Description

VMI, which stands for "vendor managed inventory," is a system designed to streamline inventory management. When a customer's stock levels dip below a certain threshold, PathGuide’s Advanced VMI automatically generates a replenishment order. This order is sent to the vendor electronically, where it is usually confirmed, selected, packaged, and dispatched back to the customer. Furthermore, Advanced VMI can initiate automatic advanced shipping notifications, providing customers with crucial information to prepare for the arrival of their shipments. PathGuide’s Advanced VMI operates independently for distributors' clients or as an integrated feature of a warehouse management system (WMS). This innovation ensures that orders are placed with unprecedented speed, simplicity, and efficiency, particularly benefiting customers who frequently purchase the same items. Overall, the system enhances supply chain operations by minimizing downtime and maintaining optimal inventory levels.

Description

VoiceOrder Solutions offers a platform that enables independent food distributors and Direct Store Delivery (DSD) operators to efficiently manage voice ordering and real-time inventory tracking for the restaurants and stores they supply. Through a user-friendly mobile application, buyers can place orders using voice commands, verify each item, and submit requests according to the specific guidelines, stock-keeping units (SKUs), and pricing set by their distributors. Once an order is placed, distributors receive a digitized confirmation that is organized, uniquely numbered, and timestamped, delivered in various formats compatible with their back-office systems, such as email (in PDF, Excel, or Word formats), EDI, API, or QuickBooks. Additionally, restaurant users have the capability to monitor their inventory levels and adjust counts as they manage orders and deliveries. This innovative service transitions the process of repeated order intake from traditional methods like phone calls, voicemails, and emailed lists into a streamlined mobile workflow, ensuring that it complements rather than replaces existing distributor systems for inventory control. Ultimately, VoiceOrder Solutions enhances efficiency and accuracy in the ordering process, benefiting both distributors and their clients.
