MegaStar Inventory Management Software   MegaStar Office Managment Software

Materials Management Software (MMS)

MegaPic^™ MMS provides complete inventory control and increased levels of productivity, inventory turns, picking accuracy and inventory security. Inventory levels can be managed by part, workzone, operator, time period, etc.

Dynamic space management tools maximize bothfloor and overhead space. Seamless integration with AS/RS systems allow operators to enter or scan a part name (number) or description into the system and the items are automatically delivered. Eliminates wasted search time for misplaced or out of stock inventory.

Quick and easy to install, MegaPic MMS can be upgraded with additional functionality as business needs or volume increases. Can work independently or integrated into existing ERP, WMS or other host systems. Intuitive design and wizards allow operators to pick effectively with confidence.

Key Benefits

• Enhances Profitability - Increased productivity and throughput reduces labor while increasing accuracy levels, order cut off times and inventory security.
• Reduces Inventory - By utilizing the supervisory reports and inventory tracking, organizations can have real time inventory levels, eliminating or reducing bad purchasing decisions, "safety stock" requirements and purging of old inventory.
• Improves Productivity - Eliminates or reduces wasted search time by utilizing an intuitive design that allows operators to work efficiently and puts inventory at their fingertips.
• Increases Accuracy - Simplified part number entry can reduce operator errors and enhance picking accuracy levels to 99.99%.
• Maximizes Floor Space - By combining software and AS/RS facilities can maximize floor space and reclaim up to 75% of otherwise wasted space for more profitable functions.
• Reduces Shrinkage - Controls which user has access to what inventory when combined with AS/RS devices. Limit access by department, value or other parameters with only a few clicks of a button.
