Problem:
One of Quest’s key clients was challenged with the management of their PPE inventory in a general use free issue area. This particular customer had limited resources when it came to the human element of managing their PPE for their site. This client had several storage cabinets that several departments drew from to keep their workers safe. What they desired was a single source that could manage stock levels, fill them as needed on a regular basis, as well as introducing new and innovative products as they became available.
Consideration:
Quest worked with our client to determine minimum stocking levels for the products that were maintained in their free issue area. We then monitored, over a period of time, the product levels to determine the frequency to which we needed to stock their areas.
Solution:
What we were able to develop was a customized PPE stocking program designed with lean but robust inventory levels in mind. We are able to maintain a stock level that is acceptable to the operation of the facility while at the same time limiting the amount of space that is required. Quest’s territory managers and account representatives continually monitor levels, fulfill product orders as necessary, and use this area as a springboard to introduce new products to this facility.
Quest’s has experience and expertise managing PPE inventories. Our safety professionals not only have extensive product knowledge but they also now how to manage and maintain those inventories. Yet another reason you need to look to Quest when it comes to keeping your workers safe.
