Berardi Fasteners has added a new range of industrial components, which provide solutions to the technological transformation of production processes, to its 10,000m2 warehouse. They are gathered in two catalogues catered to the industry – standard elements and plastic fastening systems and accessories.
For 100 years, Berardi Fasteners has been in the hands of the same family and is now led by the fourth generation – Giovanni Berardi. By constantly enriching its inventory of products, the company has positioned itself as a partner and industrial distributor of excellence – providing technical, commercial and logistical support, which features the most advanced solutions and technologies shared with customers and suppliers in a virtuous supply chain.
Also available from Berardi is its Kanban e Kanban Up service, which the company says is its ‘cutting edge’, offering logistics systems that are extremely adaptable – designed specifically for customers and reserved for the Lean supply of C–class items. A dedicated 10-member team analyses the procedures and production flows to be improved and uses a collaborative approach to develop the perfect integrated logistics solution. The savings achieved and problem reduction inherent in the management of these materials are the basis for the success of Berardi Fasteners’s logistics solutions.
To allow the streamlining of the supply chain of C–class items, whose management cost greatly affects the total cost of the material, Berardi has also improved its offer on integrated logistics, with the introduction of a new tool for the monitoring and control of logistics facilities: Kanban Up. Thanks to this innovative system, customers can constantly monitor their logistics facilities through a dedicated web portal, detect missing items, and send orders directly through their smartphone. Customers can also choose to enable more operators (process owner) to detect deficiencies, thus creating an independent supply of the individual production departments whilst still keeping control over it. This simple process is done through the automatic sending of emails to the purchasing manager, which contain all the information about the order.
A new opportunity from Berardi is EasySelf 24 automatic dispensers for personal protective equipment, tools, and other products, where it is necessary to ensure stock continuity to users. This helps reduce costs, time management and material procurement, controlling consumption with 30% – 40% reduction and monitoring any obsolete materials.
“The range of services offered by Berardi Fasteners allows our customers to relieve strategic resources from the management of C–class items, in order to focus on core business activities with greater added value for their end customers, generating, in turn, a successful win-win mechanism throughout the supply chain,” comments Berardi.
