We specialize in change-of-ownership inventories for owners, buyers, sellers, realtors and brokers. An independent count gives both sides a clear record of the stock included.
We also handle one-time audits and annual counts when you simply need to know what you have. No ongoing program required.

Tell us what needs countingWe’ll help you choose. The key difference is whether you need department retail totals, individual product quantities, or a combination.
Department-level retail totals.
We count by department, price and quantity, then add the retail values together. For example: 24 sodas at $2 each contribute $48 to the soda department.
This does not produce an itemized product list.
Quantities for each identified product.
Scanning records individual SKU or barcode quantities. Compare those counts with your records to review differences, prices and product information.
Choose this for product-level variance review.
A combination, planned for your stock.
Use itemized scanning in the departments where you need product detail and financial counting where department totals fit the assignment.
Item-by-item comparisons apply to the scanned portion.
Need a partial count, price-book verification, asset inventory or a particular reporting format? Let’s define the scope together.
Back-office & system experienceThree real engagements. Different needs, a thoughtful approach, and useful information to act on.
Convenience retail · Itemized scan
At an independently operated Chevron ExtraMile location, a count revealed products on the shelves with zero on-hand quantities in PDI Enterprise. Further review identified unposted supplier invoices and product-record issues.
After repeated scheduling challenges, the owner contacted us for a responsive local team. We visited the next day to understand the operation, then promptly scheduled and completed the scan inventory.
The review also identified inconsistencies in prices, product units and descriptions. The owner gained specific starting points for investigating invoices and reconciling records before further differences could accumulate.
About itemized inventoriesCentral Valley · Quarterly hybrid program
For an independent liquor, gas-station and convenience-store operator, frequent stock transfers made inventory harder to track. Quarterly hybrid counts across all nine stores provide a regular basis for reviewing balances, replenishment and transfers.
Each round is completed within a matter of days, with a separate count and results for every location. The owner uses the counts alongside sales history, transfer records and previous inventories to inform stock decisions.
Each count reflects that store at the time it was counted. Product-level comparisons apply to the scanned departments; financial totals do not provide an itemized product list.
About recurring programsWarehouse · Customized counting workflow
A landscaping distributor considering a change in business partners needed a detailed warehouse inventory in a specific format. We adapted our proprietary software to the assignment and returned the next day to begin counting.
The stock ranged from screws and sprinkler components to pipe and other supplies. The client’s in-house effort had been taking longer than expected and was not producing the required results.
Our on-site assessment established the counting and reporting requirements. The immediate result was a workable, customized process and professional counting underway, with the reporting needs built into the process from the start.

Since founding Pro Inventory Auditing in 1983, Suzanne has remained closely involved in the work that carries her company’s name.
She still oversees inventory operations and personally trains every new auditor. Ongoing training keeps our crews focused on careful counting and clear, useful reports. That hands-on involvement is part of what it means to work with a local inventory company.

Explore our service areaYes. One-time, annual and change-of-ownership inventories are a core part of our work. You do not need a recurring contract. We work with owners, buyers, sellers, realtors and brokers to agree on the count date, included stock and reporting needs.
Most clients receive a printed report when the inventory is complete. More complex reports are completed within 24 hours after we receive all required information. Tell us the report format you need when we plan your count.
Yes. After-hours, overnight and weekend counts are available. Next-day scheduling may be possible depending on the location, scope and crew availability. A requested date is not a confirmed appointment.
An itemized scan inventory records product quantities that can be compared with your back-office records. Financial inventory provides department-level retail totals, not an itemized product list. We confirm your files, units and requested format before counting.
