Success Case
Automate restocking of lab supplies
Customizable threshold settings allow lab managers to prioritize critical supplies and adjust reorder points based on usage patterns, lead times, and supplier performance. This level of control helps optimize stock levels, reduces excess inventory, and ensures that high-priority items are never out of stock.
The Challenge
Automated restocking system
By continuously monitoring lab supply levels in real time, the system ensures accurate, up-to-date visibility into stock status across multiple locations and storage units.
When a specific item reaches its predefined threshold, the system automatically initiates a restocking workflow—whether it’s generating a purchase request, notifying the appropriate personnel, or integrating with your existing procurement system to place orders directly with suppliers.
The Requirements
Seamless integration with Lab Workflows
Customizable threshold settings allow lab managers to prioritize critical supplies and adjust reorder points based on usage patterns, lead times, and supplier performance. This level of control helps optimize stock levels, reduces excess inventory, and ensures that high-priority items are never out of stock.
The platform also provides detailed analytics and reporting on inventory trends, consumption rates, and restocking cycles, enabling data-driven decisions that improve cost efficiency and operational planning. Notifications and alerts are configurable and can be delivered via multiple channels to ensure prompt action when stock levels are low.
The Solution
Accurate Tracking with RFID, Barcodes & IoT
Designed to integrate seamlessly with your lab’s infrastructure and workflows, our solution supports barcode scanning, RFID, and IoT-enabled storage for accurate item tracking and audit trails.
Automate restocking processes, labs can significantly reduce administrative overhead, improve supply chain resilience, and maintain a continuous state of readiness—ensuring scientists and lab technicians always have the materials they need to focus on critical research and innovation.
“Since implementing automated restocking, we’ve drastically reduced stockouts and saved hours of manual inventory checks. The lab runs smoother than ever.”
We selected AppThing as a technology partner for the cGanga project to optimize river Ganges rejuvenation efforts.
They have helped us to leverage AI to analyze vast amounts of river related data and produce relevant, reliable, and meaningful insights for the stakeholders to optimize the Ganges river basin environmental recovery efforts and to apply this to additional river basins in India and other regions of the world.
