Inmar Reverse Logistics, Winston-Salem, N.C., says it has become the first in the industry to automate the time-consuming tasks associated with return authorization and product disposition. "By automating these processes, our clients move inventory faster, settle claims faster and with a higher degree of confidence," says Mike Umbach, group vice president-marketing and product development. "Bottom line, productivity rises and cost is reduced for all trading partners in the supply chain."
Vendors who use the company's invoice-link receive online notifications and reminders that alert them to invoices awaiting authorization and can provide authorization immediately online. They also can issue product disposition instructions online and access detailed tracking information. Certain vendors receive notification regarding proofs of destruction as well.
