New SIMBA Traceability Feature Enables One-Step Receiving Process

By Food Safety Magazine Editorial Team

February 7, 2024

The SIMBA Solutions traceability application now enables one-step inventory receiving with a single barcode scan. SIMBA software is designed specifically for seafood and meat processors, and replaces paper and pen data recording with touch screen and barcode data entry.

The SIMBA software application records inventory from receiving through production, storage, and shipping. The first step for a processor or distributor is to receive the new product into raw materials inventory. For companies that receive cartons labeled with a GS1 barcode, the software’s new receiving feature reduces the receiving steps to a single scan. Because SIMBA’s database is automatically populated with information tied to the GS1 code, companies can spend less time spent at the receiving dock, more quickly recognize raw materials for production, and ensure inventory data is error-free.

SIMBA works well for companies that process in bulk, as well as those that make products to order.  All product is tracked in detail from receiving to shipping, including product features and attributes (e.g., size, color, cut, and etc.)  The solution also provides integration to scales for automatic weight recording.

Key results from implementing the SIMBA system include increased productivity, the ability to get accurate production and inventory reports, full end-to-end traceability, and elimination of duplicate data entry and reporting at time of shipping.
