Computerway's Process Management System
Tracks & Manages Raw Materials
GAINESVILLE, Ga. (June 9, 2005) — Computerway Food Systems’ Process Management system tracks and manages raw material receiving, inventory, formula configuration, batch scheduling and processing, and yield tracking.
Raw materials can include dry goods and any type of packaging. The raw material inventory is based on FIFO (first in, first out) product rotation.
The system’s web-based technology uses PDAs as collection devices for scanning materials into and out of batch processes. System data is also collected through the use of scales, PCs and scanners.
Benefits of the system include real time raw material inventory, improved product rotation, reduced clerical work, better control over product formulations, improved process control and enhanced recall capabilities.
“When tied in with other Computerway applications, the Process Management system can provide recall capabilities from finished goods all the way back to the product source materials,” said Bill Altenpohl, Computerway Food Systems president.
Founded in 1986, Computerway Food Systems is located in High Point, N.C. The company offers two major product lines, Computerway, computerized production and inventory control systems for food production and processing plants, and Chickway, electronic weighing systems designed for high speed sorting on overhead conveyors.
