VALUE ADDED SERVICES
COST IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Allow KEEP-FILL®
to Become Your Fastener Consultants.
We will assist you with all of your fastener needs from
Program Design to Implementation and Maintenance.
-
Standardization – Our system allows your team to focus on the task at hand rather
than spending their time verifying the proper components to be ordered or used
for any given application. Once your Plant Survey is complete, you will have
proper parts available for your applications eliminating the guesswork and
inconsistencies involved with ordering from a catalog.
-
Inventory Scheduling -- Our Inventory Management Specialists™
visit on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis to provide pro-active fastener
inventory management based on your individual service requirements.
-
Point-Of-Use Locations -- Increase the efficiency of your organization by housing
your inventory at the point-of-use rather than in a tool crib at your facility.
Our space efficient storage components make this easy and practical.
-
Speed -- When our Inventory Management Specialists™ are done scanning a bin location,
the information that is collected is sent via one toll-free telephone call from any
available plant telephone and the appropriate distribution center begins processing
your order.
-
Technical Services -- Automated Order Processing from Bin Scanning to Invoicing
available per customer requirements.
KEEP-FILL® Inventory Management Programs clearly provide cost improvements to our
customers, but how are these cost savings documented?
Unit price represents only 10% of the actual cost of a fastener. As a value-added
total supply solution, cost improvements are documented when products are standardized,
inventory is reduced and processes are streamlined.
Our team has developed a series of basic cost savings categories used to document
improvements. Basic cost savings categories are:
-
Procurement
-
Cost Reduction
-
Engineering/Training
-
Energy Conservation
-
Substitution
-
Price Improvement
-
Standardization
-
Surplus Buy Backs
-
Transportation
Your Savings Summary will be broken down by each cost improvement category above
and provided on a Monthly, Quarterly, or Annual basis. Savings will be submitted
to your purchasing department using either our standardized forms or customer
specific cost savings forms.
