Industries/Logistics

Item level visibility from the dock to the resale channel.

Logistics providers move goods they do not own and often cannot identify. Vendidit gives the operator an item level record at receipt, a disposition for everything that will not ship as planned, and a channel for everything that should be sold.

Pallet level visibility ends where the problem begins.

The moment a shipment breaks, a return arrives, or a client's inventory ages, the operator is handling items it has no record for. Every such item costs labor, space and, eventually, a write-off.

The platform gives the operator a record for each item at the first touch, a rule for what happens to it, and a channel when it should be sold, so the residue of logistics becomes a recovery line rather than a cost.

Where the technology changes the work

Four applications.

01

Item level receipt

Identity and condition from a photograph at receipt, bound to the client, the shipment and the location.

02

Blind and unplanned returns

Items that arrive without a record are identified and matched to a client, so they are billed and dispositioned rather than shelved.

03

Disposition and resale

Damaged, aged and abandoned inventory routed to repair, resale or disposal by rule, with recovery returned to the client.

04

Warehouse operations

Receipt, put away, task assignment, pick, pack and ship at item level, inside the existing facility.
