Global Managed Inventory Programs

Stop counting bolts. We build the program around your floor — not the other way around.

How It Works

Flexible by design, not by default.

Our inventory management programs are tailored to each customer's specific needs and expectations. That flexibility is what gives Global Fastener a step up on the competition.

01

Traditional Scan & Fill

We scan your bins on a set schedule and replenish based on real usage — no guesswork, no manual reordering.

02

Customer Scans, Global Fills

Your team scans bins on your schedule; we receive the data and fill the order from there.

03

Global Scans, Customer Fills

We come to you, scan and assess your bin levels, and hand off a clear replenishment list your team executes.

04

Order Sheets or Scanning Board

Prefer a manual process? We work from paper order sheets or a physical scanning board — whatever fits your floor.

05

Kanban

Visual pull signals trigger replenishment exactly when you need it, keeping stock lean without risking a shortage.

06

Any Method That Suits You

Don't see your process listed? We'll build a program around how your operation already runs.

What We Manage

Replenishment, bin management, and Class C item tracking.

Once a program is in place, we handle the day-to-day: replenishment, bin management, and tracking the small Class C hardware that's easy to lose track of but impossible to run a line without. We use historical usage data and forecasting to set optimal inventory levels for your facility — the goal is fewer stockouts, less purchasing overhead, and better inventory turns, without you having to think about it.

For remote or harder-to-reach facilities, we've gone as far as placing our own people on-site — scanning bins, creating the order, and filling racks directly at the point of production. No two of our programs end up exactly alike, because no two facilities run the same way.

Need parts kitted or packaged as part of the program? Our custom kitting and packaging capabilities pair directly with any managed inventory setup — polybags, boxes, Plano boxes, or custom bins built to your bill of materials.

Why It Works

App-based tracking, real business results.

We've implemented the technology to manage your fasteners and Class C items so you don't have to.

  • DecreaseInventory, handling, and purchasing/receiving-related activities
