Dynamic Systems, a maker of barcode technology, has teamed up with enterprise resource planning (ERP) supplier Northlake Partners to provide an automated traceability system that enables real-time visibility—from fish to financials— for the seafood and produce industries. The integration of the two applications will also help manufacturers comply with rules emerging from the Food and Drug Administration’s Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).
Dynamic Systems’ Simba traceability and labeling software uses barcode technology to automate data collection as the food is processed and packed, recording details such as product attributes, pack dates, inventory locations and shipping information.
