All of Advanced Inventory Solutions' primary services call for a partnering with a client. This allows you to benefit from the cost effectiveness of outsourcing and the flexibility and responsiveness of an internal operation. It does so in a timely manner and is customized to your specific standards and needs.
Retail/Financial Auditing is perhaps the most basic and popular of all inventory services. This service involves counting the physical inventory of your location using specialized equipment, and then processing the data to give you a complete report. We utilize laptop computers and laser printers to give you the best possible report. The final report is available at the conclusion of the count and is able to show comparisons with previous inventory results. Typically this type of inventory provides a compilation of inventory value, by department and section at retail.
Hospital/Pharmacy Inventory
Comprehensive, enterprise-wide physical inventory of pharmaceuticals and medical supplies in acute care facilities.
AIS uses highly skilled, HIPPA-trained, team leaders and team members equipped with the state of the art mobile technologies. We perform a comprehensive inventory analysis that allows us to complete the counts in an efficient, non-intrusive manner. We provide customized solutions based on the needs of the client and determine whether a financial count, NDC level count, or a mixture of both will be most advantageous.
Benefits
SKU/UPC Auditing provides the customer with a list of items in inventory as well as the quantity of each item by scanning the items bar codes. Values and item descriptions are also available. The final listing is left with the customer at the end of the inventory count. We can provide it on paper and/or on digital format. Results also may be downloaded from the the corporate office via our website within an hour of the completion of the the inventory.
Change of Ownership Auditing can be the most important inventory a business owner will ever have done. It is through this process that the buyer and seller come to agreement as to the value of the business and its inventory. This type of inventory is similar to a Financial Inventory but also includes a valuation of the business's supplies and facilities.
Price Verification may well be the most comprehensive and valuable service a retailer will ever experience. This audit is completed through the use of SKU/UPC Auditing along with the customer's willingness and ability to provide up-to-date and accurate software listings of each UPC code and its appropriate price. Upon completion of the audit our customers are presented with a list of all mispriced items in the retail location. Mispriced items are flagged when they are located, which facilitates the customer taking corrective action. Alternatively, we can generate new price labels as our crews encounter incorrect prices. This service may be combined with a Financial Inventory at a lower cost than performing these functions separately and is often called Master File Verification.
Top 100 Tracking is AIS's version of the true Cycle Count Audit. This is a specific product tracking or a randomized sampling, on a weekly or monthly basis, to provide management a precursor of potential problems.
Presentation Verification involves sending an AIS employee to your place of business for the purpose of evaluating the quality of the customer service and the appearance and cleanliness of the store, up to and including digital images of facilities. We can also check for security problems and are able to notify an appropriate contact person. This service gives you peace of mind, secure in the knowledge that your employees are treating your customers the right way, even when you are not present.
