This can depend on the type of vending machine, the volume of goods you use and how many you need on site.
Finance can be arranged to spread the purchase costs or a monthly rental fee can be applied.
From the entry level SlickStock systems, we service users spending as little as £1500 per month up to users spending close to £100,000 a month. We can tailor the service to an appropriate size for you.
We can get the entry level SlickStock systems in place in less than 10 days.
For vending machines, these require factory configuration and are dependent on a lead time so these can take up to 6 weeks.
Our Bronze level is free of charge, we offer silver, gold and platinum levels to suit how much involvement you want us to have in maintaining the system for you.
It is flexible to suit your unique needs, it is delivered by people who not only understand the principles of stock management but understand the industry and the products.
We will carefully scope out your needs and offer a solution that fits your business, if you don’t need something all-singing, all-dancing, we’ll be honest and not push you down that route.
One that works for you! There is not a one size fits all system but something that means you don’t run out of stock while at the same time don’t have large quantities of goods that gather dust is what we will work with you to achieve.
Where space is a constraint we can use set quantities but ideally we use the intelligence of the software to calculate usage levels and automatically increase and decrease the stock levels as your work changes
Either by booking out everything as it’s used or regular stock checks, you only pay for what you use during a period and we can top up with more or less if your volumes vary. It is no extra cost to you if you need to increase stock ahead of a busy run.
Handheld devices are set up and run off Wi-Fi or a mobile SIM, these can then be configured to book out goods as they’re used or to do a periodic stock check. All barcodes are pre-populated and set up for you including for shelves and stock locations, all you need to do is get scanning as you use the system.
We can set this up so all stock is identified and separated out on the system giving full reporting and data analysis of what is being used where and always replenish each factory.
Clear reporting and visible stock quantities on the system allow us to reconcile stock balances with you on a regular basis. We work to identify any areas where goods go missing and help you eliminate wastage.
The SlickStock system captures a lot of rich data on stock usage and trends and we build tailored reports for the user to be able to analyse on a regular basis.
A further set of bespoke usage reports are available for users of our vending machines. We can also give you exclusive access to view/track live reporting on the vending machines you have available and even the ability to create and run your own reports. (Subject to Status)
We will give all your team who use the system training on how to operate things. In the first instance we visit on a regular basis to make sure things get started strong and we can make quick changes to get it right from the beginning. Ongoing we set up a regular schedule of visits and review points to ensure best value for all. And we’re always just a call or email away, no question is too small!
