Why You Should Outsource Kitting Services

Why You Should Outsource Kitting Services

by Tom K / Thursday, 04 August 2016 / Published in Blog

Kitting is a basic part of product fulfillment services that combines different products into a single kit, which is then sold as its own unit. Since kitting helps improve sales, eases inventory tracing, and otherwise reduces paperwork, getting the task done well produces numerous benefits. Any company looking to improve their kitting and fulfillment services should consider outsourcing due to the ways it can further enhance this essential task.

Benefits of Outsourcing Kitting Services

Cost Factors

When an outsourcing company charges you for kitting and fulfillment services, they do so on a per-unit basis. This cost-per-unit model is easily predictable and makes budgeting a breeze since you will know ahead of time what your stock is going to look like. Outsourcing also reduces your reliance on your own warehousing infrastructure and the upkeep costs that inevitably involves. Instead, you can take advantage of the outsourcing company’s facilities to further streamline operations.

Quality of Products

Kitting and assembly takes time and energy that can be better spent focusing on your core business objectives, especially if you do most of your operations in house,. Using a trusted company as your outsourcing partner lets you get quality and accurate kitting while you and your own workers focus on improving overall product quality and business growth.

Volume Flexibility

Demand for a product inevitably fluctuates throughout the year, and these variances can be enough that you either find yourself with more hands than you need or scrambling to get new workers on board and products shipped out. Outsourced kitting and fulfillment services are highly flexible and can be scaled up and down as circumstances shift. They can even let you respond quickly to dramatic upswings in demand so you are never at risk of falling behind.

Sub-Assembly Plants

This applies to companies that manufacture their own products. It can be overwhelming on your infrastructure to try and carry out everything from manufacturing to kitting and assembly under a single roof. Outsourcing lets you split up the process with “sub-assembly plants” that will take care of the latter parts of the fulfillment process.

Harness Outsourced Kitting and Fulfillment Services with the Lean Methodology

Lean Supply Solutions is a 3PL fulfillment company whose operations are based around the Lean Methodology, a proven philosophy focused on eliminating any operations, equipment, or resources that are not capable of adding value to our clients’ supply chain. By striving to ensure that the right products are provided to the right customers at the right time, Lean Supply Solutions is able to offer consistent, predictable, and quality results. To learn more about the Lean Methodology, about outsourcing to Lean Supply Solutions, or to ask any questions, give us a call at 905-482-2590.
