Managing inventory costs in manufacturing? The specific identification method tracks each item’s actual cost from purchase to sale—no estimates, no assumptions. It’s the most accurate way to calculate the cost of goods sold, but the complexity means it only makes sense for certain operations.

Fix it before it breaks. That simple idea sets the basis for maintenance management and makes the difference between a manufacturing facility that’s constantly putting out fires and one that runs like clockwork. Preventive maintenance isn’t rocket science, but it does require changing how we think about equipment care and maintenance activities.

Inventory control, inventory optimization, inventory management – are they all just other words for stock replenishment? In a way, yes, but also, not at all! Let’s find out the difference.

While other shops are still paying to haul away perfectly good material, smart manufacturers are cutting costs by reusing what they already have in their manufacturing processes. Let’s dig into what makes closed-loop manufacturing work and why more shops are making the switch.

When a simple stock management system and a tangle of spreadsheets no longer supported his growing operations, Pennsylvania-based entrepreneur Robert Ogden knew it was time for a change.

Partial shipments are deliveries of single orders in multiple batches or stages, where different portions of the order are sent at different times instead of being fulfilled all at once. Let’s explore how to manage them both from the customer’s and the supplier’s perspective.

In today’s interconnected economy, supply chain traceability is becoming a critical requirement in more and more sectors to maintain trust and efficiency. In this guide, we look at the importance of supply traceability and how the right tools and strategies can help achieve it.
