AVAILABILITY AND FORESIGHT 

STOCK MANAGEMENT

The stocks represent that part of products that are a steady presence inside the warehouse: they are considered both as an advantage and a disadvantage

  • Advantage: they are materials that can be implemented in any kind of internal activity of the warehouse.
  • Disadvantage: they can cause the increase of maintenance costs.

Stocks allow a company to avoid the interruption of the production cycle, this is why it is important to plan good stock management and organization.

There are in fact several stocks categories:

  • Transit stocks: all materials inside the transport vehicle
  • Safety stocks: all materials that can be used if a sudden planning change happens
  • Cycle stocks: the amount of inventory planned to be used during a given period
  • Strategic stocks

 

What do we do?

  • Annual/rotary inventory management

PRODUCTION AND STOCK

RAW AND SEMI-FINISHED MATERIALS MANAGEMENT

All the actions made inside the warehouse are entirely referred to management, receiving, working and shipments of raw materials.

Workers who deal with raw and semi-finished materials management will have to deal with anything that includes:

  • Checking the stages of incoming and outgoing materials
  • materials distribution through departments
  • The materials marshalling inside the warehouse

Bracchi takes a lot of care to all stages regarding the life of the product, so anything that composes it until its sale.

Raw materials are all those components that can be bought or made. They are very useful because they can be used as a supply, in addition to be fundamental for the product’s final production.

Semi-finished materials are the next step after raw materials. Once taken from the warehouse, raw materials are prepared from the machines and manpower, in order to become semi-finished materials.
