About Mars Inventory Workstation
If you are a wholesaler or distributor, you already have an inventory system that provides data such as on-hand balances and sales history. It may even provide some reordering information. But you're still missing the critical information you need to survive in a competitive environment. You're missing the information you need to keep inventory down, yet maintain high fill rates. Mars analyzes purchasing decisions at the vendor or product group level. So you can keep inventories down, yet take full advantage of all vendor incentives and price breaks. For instance, if a truckload is needed, Mars calculates the total size of the order based on units, weight, volume, $ or any other pertinent criteria. Then it recommends how to fill out the load--even adding products that weren't in the original order! The Mars system builds an optimum purchase order quickly and intelligently. It distills large quantities of inventory, sales and vendor data into informed purchasing recommendations.
