The challenge

Lost items cost more than you think

How Beam solves this

Beam gives every item a unique RFID identity. Your team no longer searches by gut feel, but for the exact tag linked to the product. First Beam finds the match, then the locator helps with the last metres.

  • Search by product, barcode or item ID
  • Scan across thousands of tagged items at once
  • See whether you are moving closer or further away
  • Confirm the item before it returns to the sales flow

Teams lose hours searching for misplaced items. Inventory that cannot be found blocks orders, creates unnecessary reorders and can cost thousands in missed sales every week.

If it cannot be found, it cannot be sold.

Stock that sits somewhere in the store but cannot be found does not count in practice. Beam helps teams recover last sizes, colours and variants before you sell no or buy the same stock again.

  • Recover last sizes, colours and variants faster
  • Prevent reorders for stock that is already in store
  • Make online availability more reliable for store teams
  • Put found items straight back into the sales flow
Beam gives us the overview and control we always wanted across all our locations.

Smit Mode uses Beam as a supplement to their existing ERP system for accurate inventory management across multiple locations.
