Applying
RFID and barcode labeling technology, and Web-based Site-Specific
Recordkeeping™, closes the Homeland “security gaps” in national and
International freight container shipping in every country around the
world.
(PRWEB) July 17, 2005 -- By applying RFID
and barcode technology in labeling drums, pallets, bins, and RPCs that
are used in transporting foods, fruits, and vegetable crops,
ScoringAg’s Internet-based databank is able to maintain a complete,
Point-to-Point Traceback™ transport record in real time. Accessing the
information stored in the RFID and barcode label and the associated
Web-based databank enables positive identification of the container’s
contents, source, destination, handlers and shippers, and other data
required to maintain security and proper schedules for these critical
entities.
Because sales import and export of food items has become a global
business, ScoringAg’s entity tracking of freight items has become
essential in the extremely important effort of securing the worldwide
food supply from source to final destination, thus protecting the
supply chain from disruption by bio-terrorists. This applies to
everything on our dinner tables, from bulk grains and fresh fruits and
vegetables, to all types of meats and processed foods – all the things
we routinely eat that are exposed to a wide variety of transport and
handling stages.
ScoringSystem’s unique, patented tracking and traceback system utilizes
the latest in RFID and 2D expandable barcode labeling technology, in
combination with a global Web-based databank to capture detailed
history and source verification of package handlers, shippers, and
storage facilities in their use of reusable RPCs, bins, pallets, and
drums to satisfy FDA and Homeland Security rules, as well as all
national and International import / export regulations.
Using Web-based RFID and barcode labeling for supply chain management,
Point-to-Point Traceback™ of products at all shipping stages secures
the entire food supply chain. All transporters, trucks, trailers and
dock loaders are part of the record of movement from one unique
Premises ID Code (PIDC) to the next unique PIDC (point to point along
the chain) for positive source verification. The label’s 2D barcode
also maintains other data for perishable commodities linked to a
traceback record, helping to comply with FDA, USDA, and International
regulations easily, securely, and at very low cost.
ScoringAg.com and its traceback and traceup system, featuring
Site-Specific Recordkeeping™ and PIDC location code, is one of the many
divisions of ScoringSystem, Inc., which is located in Sarasota, Florida
USA and specializes in providing solutions with mobile data, via
wireless PDAs, laptops, and Semacode-programmed Nokia, Siemens, and
Sony Ericsson cell phones. RFID and barcode labeling, and www.ScoringAg.com
for tracking and traceback of transport containers with perishable
commodities and other consumer goods makes managing container tracking
information easier and more secure – and does it in an extremely cost
effective manner.
