Vending machines in the construction industry – what are they?
Vending machines are devices that allow full control over the storage and dispensing of supplies, health and safety products or other employee items necessary to ensure the reliability and continuity of processes. Industrial vending machines are sort of inventory command centers – fully automatic and optimized devices that are designed to supply employees with resources according to their individual needs.
Vending machines in the construction industry guarantee productivity when running a construction project. They provide a comprehensive service by identifying specific employees and assigning them a certain amount of stock to reduce unnecessary consumption. Their operation is similar to vending machines, which distribute products based on a scanned card or access code instead of coins.
How to use vending machines in the construction industry?
Vending machines in the construction industry find a wide range of applications depending on demand and inventory, not only during the project, but also during daily duties.
First of all, the dispensing machine can be a distributor of personal protective equipment. The construction sector is an industry characterized by a high injury rate of workers and the need for a number of occupational health and safety measures, which significantly affect the elimination of the most common occupational hazards and diseases. A well-protected worker is able to perform his job more efficiently and accurately, and it is the employer’s responsibility to provide protection. The configuration of vending machines allows for a comprehensive service involving the dispensing of products such as masks, gloves, work clothes, protectors, or safety devices for equipment. Specially developed settings of the machines allow optimal distribution of resources according to position and demand. What’s more, product ordinances can be modified at will, allowing allocations to be increased during a project and reduced accordingly when returning to daily, less intensive duties.
Vending machines can also supply employees with the tools they need for their work. This allows the full implementation of optimal solutions involving not only the saving of products and warehouse resources, but also the saving of time that employees would have to spend each time going to the warehouse and searching for the right equipment.
What are the benefits of vending machines in the construction industry?
Speaking of vending machines, it is difficult not to mention their numerous advantages. What are the benefits of using ASD Systems vending machines?
- Elimination of mistakes
The configuration of vending machines ensures the elimination of mistakes related to issuing equipment to an unauthorized worker or allocating too many resources. The machine does not require additional checking, and the initially developed equipment settings are subject to constant control by the manager. They also provide adequate advance notice of product depletion, so as to prevent shortages resulting in work stoppage.
- Effective inventory management
Vending machines allow efficient and fully controlled inventory management. This means that the entrepreneur has access to accurate data, thanks to which he can plan product distribution and purchases. If the vending machine is a distributor of personal protective equipment, for example, the manager can analyze the current consumption of specific components and order the appropriate quantities of goods without the risk of under-utilization and, consequently, wasted resources.
- Saving time and money
Saving time and money is the goal of every entrepreneur. ASD Systems vending machines on your premises will allow you to implement these two savings in the form of a single vending machine solution.
