Point-of-Use Solution Advantages

Nexiant’s point-of-use solutions provide a rapid and predictable ROI by controlling usage of MRO materials. Our POU systems make MRO transactions simple:

• Easy location of needed items and supplies right at the work area
• Physical control of MRO items with 24/7 access restricted to authorized personnel
• Error-free, automatic accounting of usage to the right employee, department and account
• Automatic inventory transactions with replenishment trigger, as appropriate
• Easy, consolidated restocking of POU systems with automatic inventory and order updating
• Optional Nexiant Touchscreen for enhanced usability and extended functionality, including catalog search, product information, work instructions, and Material Data Sheets

Nexiant can perform an MRO assessment to help you plan material placement and POU device needs. We can also provide a detailed ROI analysis to demonstrate the rapid payback of your point-of-use solution.

Complete MRO Inventory Solutions

Many MRO items, like safety equipment, fasteners, and consumables, are ideal applications for POU dispensing. Other MRO items, including maintenance parts, bulky and slow-moving items, are better suited to store room locations. Nexiant provides full capabilities to manage all these MRO categories, and takes advantage of handheld scanners to provide as much mobility, accuracy and simplicity as possible.

Either vendor or customer personnel can easily trigger replenishment of MRO items by scanning barcode labels on items or SKU storage locations.

Optionally, Nexiant can support advanced inventory management programs negotiated with suppliers to improve availability while limiting inventory liability, including flexible and powerful definition of program rules.

Nexiant offers additional capabilities to enable tool tracking and tool management, as well as integration with computerized maintenance management systems.
