Vendor
Managed
Inventory
We take complete ownership of your packaging inventory — monitoring stock levels, forecasting demand, sourcing from qualified vendors, and replenishing before you run low. Your team stops managing packaging. We start.
We Own Your
Inventory Problem.
Completely.
The premise is simple: your team shouldn't be spending time managing packaging inventory levels. That's an operational function that distracts from what your facility actually does — processing, manufacturing, distributing, or producing. Driven Solutions takes complete ownership of that function so your team doesn't have to.
We've built our VMI program to eliminate the two most common packaging inventory failures: stockouts that halt production and overstock that ties up capital. By monitoring your actual usage patterns and building responsive replenishment systems around them, we keep inventory lean without letting it go critical.
And because we're vendor-independent, we're sourcing across a competitive multi-vendor network on your behalf — not locked into a single manufacturer's catalog. That means better pricing, better availability, and a built-in backup when a supplier can't deliver.
We Monitor. You Don't.
Inventory tracking, usage analysis, and replenishment decision-making transfer entirely to our team. You check a report — you don't manage a system.
No Emergency Orders
We replenish before you run low. Emergency orders are a symptom of a broken system — VMI eliminates the system failure that causes them.
Competitive Multi-Vendor Sourcing
We source from whichever qualified vendor has the right product at the right price. Your VMI program benefits from our full vendor network, not one supplier.
One Relationship to Manage
Multiple packaging vendors, one account manager, one invoice consolidation process. We manage the vendor relationships — you manage us.
How VMI Works
From initial assessment to day-to-day management — here's what the transition to VMI looks like.
We map your current packaging usage — what you use, how fast, seasonal variations, stockout history, and where the gaps are in your current supply chain. This becomes the foundation of your VMI program design.
We design your custom VMI structure: monitoring methods, reorder triggers, safety stock levels, vendor roster, and reporting cadence — built around your actual usage data, not generic inventory rules.
We establish monitoring systems, qualify and onboard vendors, configure your reporting dashboard, and transition the inventory function to our team — with zero disruption to your operation during the handoff.
We own the day-to-day: tracking usage, placing replenishment orders, managing vendor relationships, escalating issues before they reach your team, and delivering monthly performance reports.
Signs You Need VMI
VMI works best for operations that match one or more of these situations.
VMI Works Across
Every Market We Serve
Vendor Managed Inventory isn't industry-specific — any operation that relies on consistent packaging supply benefits from it.
Never run out of compliant materials. Critical in environments where a stockout creates a regulatory and production crisis.
View Market →High-velocity consumables like stretch wrap and bulk packaging are ideal VMI candidates — used fast, needed consistently.
View Market →Production lines that can't wait for a packaging restock. VMI keeps food-grade materials available without overstock risk.
View Market →Multi-SKU complexity and seasonal demand peaks are exactly what VMI is designed to manage without excess inventory.
View Market →Seasonal peaks create real supply risk. Pre-season inventory planning and ongoing VMI ensures you're ready when the harvest hits.
View Market →Sustainable materials are often harder to source on short notice. VMI keeps your eco alternatives in stock with a qualified vendor network behind them.
