“Like many other contractors, our inventory situation was getting out of control. Since we implemented Barnett’s VMI program, we have been able to focus on servicing customers rather than spending our time dealing with all of our many inventory issues. Barnett can even source our regional item needs. Plus, the fact that we can purchase our HVAC equipment from a single source has helped us get to where we need to be.”

Supply Chain SolutionsOption 2: Truck Stock ReplenishmentAre you carrying the right level of inventory on your trucks? Do your
techs still make too many stops at supply houses and home centers
to purchase products? Do you have the right product mix on your
trucks? Do you have an accurate record of daily product usage
from your trucks?
Barnett developed the Truck Stock
Replenishment program to increase
your productivity, decrease your
carrying costs, and save you
money. This program is designed
for contractors who do not need an
on-site representative, but would still
like to reap the benefits of better managed inventory.
Here’s how it works:
1. Your Barnett sales representative will conduct a needs
assessment to verify eligibility and ensure that Barnett’s Truck Stock
Replenishment program is a good fit with your business model.
2. Standard truck stock lists will be
created for each category of your
type of service vehicles. These lists
provide the foundation for truck bin
labels with Barnett part numbers
which will be created for placement
in each truck.
3. As your business technicians use inventory, they can manually
record or scan each of the items as they are used. At the end of
the day, the daily usage information is then provided and order
information is transmitted to Barnett for replenishment.
4. Once your usage amount has reached a predetermined point,
Barnett’s Truck Stock Replenishment program will automatically box
replenishment orders for your truck and consolidate the boxes for
your next scheduled delivery.

inventory is received by the contractor and easily distributed
to each service technician. To learn more about this version of
