Securing future market success with traceability

Good quality management is increasingly determining economic existence in most industries. Tailored Traceability enables the targeted recall of individual products or batches and is becoming indispensable in all industries. Augsburg, 03.12.2018 At the end of the year, companies in the manufacturing industry are regularly showing interest in MES solutions, as was the case this year. Standing there Traceability solutions at the top of the agenda. It is an open secret that sophisticated quality management and precise traceability are decisive for existence in many industries. “Comprehensive quality management is becoming increasingly important for manufacturing-related companies. Traceability, the traceability of a product along its supply and production chain, has become a must in almost all industries,” explains gbo datacomp managing director Michael Möller. Time is money: In the event of a possible claim, this applies once again to traceability. The faster and more precisely you can narrow down an affected batch, the better. As a result, this means that product liability risks are noticeably reduced and costs are significantly reduced. “In the automotive sector in particular, there is enormous pressure when it comes to traceability,” says Möller. “And in the area Food And also medical technology It is very much linked to economic efficiency. Fortunately, these are all industries in which we are very familiar with our MES module. “Here, gbo datacomp uses BiSoftTtra. This module of comprehensive BiSoftMES solution enables comprehensive tracking of incoming and starting materials, serial numbers and batches. The required data is collected, checked, documented and archived — all automatically or manually. For this purpose, production warehouses and transport orders for internal logistics can be mapped. In combination with the BiSoftFLS (production control) module, the range and best-before date (best before date) of the material can be included in the analysis. Product quality is increasing, planning accuracy is improving and production and delivery are freed from human errors. In addition, the exact determination of the cause of the fault significantly improves future work processes. “Traceability at the push of a button will be mandatory across industries in the future,” says Möller. “Traceability is becoming a prerequisite for economic success on the market. Systems are becoming ever more technologically complex and their development times are becoming ever shorter. At the same time, the manufacturing industry must face an extreme increase in quality demands on the market. And this requires software that takes on these challenges and provides companies with reliable support. ”Image caption: Roll manufacturing (@sspopov, shutterstock)
