Top 10 Reasons Not to Try VMI(英文版)内容提要：

Reason #4: If we let a computer program determine our inventory, I estimate that our inventory dollars will increase a minimum of $200,000.00. We can’t afford to tie up our money like that. What about the extra warehouse space? What about the extra items lying around with price tags anywhere from $2,000.00 to $8,000.00 each? The big question is: Do we need to keep five of this item on the shelf, or would one or none be enough? Will VMI order five of this item?

If a customer wants to remain competitive into the next century you must anticipate -- look for ways to ‘fix it’ before it breaks. VMI provides excellent bottom line results in a variety of industries.
