Serialized Operations Manager

Build and maintain an operational repository for serialized inventory information and events across manufacturing operations

A single hub to coordinate serialized product operations across global markets

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

• Automation capabilities for efficient serialization workflows
• An operational repository for accurate serialization inventory data and events
• Real-time visibility into serialized product inventory and product status

Addressing the need for optimized information operations

New operational and compliance mandates require companies to capture and report serialized product activities between manufacturers, CMOs, and 3PLs. However, most internal operations are not "serialization-aware," making it difficult to capture and report relevant activities. Challenges include:

Inefficient serialization processes disrupt operations

The process of managing serialized product state starting at packaging, capturing important operational events related to serialized product, and reporting compliance to governmental systems and trade partners creates new operational burdens.

Access to serialization information across markets

To keep up with the evolving industry, supply chain players must collectively build and maintain a serialized product information repository to enable access to key product state and events (shipping, receiving, destruction, sampling, etc.).

Transformation of internal business operations

It’s important to 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.

Automate serialization workflows from a centrally maintained operational repository

• Create automated, efficient workflows
• Gain serialized product visibility
• Streamline reporting with business rules
• Enhance serialization data repository accuracy
• Improve supply chain planning
