Van Meter

Van Meter brings your account dashboard to mobile, so you can manage orders, inventory and product lists on the go. With Van Meter, catalog browsing, real-time pricing and availability, and full order history are presented in a compact interface that helps technicians and purchasing teams place and re-order items quickly from anywhere.

Key Features

The app provides an online product catalog with access to the full selection and 25,000 in-stock items available for next-day delivery. Real-time inventory visibility helps prevent stockouts and supports better supply planning. Live pricing and availability ensure purchases reflect current stock and costs, while order history can be viewed, searched and filtered, including transactions recorded while offline. You can also create, manage and share product lists to keep commonly purchased items organized across your team.

Advantages

Van Meter streamlines the ordering workflow by combining catalog browsing, pricing and checkout in one place, which can reduce time spent placing routine orders. Improved inventory control comes from timely visibility into stock levels and availability. Team collaboration is simplified through shared product lists that align purchasing needs, and 24/7 access to order histories and product lists makes it easier to reorder or audit past purchases.

Disadvantages

Using Van Meter requires an active Van Meter account to access dashboard features and place orders, and the app is focused on ordering and inventory management rather than providing broader accounting or ERP functionality.
