Tracking and Tracing
CitectIIM TrackingTM creates visibility into the T R A C K I N G A N A LY S I S
production process for every product, batch
or item manufactured. Whilst also reducing
manual data entry errors and overheads
through the automatic real-time logging of
production values, the inheritant linking of
parental relationships between lots provides
both trace forward and trace backwards
facilities to ensure that corporations can easily
determine exactly what happened during the
manufacture of every single item their plant
produces, allowing compliance with stringent
regulations like BRC, HACCP and EUREPGAP.
Business managers can now reliably
determine the exact scope of product
recalls, vastly reducing the costs and impact
of quality or supplier failures
Plant and production managers can
dynamically investigate product anomalies
via comprehensive ad-hoc and drill-down
reporting
Quality Assurance managers can easily
compare plant production outputs against
specifications and historical performance.
