Inventory and Metal Controls
Our systems improve yields, assure timely management information, prevent
inventory shortages and pinpoint where material is being lost.
Optimum production requires free movement of work in process; security demands that materials stay frozen in place. MMC will create stand-alone software or will help adapt your control systems and procedures to:
--Secure and document materials in process without encumbering movement between work areas.
- Harmonize metal and production controls with accounting procedures.
- Track materials from the moment they arrive at the plant until they are shipped.
- Provide timely management reports and credit analyses.
- Identify and account for random error in inventory measurement.
- Protect against unauthorized trading, theft and fraud.
MMC's metal control systems track every ounce of precious metal throughout the system, identifying each unit:
| By lot—lot or contract number, source, arrival/departure date. | |
| By its precise form—product, clean scrap, dirty scrap, sweeps, etc.. | |
| By exact location—inside the plant or at outside refiners and fabricators. | |
| By the person accountable for the safekeeping and return of the metal contained. |
