Hi! I am Chris and I am Anthony
-
and we are here to show you what good
-
looks like when using
-
simpler tools to conduct your
-
morning gap scans. Gap scan is about
-
2 things.
-
Having the best availability on show
-
for our customers
-
and keeping an accurate stock file
-
Conducting our gap scan in the morning
-
allows us to get an accurate view of our
-
stock position after fill has occurred
-
and before customers begin to shop
-
in large numbers
-
It allows us to take action on gaps
-
and investigate and fix inaccurate
-
inventory
-
The great thing about simpler tools is
-
that
-
you can scan all your gaps and lows and do
-
investigative checks all in your one
-
morning walk
-
and all on on the one screen
-
Simpler Tools will take you through
-
the process all in three simple steps
-
First you walk the aisle and scan all
-
of your gaps
-
Plus any required lows and items
-
you want to check
-
Then Simpler tools will guide you to
-
check other places
-
where stock might be located
-
like ends of locations and the stock room
-
and finally Simper Tools will help
-
you take action
-
by either adjusting your stock file or
-
creating a pick list for you to fill from
-
Before we get started lets take a look
-
at the 2 golden rules
-
1. Only adjust inventory when can be sure
-
that the adjustment is correct
-
Availability is the most
-
important measure
-
for our customers
-
and our stock file accuracy
-
is the most important driver of this
-
So, if in doubt
-
Don't stock out
-
If your department isn't properly set up,
-
don't do a gap scan.
-
Conducting a gap scan if your load is not
-
completely filled
-
or if your stockroom
-
is in
-
a mess will make it impossible to find and
-
count stock accurately.
-
it's more important to
-
Remember, as a rule
-
do fewer adjustments
-
accurately than lots of
-
adjustments inaccurately
-
In other words, quality over quantity
