Crossroads RMC 0 12523 Article rating: 5.0

According to the World Economic Forum, half of all employees will require significant reskilling or upskilling by 2025.

Since most of your "how and why" walked out the door, how much longer can you get by on “tribal knowledge”?

LN & Baan Tip: Unlocking Efficiency: Embrace Cycle Counting for Smoother Inventory Management

When it comes to inventory management, the term "Manual Physical Inventory" might sound accurate, but it's not the best practice by any means. Instead, consider implementing "Cycle Counting" as a more efficient approach.

Why choose Cycle Counting over a full physical inventory? The key advantage is that Cycle Counting allows you to focus on counting a selected range of stock concurrently with your regular business operations. This method streamlines inventory management, minimizing disruptions to processes related to stock receiving, consumption, and dispatching.

With Cycle Counting, you no longer need to "freeze" your operations or have your staff work long hours during holidays. You can achieve accurate inventory counts throughout the year. Crossroads RMC is here to assist you in implementing Cycle Counting efficiently and seamlessly. Contact us today to get started at 800.762.2077. Say goodbye to the dreaded three words and embrace a more efficient inventory management approach!
