WEB-VV enables easy access to inventory data from a distant location |
Stock keeping and transport of raw materials are often the biggest cost factor for a company. With the business model Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI), both customer and supplier benefit from the close interaction of their processes. The basic prerequisite for effective inventory monitoring is reliable measurement data logging and the supplier's ability to gain access to the inventory data of the customer.
VEGA offers the most optimal sensors for level measurement of liquids and bulk solids. The measurement data are made available by signal conditioning instruments on site or by telecommunication via standard interfaces (Ethernet, Modem, GSM, GPRS). This has advantages for both sides. The plant operator always has access to the critical data he needs for production control. The supplier, on the other hand, can regularly enquire inventory data from a distant location and fill up stocks when required. WEB-VV is a user-friendly inventory visualisation system that is just as suitable for company networks as it is for worldwide measurement data logging. The spectrum of applications for WEB-VV is very broad. The first pilot applications with the VMI solution are already successfully running in flour mills and tank farms. This business model can be easily applied to any application in the food and petrochemical industries, at building materials suppliers, as well as in the environment and recycling industry.
