ControlPoint is the new inventory management solution from MSC Industrial Supply Co - combining MSC’s existing suite of software, hardware and service expertise into a unified inventory management portfolio that allows customers to leverage technology to achieve greater visibility and control over their Tooling, Consumables and MRO spending. The result is improved productivity and profitability across the often disparate supply chains.

 

In complex manufacturing and service environments, many companies do not know the extent of the inventory they possess, where it is physically located in their operations, and how best to use it.

“Effective inventory management plays a critical role in a company’s business strategy and -- if done well -- can offer a significant competitive advantage. Serving as a strategic partner to manufacturers and other customers, we offer a strategic combination of inventory management solutions and industry expertise to help them navigate complex supply chain issues,” said Bill Welch, MSC’s Inventory Management Director. “We are continuously looking for ways to bring greater value to our customers, which is why we’ve packaged our inventory management solutions under one brand which will allow us to choose the right solution for each unique circumstance, and help make these services more accessible to all of our customers.”
