SOME EXAMPLES OF WHAT WE DO

Do you know how long you hold your products on average? Are you able to calculate the cost of stocking that inventory? TAP's Inventory Worksheet and Inventory Turns Analysis will help you understand the cost of keeping inventory that doesn’t move fast enough and how to free up cash to focus on better moving products.

Do you want to launch an ecommerce site but aren’t sure where to start? TAP consultants will utilize various tools in their ECommerce Suite to help you compare platforms and analyze which one best meets your unique needs. They may also follow up with an evaluation to ensure your website is functional and user friendly.
