Produce lot number tracking and traceability is a requirement for many produce growing, packing, distribution and processing businesses.
QR Inventory will help you track and trace fresh produce efficiently by using smartphones for qr code / barcode scanning and data collection.
- Track produce lots / batches from the growing stage to harvest, packing and distribution.
- Use QR code or NFC tagging to easily track produce lots through the process by scanning the tag with a smartphone.
- Collect all necessary information on each produce lot on site on a smartphone using mobile forms.
- Send all collected documentation from the mobile devices to the cloud, access on demand from anywhere. Filter records by multiple parameters to quickly find required documentation.
- In the case of a problem that requires a recall, quickly find where each produce lot had been distributed.
- Analyze collected data to find and eliminate the reasons for the produce problems and recalls.
- Track produce through the entire supply chain with blockchain traceability software. Use Shared Traceability
as an add-on to QR Inventory, or as a stand alone food traceability solution.
Produce Tracking and Traceability On Site With Barcode Scanning
Your produce traceability program starts from the field where produce is growing, or as you receive produce from the supplier.
Label individual lots with weather proof permanent QR code labels or NFC tags, and track all operations done during the growing season, from fertilization to
pruning to applying pecticides, by scanning the label with a smartphone and filling out mobile forms.
During the produce harvest time, label containers with the pre-printed QR code labels, transfer all data collected during the growing time by scanning QR code on the produce lot,
and collect any additional information on site using mobile forms.
Continue lot tracking and data collection process through the subsequent produce workflow stages: delivery, packing, processing and shipping to the customer. Join the produce supply chain
at any point, and track produce operation through your part of the supply chain efficiently using mobile devices and barcode / QR code scanning.
Real Time Data Access Via Secure Cloud
All information collected on the mobile devices is sent to a secure centralized cloud location, and can be accessed by all authorized users in real time.
All authorized company employees can access up to the minute live information on the produce flow from anywhere via a secure web dashboard.
Produce Lot Splitting And Data Transfer
During the produce flow from field to sale you may need to subdivide bigger produce lots into a smaller ones. For example, you may have the same operations done on the entire produce field,
but during the harvest time you may track part of this lot differently due to the differnt pick dates, transportation conditions, etc. QR Inventory allows you to easily transfer
information collected on the bigger lot to the smaller ones - all you need to do is scan a QR code to copy all information collected up to date. You can then proceed with
collecting more information on each individual smaller lot using mobile devices for QR code scanning and data collection.
Use Mobile Forms For Produce Quality Control And Food Safety Inspections
Food safety and quality control inspections is an essential part of any produce processing businesses.
With QR Inventory, you can fill out all food safety and quality control paperwork on site using mobile forms.
Link forms to the produce processing steps, so that your employees know what form(s) need to be filled out
on each step. Include clarifications, and optionally image(s) to the mobile form to explain what needs to be checked and how, and avoid emplyee errors.
Records submitted via mobile forms are stored in a secure centralized cloud location, and can be accessed on demand as needed. Administrator can create pdf report based on the completed form,
store it off site and e-mail to the selected addresses.
Lot Traceability Through The Entire Supply Chain - Blockchain Traceability Solution
Food traceability usually does not start and stop within your company. You probably buy raw ingredients or pre-fabricated food products from other suppliers,
and / or perhaps you are shipping the product to the customer who is not an end user.
When each supply chain company records traceability information in it's own internal traceability software system at best, and
using paper and pencil at worst, each company needs to do more manual work and it is still impossible to get the entire traceability picture.
Our
Shared Traceability solution, which is based
on
blockchain technology
solves this problem. It allows companies within a supply chain network to share traceability data,
so that all supply chain partners have an immediate access to the complete, end-to-end traceability information. Shared Traceability can be used
as an add-on to QR Inventory or as a stand alone product. Please
let us know
if you would like to learn more about
Shared Traceability or would like to try it out.
