Aircom Offers High-tech Solutions for Product Traceability
Thursday, 12 June 2008 10:22

Leave the logistics to Aircom. As your contract manufacturing partner, Aircom offers the ultimate in seamless tracking. There's no need to worry about how to get the right product to the right customer in a timely fashion. Let Aircom's technology work for you.

Here's how our custom-designed tracking system works: As soon as our client receives a customer order, Aircom's system is notified. The software tells us what product to ship, verifies the scanned product's part number and serial number, and prints a packing list. Through integration with UPS, the package is then automatically placed into the delivery schedule.

The whole shipping process takes just 30 seconds, and at the end of the day, Aircom creates a file containing all of the orders shipped, with their PO numbers, line numbers, part numbers, serial numbers and UPS tracking numbers, along with the shipping date. All of this information is transferred back to Aircom's client, who may then share the information with its individual customers.

"There's no room for human error," says Bjoern Gottschild, Aircom's Director of IT and Logistics. "It's all barcoded; there's no typing. The system just processes it."

Aircom works closely with its clients to custom-design tracking systems that will give all parties the information they need.

Working hand-in-hand with one client, Aircom recently designed such a process for a high-volume job that the client was not equipped to handle alone. "The system is set up so that we can ship up to 800 packages a day from one station," Gottschild said.

The process was designed for speed, high-volume and accuracy. This level of traceability gives clients peace-of-mind that their products will be promptly direct-shipped, without errors that can occur when data is typed in manually.

If Aircom can do that for one customer, what can it do for you? To learn more about seamless tracking and traceability, contact Aircom Manufacturing at (317) 545-5383.
