"Since my company entered into a vendor managed inventory program with Austin, our service levels and in-stock position on our parts have never been better. We consolidated 23 suppliers down to one, Austin.
Now we only have one invoice to review, one shipment to check in and we are in stock 99% of the time! Austin has one of the best customer service teams we work with, I would recommend this program to anyone who needs to take control of their inventory and be sure to have the parts you need on the shelves!"
Gary from Ohio
"I wanted to send along some great news. We have experienced a few problems with shipping over the years, but the solutions that you put in place over the last few weeks have been very positive. On another note, Tom and Emma, the Vendor Managed Inventory team that I have been working with, have done a great job responding to concerns and questions in a timely fashion. That fact is another reason our VMI program is successful and getting stronger every day. Our overall numbers continue to increase and we are looking forward to the growth in 2017."
