Serialized Operations Manager

Serialized Operations Manager (SOM) provides a serialization repository and operational hub in packaging, warehouse and distribution activities to handle inbound / outbound product movements, pack / repack / labeling activities, status changes and more.

Challenges

Companies must manage complex serialization and aggregation choreographies to meet operational and compliance objectives, including capturing and reporting serialized product activities between manufacturers and CMOs and 3PLs—such as shipping, receiving, and destruction—as well as activities that trigger compliance reporting in various geographies.

  • Create a serialized product operations hub to manage serialized product state starting at packaging, capture important operational events related to serialized product, and trigger automated compliance reporting to governmental systems or trade partners
  • Build and maintain a serialized product information repository to enable access to key product state and events (shipping, receiving, destruction, sampling, etc.)
  • Make internal operations "serialization-aware" by informing the business of serialized product inventories, critical product movements/events, and current state to help support shipping, receiving, recall management, and other activities

 

Benefits

Serialized Operations Manager helps manufacturers, distributors, and other supply chain participants build and maintain an operational repository for serialized inventory information and events across manufacturing and warehouse operations to support the full lifecycle of serialized inventory management.
