Waer, a leading provider of an inventory management software solution that runs entirely over the Internet, has launched a new WaerLinx application for handheld tablet devices. This mobile App gives full control and visibility of the supply chain, anywhere in the world. Users can view their reports, staff productivity, stock levels and inventory transactions at the touch of a screen with this simple yet powerful tablet interface.

Not only can the App be used as a management tool, it can also be used to capture demands in the supply chain at the point of use. This removes the need for expensive communications networks and scanners and can easily enable collaborative working between buyers and suppliers.
