A count is only worth what's still true tomorrow

A one-time physical count reaches roughly 80% accuracy — and it starts decaying the moment work resumes, fastest on the trucks. Inaccurate, drifting records force higher safety stock, trap working capital, hide shrink, and break audits and M&A diligence. CPCON doesn't just hand you a number — we establish accuracy, reconcile it to your inventory system, and keep it high cycle over cycle, so you can safely run leaner. That sustained accuracy is what releases the cash.

WHAT WE COUNT

From warehouse racking to the last service van

Mixed spare parts, MRO, and field consumables across racking, wire shelving, and outdoor yard containers — plus the rolling inventory on every service truck. We map locations, exclude consignment, and reconcile to your system.

Inventory services, end to end

One team for the whole count — warehouse, yard, and fleet — reconciled to your system, not a pile of raw tallies.

Wall-to-Wall Counts

Full physical inventories of warehouses, DCs, branches, and yards — every SKU at every location, reconciled to your system.

Cycle Counting — no shutdown

Controlled cycle counts run around your busy season, with on-site transaction control so operations never have to stop.

Fleet & Truck-Stock Inventory

The rolling stock on service vans and trucks — live production inventory most counters ignore — counted as its own managed work stream.

MRO & Spare Parts

Spare-parts and MRO counting, rationalization, and obsolescence surfacing — recovering cash tied up in dead and untracked stock.

Receiving & 3PL Audits

Independent verification of inbound receipts against documents and 3PL-reported quantities — SOX-ready oversight.

WMS / ERP Reconciliation

Floor-to-book reconciliation, barcode/QR & RFID, and Power BI dashboards that keep the count live after we leave.

THE VALUE ENGINE

From a project to a program

A single count is a snapshot that decays. Sustained accuracy — held by recurring cycle counts — is what actually lets a business run leaner and release the capital trapped in stock.

01 · Baseline

Establish the truth

A controlled, reconciled count establishes real accuracy, quantifies the gap, and enables the first inventory drawdown.

Accuracy: ~80% → reconciled
02 · Build

Hold it high

Recurring cycle counts keep accuracy at 95%+, so safety stock can come down 15–20% — how the working-capital release is realized, cycle over cycle.

Safety stock: −15–20%
03 · Sustain

Compound the gain

The gain holds rather than reverting; shrink stays suppressed, and each new acquisition or site is onboarded into the same accurate baseline.

THE COVERAGE OTHERS SKIP

Warehouse and fleet, counted as one program

The rolling stock on service vans and trucks is live production inventory — and it's the inventory most counters leave out. CPCON counts the yard, the racking, and every service truck together, under one project manager, with transaction control so nothing is double-counted and the whole picture reconciles to your system.

For a national field-services platform, that meant warehouses plus ~80-van fleets across 35 divisions counted on a single accuracy standard — the trapped working capital that a warehouse-only count would have missed entirely.

A transparent, reconciled count — built around your operation

Our own trained crews, a dedicated project manager, and a result your finance team can stand behind.

No production freeze

Controlled cycle counts with on-site transaction control — count through the busy season instead of shutting down.

Warehouse + fleet as one program

The yard, the racking, and every service truck counted together — not warehouse-only with the fleet left out.

Guided identification

Client-SME-escorted recognition plus scan-where-coded (barcode/QR) for speed and accuracy on mixed, hard-to-ID parts.

Reconciled to your system

Counts tie out to your WMS/ERP and finance balances; consignment stock is segregated and excluded up front.

Independent QC re-count

A second-pass quality-control re-count on high-value and high-variance zones — not a single blind tally.

Our own trained crews

CPCON counters under a dedicated project manager — not staffing-agency temps who mis-ID parts.

Selected inventory engagements

Accuracy delivered at scale, on the clock, and reconciled to the system.

Field / Home Services · PE-backed
National multi-site services platform
35 divisions · warehouse + ~80-van fleets
Challenge
A roll-up of dozens of branches with mixed parts inventory across warehouses and large service-van fleets — no consistent accuracy, working capital trapped in stock, and a business that can’t shut down to count.
Approach
A controlled, multi-site cycle-count program — warehouse, yard, and every truck counted with transaction control, reconciled to the system — reframed from a one-time count into an ongoing inventory-integrity program.
Result
A sustained-accuracy baseline that releases working capital and reduces shrink — and onboards each new acquisition into the same standard.

5-day window · 25-person crew
Challenge
A very large parts and components population to count accurately inside a tight, fixed production window.
Approach
A 25-person CPCON crew under one PM executed a wall-to-wall count on a precise five-day schedule, with QC re-counts and reconciliation.
Result
250,000+ items counted and reconciled on time — accuracy delivered at scale, on the clock.
Manufacturing
Power-distribution manufacturer
SAP-integrated
Challenge
Tens of thousands of part numbers without a consistent, system-reconciled tag and identification standard.
Approach
First-time tagging and data capture of every part number, integrated and reconciled directly to SAP.
Result
32,000+ part numbers tagged and reconciled — a clean, auditable, SAP-linked inventory base.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a wall-to-wall count and a cycle count program?

A wall-to-wall count is a full physical inventory of every SKU at every location in a defined window — the baseline that establishes real accuracy and reconciles to your system. A cycle count program is the recurring cadence that keeps that accuracy high afterward, counting zones on rotation around your operation. A one-time count reaches ~80% accuracy and decays the moment work resumes; the cycle-count program is what holds accuracy at 95%+ so you can safely run leaner. We do both.

Do we have to shut down operations to count?

No. We run controlled cycle counts with on-site transaction control, counting through your busy season instead of freezing the operation. For wall-to-wall counts we schedule around your production window — one global automaker had 250,000+ items counted by a 25-person CPCON crew inside a fixed five-day window with no disruption to the line.

Do you count the inventory on our service trucks and vans, not just the warehouse?

Yes — and it is the coverage most counters skip. The rolling stock on service vans and trucks is live production inventory that decays fastest, so we count the warehouse, the yard, and every truck together as one managed program. For a national field-services platform we counted warehouses plus ~80-van fleets across 35 divisions on the same standard.

How do you reconcile the count to our WMS or ERP?

Every count ties out to your WMS/ERP and finance balances — floor-to-book, not a pile of raw tallies. We map locations up front, segregate and exclude consignment stock, and deliver a reconciled file, a variance report, and barcode/QR or RFID and Power BI dashboards that keep the count live after we leave. One power-distribution manufacturer had 32,000+ part numbers tagged and reconciled directly to SAP.

How do you handle consignment stock and high-value zones?

Consignment is identified and excluded before we start, so it never inflates your owned-inventory numbers. High-value and high-variance zones get an independent second-pass QC re-count — not a single blind tally — so the accuracy is defensible where the dollars and the audit risk are highest.

Can you scale to multiple sites and private-equity portfolios?

Yes — from a single warehouse to a multi-site, multi-state platform. For acquisitive PE portfolios we count and reconcile each acquired company at or after close, support net-working-capital true-ups with defensible numbers, and fold every new site into one portfolio-wide accuracy standard, so diligence, financials, and operations all run on the same trusted baseline.
