Stop the pack bench running out of the one box size everything ships in, and see which materials are actually being used up.
Pack bench leads, stores staff and anyone who orders the packaging for a warehouse, workshop or online shop.
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: What the pack bench got through — boxes by size, tape, wrap, void fill and labels — counted at the start and end of the period so running out is seen coming.
Your reorder point, not ours. The reorder point for each material is yours: write it in the column headed with your figure, from your own usage and your supplier's lead time. This sheet only shows the count falling towards it.

Because the right point to reorder depends on how fast you use a material and how long your supplier takes to deliver, and both are different for every operation. Write your own figure in, and the sheet does the comparison.
Catch the wrong label, the missing invoice and the unpadded fragile item at the bench, where they cost a minute, rather than at the customer's door.
Turn reordering from a guess into a decision, by recording the level you have chosen to hold against what is actually on the shelf.
Put an order in writing so the delivery note and the invoice can both be checked against what was actually agreed.
Count stock area by area and see the variance beside the count, so a stock take produces a number you can act on rather than a vague reassurance.
