What's a VMI?

What is Vendor Managed Inventory - VMI?

ISSCO, INC. offers VMI solutions customizable to fit the needs of each customer. Our goal is to work alongside you to streamline your manufacturing processes. With our VMI services, the customer determines an agreed-upon amount of inventory to be stocked on location and at ISSCO. We are committed to ensuring our inventories are reflective of the customer’s historical annual usage. We even take it a step further and offer a consignment VMI option, which allows you pay for the product after it has been used.

By eliminating the burden of purchasing fasteners on a daily basis and relying on ISSCO for their inventory levels, our customers have experienced improved efficiencies, such as issuing fewer purchase orders, consistent availability of inventory, and reducing or eliminating routine stock-outs or line shutdowns. Our customers now have more time to concentrate on greater, more progressive projects for their company.
