Need something a little different? A product or service that isn't covered by the usual methods of procurement, then this is where our expertise as merchants can truly benefit your company or project. If we don't do it, then we probably know someone who does.
Under the Safecontractor scheme, businesses undergo a vetting process which examines health and safety procedures and their track record for safe practice. Those companies meeting the high standard are included on a database, which is accessible to registered users only via a website.
Over 210 major, nation-wide businesses, from several key sectors, have signed up to use the scheme when selecting contractors for services such as building, cleaning, maintenance, refurbishment or electrical and mechanical work.
Services
We offer services from Tool Sharpening, Power Tool Repairs, Vendor Managed and Consigned Stock through to Purchasing solutions
Consigned/Vendor Managed
Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) can be a boon to a company’s bottom line if you are aware of all the benefits involved. There is a wide range of VMI solutions, from simple bi-weekly walkthroughs to check stock packaging levels to blanket POs.
For most products, whether consumer goods or manufacturing parts, success means ensuring you have the right product on the shelf at the right time. But how do you ensure you have the right inventory levels consistently day in and day out? By keeping inventory high? This can be a costly option. If you have too much inventory, you risk having unused, unprocessed inventory that is subject to perishability, safety, and quality controls, or obsolescence, in addition to storage costs.
If there is too little inventory, you risk not having the product on the shelf and losing market share, incurring increased costs for expedited shipping, or having your entire production line come to a halt. That’s where the benefits of inventory management come in.
When we, the vendor have inventory at the customer site we periodically review (either remotely or physically) the inventory on hand and will restock the inventory when the vendor deems it necessary.
If you would like to discuss any requirements, contact our Sales team who will be happy to advise.
We Can Purchase On your Behalf
There are times when a company cannot order direct with a supplier, yet they are offering the product they need. This can be because the company does not have a credit account setup, or restrictions are in place where the supplier is non-approved by the company needing to purchase. This is where we can assist.
You source your own product/service and provide us with that quotation, those costs are yours and will not change. We then contact the supplier on your behalf to discuss the purchase. We will then provide you with our quotation for a handling charge to cover the administration of the sale, including any bank/card charges, organising the freight requirements and documentation.
This service is a great solution for those unforeseen ordering issues that can negatively impact on the day or indeed turn a standard job into an urgent one.
Contact our Sales team for further details or to discuss your requirements.
