Supply Chain

Global Supply Chain Manager

Modern retailers are building closer relationships with their local producers – to guarantee supply continuity.  Quality focused retailers want guaranteed product traceability from farm to consumer.

Livestock Management Software

Our global supply-chain manager provides retailers with multiple national and international farmer relationships with through-chain traceability and farm performance management.  In common with our other FarmWizard products, our global supply chain solution is easy to use and web native.  Both farmers and suppliers have no need to worry about costly software or hardware installation.

Our Supply-Chain solution is already in use by retailers such as Dovecote Park “Dedicated to Waitrose”  for management of its multi-farm sourced Cattle Connect animals – and by Checkers Supermarkets in South Africa to provide end-to-end traceability and performance management for its Checkers Angus brand.

Global Supply-Chain Manager incorporates a fully integrated electronic ID system that automates the process of collecting data from farms.  We have partnered with hardware manufacturer Dalton EID to deliver this component.

Using EID, data is collected on animals at farm, to collate livestock levels and weight performance, health statuses, and feed control – and through to feeding lots, to abattoir to retail.

Retail users of the FarmWizard Supply-Chain Manager have visibility of individual and aggregate livestock and key performance data such as producer league tables, kills plans and availability.

Key Product Benefits:

  • An easy to use web based solution meaning less up-front investment in costly technology
  • Fully integrated EID incorporating multiple collection devices (such as PDAs), SMS and RFID resulting in simpler, less error-prone data management
  • Full through-chain traceability of livestock and carcasses – allowing for statutory and quality compliance
  • At-a-glance supplier metrics allowing for capacity and campaign planning
