Gould Fasteners computer system generates the appropriate shipping documents. The Gould Fasteners' Shipper pulls the needed products from inventory, packages them according to the customer's preferences, and ships the products so that they arrive when the customer has scheduled them.

Since the products have been pre-inspected, they can go right to he manufacturing floor or to stock.

If requested, a message that the goods are on the way can be sent electronically so that the customer is reassured that product will arrive when needed.
