Integrated Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI)
SmartVMI
Next generation VMI is:
SmartVMI
Most distributors offer VMI but only for the products they sell – NOT multi-supplier
Single supplier VMI is too proprietary – You are “locked-in” to the supplier (e.g. Fastenal)
Integrated VMI – Multiple-supplier VMI (all of your favorite vendors, brands and commodity groups)
