Counting takes a day the store cannot spare
Barcode counting needs line of sight and one item at a time.
Retail & loss prevention
Retail inventory & stock accuracy
A handheld sweep reads a whole section without line of sight, so a full count stops being a Sunday-night event.
Hardware sourced to order. The design below is standard practice for this application. We have not yet deployed it in the Philippines, so we scope it against your site and say plainly which parts are new ground for us.
Where it hurts today
The problem this is built for
The system stock and the shelf disagree
Which turns into stockouts on lines that are selling and overstock on lines that are not.
Nobody can find a specific unit
Especially in a stockroom where similar items sit in similar boxes.
Replenishment runs on someone noticing
Rather than on a shelf figure anyone can check.
How it works
Four steps, in this order
- 01
Tag at receiving
Labels are encoded and applied as stock arrives, or ordered pre-encoded from the supplier.
- 02
Sweep with a handheld
A rugged Android terminal reads dozens of tags at once, no unpacking and no alignment.
- 03
Reconcile to your system
Counts are matched to the stock figures in your POS or ERP, with variance listed by line.
- 04
Locate on demand
A search mode points staff to a specific unit instead of sending them to look.
What gets installed
Hardware and software
- Handheld UHF terminals
- General UHF labels and garment hangtags
- Desktop encoder
- RFID middleware and ERP or POS integration
Exact models are specified against your site. Read range, tag material and mounting all change the answer.
What you get back
Outcomes
- Full counts in hours rather than days
- Shelf figures accurate enough to replenish from
- Faster location of individual units
- The same tags support loss prevention later
