Many of our customers are distributors who used to send sales reps out with clipboards to manage their customers' inventory. When some of the distributors' customers demanded consigned inventory, the distributors gave the customers iPhones with the eTurns iPhone App. Now eTurns provides a record at the end of the month of what the customer used and the distributor invoices for that. The distributors save a lot of time and money moving from VMI to CMI, the customer is happier and inventories are optimized.

Yes, we can put sensors under bins of parts on a rack and then eTurns eVMI polls each bin and takes a weight measurement of those bins several times a day. eTurns eVMI does a complete physical inventory count multiple times a day with no human involvement. eVMI converts weight into quantity, compares the quantity in each bin to a minimum and suggests an order if the bin quantity is less than the minimum. It eliminates stockouts and overstock.
