What do counting and missing stock cost you?

Put in what you know and leave the rest at zero. The full estimate shows the savings you could measure in your own records and the ones that are only estimates; the counting-time tab compares RFID with barcodes on counting alone. Both run in your browser; nothing is sent to us.

Reductions are planning ranges, not results: the assessment measures them for your site. Counting with RFID is planned at 300 items a minute plus 10 minutes to confirm each count. The example numbers are a made-up warehouse; replace them with yours.
