Spend less time sourcing, buying and managing inventory

Streamline inventory from source to lab bench

All aspects of inventory management demand considerable amounts of time. From procurement, receipt, storage, replenishment of materials and internal distribution to optimisation of stock levels, the entire process becomes a complex, multiple-department effort. Ultimately, this ends up conflicting with what researchers or production team members need most from inventory management: to have rapidly available the products they need at the point of use.

Even with a dedicated inventory manager, significant improvements can be made with the assistance of a managed service. For example, saving time and money through the opportunity to outsource tasks to a complete supply chain for more fluid and efficient procurement management. However, you may be hesitant to rely on a third party, asking: will an outside company understand my inventory values and urgency? Can it accurately source the myriad products needed by my researchers? How can I ensure that I remain in control of already established procedures and KPIs?

These concerns are not only addressed by Avantor Services, but have shaped the way we work with you to maximise your inventory procedure within your means. From unique inventory management software to proven management models, Avantor Services can deploy a range of solutions that help you get the results you want.
