Strengthen Your Supply Chain with Montel’s High-Density Storage Solutions

Supply chain disruptions can strike from any direction—cyberattacks, logistical challenges, or natural disasters. While each disruption is unique, the impact on businesses is often the same: higher costs and reduced customer satisfaction. Montel’s high-density mobile racking systems can help you build a more resilient supply chain through better space management, allowing you to weather the unexpected while maintaining efficiency.

The Hidden Costs of Supply Chain Disruptions

Supply chain disruptions can force businesses to rely on more expensive suppliers or warehousing solutions, but the real losses come from missed opportunities. A study estimated that global businesses miss out on $1.6 trillion in potential growth revenue due to disruptions.

• Increased Costs: Pivoting to alternate suppliers or logistics increases operational expenses.
• Lost Revenue Opportunities: With each disruption, companies risk missing out on new market opportunities, impacting long-term growth.

Customer Satisfaction: The Unseen Casualty of Disruptions

On average, a single supply-chain disruption can decrease sales by 7%. Regaining lost customer trust and market share is a challenging process, and the cost of winning back customers can be substantial. The question for supply chain managers is clear: How can better inventory management help safeguard customer satisfaction?

Just-in-Time vs. Just-in-Case: Choosing the Right Inventory Strategy

You can’t control external disruptions, but you can control how you manage your warehouse space. More companies are shifting from just-in-time (JIT) to just-in-case (JIC) inventory models:

• Just-in-Time Inventories (JIT): This lean stocking approach helps to keep operating costs low but can make businesses more vulnerable during supply chain interruptions.
• Just-in-Case Inventories (JIC): By keeping extra inventory of essential materials or finished goods, businesses can maintain continuity during disruptions.

Whether you favor JIT or JIC, each strategy requires efficient use of space. High-density storage solutions can help you manage inventory fluctuations and optimize your warehouse operations.

High-Density Mobile Racking: Your Key to Supply-Chain Resilience
