Barcoding, Inc. Demonstrates Supply Chain Mobility Solution for Food Distribution at IFDA DSC 2011

Oct. 24, 2011 - PRLog -- Barcoding, Inc., a leader in enterprise-wide mobility solutions, today announced that it will be presenting a live demonstration of its supply chain mobility solution for food distribution at booth 131 at the International Foodservice Distributors Association’s (IFDA) 2011 Distribution Solutions Conference (DSC), held Oct. 24-26, 2011, at the Fort Worth Convention Center in Fort Worth, Texas. This annual conference showcases the latest trends, products and innovations in foodservice distribution, and provides industry leaders with insight on applying these solutions to their business.

Demonstration Details:
Barcoding’s live demonstration, “Accelerating the Supply Chain,” will illustrate how mobile hardware and software solutions promote efficiency, accuracy and visibility for food distributors. Comprised of solutions from the integrator’s extensive network of partners, including the latest rugged hardware from Intermec Inc. (http://www.barcoding.com/partners/intermec.shtml), the demonstration emphasizes the benefits of automation and mobility throughout the supply chain.

• Warehouse Logistics: During the first stage, Barcoding showcases how the integration of automated identification and data capture (AIDC) technology with a proven warehouse management solution or custom inventory tracking application, and mobile computers gives distributors real-time inventory visibility and accurate order-filling capabilities.
• Transportation: As inventory is loaded onto trucks for delivery at stage two, Barcoding offers a fleet management solution that not only reduces operational costs and enforces safety compliance with an electronic onboard recording device, but also enables distributors to monitor the locations of assets, resources and inventory, at all times, ensuring that deliveries are made on schedule.
• Delivery Management: When a product reaches its destination at stage three, Barcoding’s delivery management solutions incorporate mobile proof-of-delivery (POD) software on rugged handheld computers to ensure check-in accuracy and product freshness for compliance with traceability initiatives. With advanced bar code scanning and mobile printers, delivery drivers can instantaneously print “clean” electronic invoices, process payments upon delivery, and automate data entry to increase efficiencies while reducing inaccuracies.

Shane Snyder, vice president of sales, Barcoding, Inc., said, “With new compliance requirements and guidelines from FSMA, it is imperative for food distributors to implement appropriate technologies to ensure food deliveries are fresh and safe. At Barcoding, we are consistently working with our partners to develop and implement cutting-edge supply chain mobility solutions for our customers. Our live demonstrations are ideal for any foodservice distributor interested in leveraging technology to enhance efficiency inside and outside the four walls, boost their profitability, and comply with the most stringent food distribution regulations.”
