Construction Applications >> Inventory Control
Your Job
You can’t watch a shipment of conduit being unloaded, so you delegate. Upon completion your supervisor gives you a delivery receipt and an oral confirmation that all 200 cartons were received in good condition and stocked.

Your Job on Video
Later you check the video and see that the delivery truck had one trailer. That doesn’t seem right. You find a tight shot of the carton label and see the part number is slightly different than the one on your PO. You got 200 cartons of conduit with half the needed capacity. Good thing you saw that before installation.

Enhance Construction Inventory Control

You may not have time to watch materials being delivered and handled in real time, but there’s still information you need for construction inventory control. Custom video of materials handling includes:
  • Action shots of workers unloading construction materials
  • Action shots of boxes being opened
  • Tight shots of labels on packaging
  • Pan shots of storage conditions.
  • Wide shots of materials stocked on site
With video on demand construction software, you can scan materials handling processes in a compressed time frame. Video helps you verify materials received are:
  • In good condition
  • The right quantity
  • Exactly the product you specified
  • Handled properly by the delivery agent
  • Handled properly by your workers
  • Correctly stocked or stored
 
When products are damaged on receipt, construction video eliminates arguments with manufacturers and delivery agents. If it looks like the product isn’t what you specified, you can send the owner or designer a link to the video for verification.
 
Videotaping provides high level support for construction inventory control by letting everyone on the job know that there is a permanent visual record being made of materials handling and storage.
