A Quick, powerful way to recover capital from inventory

@TheMoment is a business platform that enables quick liquidation of inventory in order to channel capital back into operations. Retail usually has a lot of surplus that needs to be effectively cleaned up to enable space, capital. The foundation of the platform is a toolset designed to quickly and efficiently manage individual auctions, investment recovery events, and interactions with customers.

Benefits of @TheMoment

Liquidating inventory is a complex process that usually forces asset mangers to choose between getting the best price and making a quick sale. It often means contacting new and existing customers, informing them of available inventory and special pricing, then trying to track all the interaction as negotiations unfold.

@TheMoment automates and simplifies both the transactions and the associated communications. With powerful tools that enable auction and inventory to make quicker, better decisions, allowing the monitoring of product flow, optimizes productivity, reduces costs, monitors and controls inventory levels, and, most importantly, optimizes return on investments.

The key is simplification of the auction process and control and access to real-time information and monitoring.

This helps reduce complexity while providing answers to the questions that occur while recovering investment in highly specialized assets.

Special tools allow managers to easily publish information for both co-workers and customers, and provide an interface for easy interaction with key customers, and a platform for generating reports.

Benefits of a fully web-based system

Experienced inventory managers know the key to moving inventory is proper pricing, while leveraging inventory data and access to key customers. Once an investment recovery event is underway, personnel need to track the status of each auction item, bidder, and current high bid. This is all part of a set workflow for liquidating inventory. @TheMoment treats such interactions as live events. Managers can follow all activity and bid performance in real time.
  • Information accessibility can help reduce inventory levels. Knowing product numbers, bid prices and contact points can help close a deal while other suppliers are struggling to gather their data.
  • Automation reduces processing costs. A template-driven system, with proper monitoring tools, makes the @TheMoment system quick and efficient.
  • Web-based services make for easy, accessible deployment across organization. The people who need to manage an electronic auction, or supply details on inventory, have instant access to the system if they have access to a web browser. Each participant, from auction managers to bidders, has separate user profiles that can be configured to allow access to specific management tools or auctions.
