Once available on the Internet, the information can be used to aid supply chain management. Bulk storage stock levels can be made available, to both manufacturing personnel and suppliers alike, to ensure that deliveries of replenishment stock are made in a timely manner, avoiding shortages and last-minute panic shipments.

When combined with the Data Acquisition/Trending module, usage can be trended to give better prediction of when re-stocking will be required. Sudden changes in usage patterns can raise alarms to indicate when emergency deliveries might be required.
