During this time of uncertainty, businesses of all kinds are embracing new challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. When there’s fear of the supply chain disrupting, consumers tend to stock up on everything from food, at-home fitness equipment, toilet paper and even cash.
How are these other businesses handling the extreme change in demand? They are constantly evaluating and reworking their inventory management strategies and processes to ensure they keep inventory in-check and customers happy. For example, companies like Target and Wal-Mart are making sure they are ordering more of high demand products such as bottled water, and less of lower demand products such as team sports equipment.
Inventory management isn’t just about food and sports equipment though, it’s also about cash. Logicpath has worked with thousands of branches and ATMs to help banks and credit unions create new inventory management practices that are helping them through the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic. Here are some common challenges they are facing when it comes to managing their branch and ATM cash during this time so it can help your financial institution adapt to the ongoing changes:
We recommend that banks and credit unions put a system in place to manage their cash orders remotely. If you don’t have a branch and ATM cash management software in place, now is the time to implement one. With the current COVID-19 pandemic constantly changing the day-to-day life of consumers and businesses, it is more important than ever for financial institutions to be flexible and adaptive by having the right processes and software in place to help.
