful study and evaluation of Demand.

In a chemical world, the material has a specific shelf life. Storing the chemical beyond its shelf life can cause damage to the warehouse and people who are working near and around the expired chemical.  We help you in getting rid of expired chemicals to keep your warehouse safe and ensure that these chemicals are destroyed at a very economical cost.
