Asked mid-diligence, answered here.
Can you count without freezing our operations?+
Yes. We run zoned live counts — the operation keeps shipping while crews count zone by zone with movement controls, so the deal doesn’t stop the business.
How fast can you mobilize?+
Proposal within 24 hours of receiving your SKU/site profile. Crews are typically on-site within days — we routinely scope counts inside deal windows.
Is the report usable in a dispute?+
The count is executed by an independent third party under documented, defensible methodology — sampling plans, controls, and chain of custody are all in the appendix.
Do you reconcile to our ERP?+
Yes. You receive a variance file reconciled against your system of record — SAP, NetSuite, PeopleSoft, Lawson, or a plain export.
What does it cost?+
A fixed, all-inclusive fee scoped from your SKU and site profile — travel included, no hourly meters. You know the full cost before you commit.
Are you an audit firm?+
No — and that’s the point. We are an independent inventory verification firm. Auditors, advisors, and lenders rely on our counts as evidence for their own opinions.
