Solution
Managing consumables – never face empty boxes again
Screws, anchors, cable ties, seals: small parts are cheap – until they are missing. Then a technician stands in the hardware store for an hour over three dollars of material. The solution is not counting every screw, but setting a minimum stock per item and letting reordering trigger automatically. That keeps C-parts in the background – where they belong.

Sound familiar?
- The screw box is empty, and someone only notices on the job site.
- Small parts are bought "on shout" – sometimes twice, sometimes not at all.
- Emergency hardware-store purchases cost a multiple of the list price.
- Nobody feels responsible for C-parts.

Frequently asked questions
How precisely do I have to post small parts?
Roughly is fine: post in packages ("1 box"), not per piece. The minimum stock absorbs imprecision – only the timing of the reorder matters.
How high should the minimum stock be for small parts?
Rule of thumb: consumption during the lead time plus one package of buffer. With strongly fluctuating consumption, rather one package more – small parts hardly tie up capital.
Can reordering really run automatically?
Yes. When the minimum stock is reached, Lavesy creates an order draft with the stored supplier; you approve with one click – you stay in control.
