W Group Logistics Canada
Inventory Management

SKU-level inventory control. Accurate stock, clear visibility.

Strong inventory management keeps stock accurate and capital working. W Group's bin location system, cycle counting program and real-time visibility keep your stock accurate and accessible from our Concord, ON facility.

01Inventory Accuracy

Inventory accuracy is built at receiving.

Counting every inbound shipment against the PO before it enters the system keeps stock accurate from the first day. Every product gets the right bin location, so picks are accurate and returns stay low. W Group catches discrepancies in the same session, so your numbers are always current.

Every SKU is assigned a specific bin location in the WMS. Pick teams go directly to the right spot. Cycle counts verify physical stock matches the system on a rolling schedule, with no end-of-year inventory shutdowns.

What our inventory system keeps on track

  • Accurate on-hand counts that keep stock available
  • Right-sized stock that keeps capital working
  • Organized bin locations for accurate picking
  • Real-time visibility, not just end-of-month reports
  • Receiving accuracy verified on arrival
02What's Included

Complete inventory management, one team

SKU-Level Bin Location System

Every product in a designated bin. Pick teams know exactly where each SKU lives, reducing pick errors and search time to near zero.

Real-Time Stock Levels

Current on-hand quantities visible at any moment via the client portal. No end-of-day batch updates; inventory reflects every receipt and dispatch as it happens.

Cycle Counting Program

Regular cycle counts keep inventory accurate without disrupting operations. High-velocity SKUs counted weekly; full counts scheduled quarterly.

Low-Stock Alerts

Configurable reorder alerts notify you when any SKU drops below your defined minimum threshold, so you can reorder early and keep products available.

Online Client Portal

Your inventory dashboard (W Connect): inbound receipts, current stock by SKU and location, outbound order history, and return dispositions, all in one view.

Inbound Receiving Accuracy

Every inbound shipment counted against the PO before entering inventory. Discrepancies flagged in the same session, not discovered weeks later during a stockout.

03How It Works

How inventory stays accurate from receipt to dispatch

1

Inbound PO verification

Shipment received and counted against the purchase order. Any quantity or condition discrepancy documented and sent to the client the same day.

2

SKU putaway with bin assignment

Each product given a specific bin location in the WMS. Location recorded against the SKU so every future pick starts with a known location.

3

Live inventory update in the client portal

Stock levels updated in the client portal immediately after putaway. Client sees the new inventory as soon as the receiving session is complete.

4

Cycle count & variance reporting

Scheduled cycle counts verify physical stock matches the system. Variances reported with root cause analysis, not just a number.

5

Reorder alert & client notification

When any SKU hits its minimum threshold, the client portal flags it automatically. The client receives a notification in time to reorder and keep order fulfillment running smoothly.
