Bar Codes And Scanners Improve Business Nationwide

Its easy to use. Its completely worth the investments, said Ronnie ODonnell, senior accountant at Colony Display Systems Manufacturing, a company that produces racks and fixtures for retail stores.

Colony has been renting barcode scanners to help them with their inventory for years and have found that collecting their stock data automatically using barcoding is essential for their businesss success.

We need to figure out what we have, accurate counts are very important, ODonnell said.

Each year the company inventories about $8 million worth of stock. ODonnell said that renting the barcode scanners from MSS Software is a simple and affordable solution that helps the company get a better handle on the quantity of products the company has.
Like ODonnel, Chris Sternberg understands the value of automating data with bar codes and scanners.

It saves valuable time. If we didnt use bar code scanners to track our inventory we would be here for weeks, he said.

Sternberg is the senior cost analyst for MasterBrands Cabinets Inc., a cabinetmaker based out of Jasper, Indiana, that has been in business since 1926.

Now we scan it (inventory information) and uploaded. Its a lot faster, Sternberg said.

Businesses agree that with the right barcode software and barcode equipment, storing data automatically is a valuable advantage.

MasterBrand Cabinets has billions of dollars in inventory and eight locations. Barcode scanners and data collection has made it possible for the company to spend only one day doing inventory in each location.

Sternberg said that when he started working for company seven years ago the company rented scanners from MSS Software and another company, but five years ago they started renting solely from MSS Software after receiving bad customer service.

Businesses said that renting tracking equipment from a company with good customer service is key because businesses often need technical help operating scanners and software.

Training and preparation of devices have always been great (with MSS Software). They are always willing to help, Sternberg said.


Sternberg and ODonnell agree that being able to rent scanners at a cheap price is advantageous and had greatly improved the way they companies track their products.

Both also found the equipment efficient and simple to use, an advantage for companies who need to train employees every year.
