Product Tracking and Traceability

In today's world, the ability to trace materials and track the manufacturing process from start to finish is essential. Companies are under increasing pressure either from regulatory requirements or their existing customers to meet the demands for end-to-end traceability. Traceability needs to be automatic, both in its acquisition of data and in its ability to produce granular traceability reports on demand.

The ability to react quickly to consumer safety issues is vital and this depends on the capabilities of a comprehensive traceability solution, and the quality and speed of the systems in place.

To improve profitability and overall business performance, manufacturers have to make intelligent production decisions in real time. Success depends on complete and accurate information from the plant floor, the ability to consistently and reliably operate the equipment used in the manufacturing processes and for a record to be maintained of all items involved in a batch or production run, including ingredients, equipment and operators.

Our powerful traceability solutions are used extensively within heavily regulated manufacturing environments including Pharmaceutical, Medical Device, Aerospace & Defence and help manufacturers make intelligent production decisions in real-time. This means manufacturers can detect specification deviations and respond rapidly to unforeseen production events from whatever cause, minimising product recalls, complying with regulatory requirements and preserving brand integrity, whilst achieving an overall reduction in business risk.

EmsPT provide traceability solutions that will:

• Minimise business risk and at the same time deliver business insight for continuous improvement
• Increase agility in production processes to react to changing customer demand in a controlled manner, by providing the right information, to the right people at the right time
• Ensure consistent production execution reducing production errors and product variance
• Record actual values for information related to the consumption and genealogy of materials, equipment usage, personnel, and information from other production events related to lot, batch or serial number
• Provide the tools to react quickly in isolating suspect product and rapidly respond to unforeseen production events such as product recalls
• Assist consistent interpretation of operating guidelines and procedures
• Drive higher level of plant performance through a clearer understanding of the best operating practices relevant to individual businesses
