Vendor Managed Inventory
Programs
Compare all of Bamal's inventory management approaches side by side and find the right fit for your facility - from traditional VMI to IoT-automated replenishment and Pay Per Build.
Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI)
Vendor Managed Inventory is the best way to shift the burden of managing the large supply base and requirements associated with your C-class production items. Our VMI programs range in size from small to large and simple to complex. Because no two manufacturing facilities are alike, each program is custom tailored to meet your specific needs. Options include Dock-to-Stock/Milk Runs, In-Plant Stores, and Single/Multi Bin Systems with barcode or RFID technology.
- Programs scaled from small and simple to large and complex
- Custom tailored to each manufacturing facility
- Dock-to-Stock, Milk Runs, In-Plant Stores, Single/Multi Bin Systems
- Barcode and RFID technology options

VMI/Point of Use (POU)
The unique Bamal POU system embodies the best features of each management strategy to form a system custom tailored to the client's unique operating characteristics and requirements. This hybrid approach delivers components directly to the point of use on your production floor, combining the efficiency of vendor management with the precision of point-of-use delivery.

IoT - Automated Bin Replenishment
Bamal's IoT-enabled replenishment solutions use weight-based sensors with cloud-based software for real-time inventory monitoring. Monitor levels from smartphones, tablets, or computers. The system operates independently of your ERP systems, eliminating manual counts, preventing stockouts, and keeping your production lines running without interruption.
- • Weight-based sensors with cloud-based software
- • Real-time monitoring from any device
- • Operates independently of ERP systems
- • Eliminates manual counting and prevents stockouts
Pay Per Build
Pay Per Build is the path to zero inventory. This model consolidates the cost of all supplied parts into a single invoice after consumption on the assembly line. Your component costs align directly with production output, simplifying cost accounting and reducing waste compared to traditional VMI approaches.
- • Path to zero inventory
- • Single invoice after consumption on the assembly line
