Supplies & Consumables Tracking

    The supplies your business runs on, tracked.

    Consumables burn through fast, cost more than anyone realises, and nobody tracks them until something runs out. AssetBlaze gives every supply a home, a history, and an alert, so you always know before you are out.

    We hear this every week
    "We ran out of toner mid-client presentation. Nobody noticed the stock was at zero.""I have no idea what we spend on supplies every month. The invoices go to three different people.""Someone ordered 200 boxes of latex gloves. We already had 180. Nobody checked.""The cleaner said we were out of everything. Turns out it was just in the wrong cupboard.""We ran out of toner mid-client presentation. Nobody noticed the stock was at zero.""I have no idea what we spend on supplies every month.

    Why this matters

    What happens when consumables go untracked.

    Every business that runs on supplies and consumables without a system eventually hits the same walls.

    01

    The last-minute scramble

    Someone realises they are out of a critical supply mid-job, mid-shift, or mid-event. Work stops. An emergency order goes in, usually at a premium. Two hours are lost, and everyone is stressed. It happens again next month because nothing changed.

    02

    The invisible budget leak

    Consumables ordered reactively on credit cards, coded loosely in the accounts, never consolidated into a view. Nobody knows what the company actually spends on supplies. Nobody can challenge it. Nobody can optimise it.

    03

    The stockroom mystery

    Three people think they saw paper towels in the back. Two more say the cleaning cupboard is probably fine. Someone orders more anyway, you now have 8 months of paper towels and zero toner. Over-order some things, under-order others, every time.

    You are spending more than you think.

    Most SMBs significantly underestimate their annual consumables spend, because it is scattered across multiple suppliers, multiple buyers, and multiple cost codes.

    Annual consumables spend, 20-person business

    Office supplies & stationery$4,200
    Printing & toner$2,800
    Cleaning & hygiene$3,100
    Safety & PPE consumables$2,400
    Kitchen & break room$1,800
    Total annual spend$14,300

    Typical 20-person SMB. Most teams estimate ~40% less.

    Visibility is the first step to control.

    You cannot optimise what you cannot see. Once every supply and consumable is tracked, with a real cost attached to each item and a usage history behind it, the patterns become obvious.

    Which items are being over-ordered? Which suppliers are charging more than they should? Where are the biggest savings? AssetBlaze makes these questions answerable in minutes, not months.

    Track spend per category, per supplier, and per location, consolidated in one dashboard
    Usage history shows how quickly each item is consumed, so you order the right amount, not just more
    Supplier catalogues imported directly, compare prices across sources before placing an order
    QuickBooks sync means consumables spend is coded correctly, every time, without manual entry

    Every feature your team needs to stay stocked.

    AssetBlaze is built for any business that runs on supplies, and needs to know what it has before it runs out.

    Whatever your business does, AssetBlaze tracks what it uses.

    From printer paper to PPE, coffee pods to cleaning chemicals, if your team consumes it, AssetBlaze can track it.

    Offices & Professional Services

    Stationery, toner, coffee, cleaning supplies. Track what the office runs through and stop the last-minute supply run.

    Healthcare & Clinics

    Gloves, syringes, dressings, pharmaceuticals. Critical consumables with expiry dates and compliance requirements.

    Workshops & Trades

    Lubricants, abrasives, fixings, safety gear. The small items that add up fast when nobody is counting.

    Hospitality & Food Service

    Packaging, cleaning chemicals, disposables. High-frequency reordering with tight margins, visibility matters.

    Construction & Facilities

    PPE, fixings, adhesives, paints. Spread across multiple sites with no central view of what is left where.

    Education & Non-profits

    Art supplies, lab consumables, cleaning, admin. Budget-conscious teams that need to make every order count.

    How we compare

    Better than a spreadsheet. Simpler than an ERP.

    Most businesses track consumables in a shared spreadsheet, if they track them at all. AssetBlaze is the step up that does not require a six-month implementation.

    From teams who made the switch

    Finally knowing what you actually have.

    We were spending over £12,000 a year on office supplies and nobody could tell me where it was going. Three months into AssetBlaze, I had a breakdown by category, by supplier, and by month. We cut spend by 22% just by ordering smarter.

    Running out of clinical consumables mid-session is not an option. We used to do weekly manual counts which took the whole Friday afternoon. Now the alerts fire automatically and we reorder before it is ever a problem. The Friday count is gone.

    We have supplies spread across three workshop bays and two offices. The spreadsheet version was a joke, someone would update it, someone else would not, and nobody trusted the numbers. AssetBlaze actually works because it is simple enough that everyone uses it.
