The ability to manage a recall effectively is only as good as your ability to perform traceability backwards and forwards through the supply chain. To support this need and conform to the FDA’s identification and traceability regulations for food manufacturers, Deacom’s ERP solution utilizes lot tracking, asset tracking, and serialization to allow users to identify and trace material at each stage of the product lifecycle. Lot traceability within the ERP software provides the ability to see every lot that went into a particular job as well as details for reporting purposes. In the event of a recall, a food manufacturer will have to quickly and accurately generate those reports to determine where the contaminated or defective lot came from, where the lot was used, or who it was shipped to. Since DEACOM ERP operates on a single data set, this can be accomplished seamlessly and full lot tracking reports can be created with just a few mouse clicks.
