Abstract
Barrage Cellars, a small production winemaking facility, plans to expand sales over the next five to ten years by implementing a mobile and comprehensive inventory tracking system. This paper focuses on the analysis and selection of two to three inventory-recording systems that will effectively reduces costs while increasing profits. The research has been conducted through survey and interview of internal sources (ownership) and external sources and has provided information related to the challenges of inventory control within the winemaking industry. The process of implementation has divulged significant growth in three key areas: useable inventory data, sales forecasting information, and customer purchase records. Focusing on long-term expansion, the overall goal of this research has been to suggest a suitable inventory system that remains within cost limitations while allowing for greater commercial production capabilities.
