Hi Stefan,


Very interesting point. This may actually help prevent stockpiling, especially if a fee is charged based on quantity lifecycle (as opposed to number of containers - you may start seeing gallons/kilogram bottles because the price is cheaper). Also, don't forget to add disposal costs.

It's all economics these days :)

Cheers,

As we begin to expand our existing bar code chemical inventory system, the folks in Administration are asking if there are any institutions that charge a fee back to departments in order to pay for the system..

Hard economic times lead to such inquiries from VP's.

I appreciate any comments regarding funding of chemical inventory systems, related staffing, and delivery vehicles, etc.
