One of the world leaders for railways paint, the European leader both for automotive interior plastics paint as well as for high technology industrial paints required the support of RGIS. Aware of the issues at stake in the globalisation of the various industrial paint sectors, in 2003, the industrial paint manufacturer established an international organisation, able to serve customers throughout the world, with constant quality standards. The manufacturer offers facilities in Europe, Asia, America and Africa thanks to its delivery and assistance solutions.
THE CHALLENGE
The manufacturer required RGIS to provide the following:
- Blind count of warehouse – no quantities given to auditors to check against
- Complete count within three days
- Count all items and confirm details of each item

The industrial paint manufacturer found by outsourcing the blind count of industrial paint warehouse to RGIS, the following results were achieved:
Counted and checked 120,000 items
Identified that 2,000 items variance with main system

Conclusion
By partnering with RGIS to conduct a blind warehouse count, the industrial paint manufacturer achieved an independent, highly accurate view of inventory without reliance on system quantities. RGIS’s disciplined approach verified critical item details—including batch, volume, SKU, and expiry—while identifying discrepancies between physical stock and system records. As a result, the customer corrected variances, strengthened inventory control, and completed the full count within the required three-day timeframe.
