Benefits of TES Vending on your site
Lower waste and over-issue
Reduce casual over-use of high-value items by moving them into controlled vending, while keeping essential kit immediately available to frontline teams.
Better visibility of spend
Understand usage patterns by shift, area or project so you can challenge unnecessary consumption and plan more accurate budgets.
Always-on availability
Machines can sit at the point of work, giving 24/7 access to approved items without relying on manned stores or ad-hoc requisitions.
Fully managed by TES
TES looks after machine specification, installation, refill and service, so your team can focus on keeping projects moving.
Connects into wider TES supply
Vending sits on top of the same reliable TES supply chain for workwear, PPE, tools and consumables, simplifying procurement and invoicing.
Typical items in TES Vending
TES Vending machines are configured around your projects and risk profile. Common lines include:
- PPE such as gloves, eye protection and disposable masks.
- High-use workwear items, where appropriate for your policies.
- Small tools, batteries and accessories.
- Engineering consumables, fixings and site sundries.
Designed around your controls
TES works with your H&S and procurement teams to agree which items are suitable for vending and how access should be configured, so that machines support – rather than bypass – your existing processes.
How a TES Vending project typically runs
1. Site review and data capture
We visit site (or sites) to understand current usage patterns, walk routes, storage constraints and the products you rely on day to day.
2. Machine and product proposal
TES proposes suitable machine types, locations and product plans, including how items will be controlled and reported.
3. Installation and optimisation
Once agreed, we install, commission and stock the machines, then review performance with you regularly to keep the configuration working for the project.
