VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory) has become central to the OnSite efficiencies in
industrial operations ensuring stock levels are kept to necessary levels to cover
the urgent and crucial need for consumable items during peak periods and maintenance
shutdowns.
Blackwoods implemented its first managed warehouses over 20 years ago and now have
over 400 OnSite facilities in place across Australia. We use that experience to
provide you with a range of OnSite supply solutions and facilitation services to
help you to reduce in-process inventory and its associated costs.
While products are stored OnSite, a Blackwoods OnSite Facilitator is responsible
for maintaining stock at pre-agreed maximum and minimum levels. Stock depleted between
visits is recorded and the system is updated and dispatches an order.

Our resources, onsite, when you need them!
We understand that every customer has different requirements for how stores are managed,
and Blackwoods can cater for every situation.
Blackwoods allows you to concentrate your efforts on what you do best – and let us what
we do best. We can provide permanent personnel or OnSite Facilitators to manage every
aspect of the store including controlled stock allocation and replenishment, stock
level adjustments and stock taking, sourcing and procurement non-stocked parts, and
usage and compliance reporting.
Keeping consumables and critical parts at upstream work stations and workshops can
reduce user frustration and downtime, but only if they are well managed and accurately
replenished.
* Reducing time and resource costs of operating your own stores
* Simplifying transactions
* Improving reporting capability and accuracy

successful project management. Blackwoods can provide customised reports detailing
information that’s important to you.

quantities purchased, stored and allocated. Variance reports highlight unbudgeted or
unauthorised usage offering greater control of supply costs.
* Cost Reporting makes it easy to understand the total cost of supply and services
detailing pricing and applicable discounts.
* Cost Downs and Savings Reporting identifies, measures and documents opportunities
to reduce the total cost of supply through low-cost product alternatives, quantity
discounts, brand consolidation and supplier rationalisation.
* Compliance and Exception Reporting assists in monitoring compliance to OHS & E
and brand specifications and helps to identify workers’ product preferences.
* KPI Summary Reporting allows you to measure Blackwoods’ performance against agreed
targets including DIFOT, delivery and invoicing accuracy, product quality, cost
savings, contract fulfillment and special order lead times - confidence that
Blackwoods can meet All Your Workplace Needs.

can dramatically increase productivity and reduce downtime. The proper selection of
components is crucial to the performance of the overall assembly.
The consequences of incorrectly specifying a hose assembly can be costly. Plant
downtime, environmental impacts, clean up costs and potential operator injuries are
just some of the adverse effects of incorrectly specified hose assemblies.

Colour Coding
Colour coding small and transportable parts like chain in company colours makes
them easily identifiable and can help to significantly reduce shrinkage. Colour
coding machinery and equipment like chain blocks can help workers to more readily
identify differences in operational use such as load capabilities and weight constraints.
