most scalable, allowing a multi-phased

FLEXPIPE SYSTEMSBAR CODE SCANNERS TO ELIMINATE PAPER
“Prior to the implementation of the handheld devices and IFS interface, we had limited visibility on serial, batch and lot numbers. With our manual processes it may have taken days to identify and recall a potentially problematic batch of products. We have streamlined the process into a query search that now takes no more than 10 minutes. This also increases the speed at which we can ship our fittings. With our new system, were are able quickly scan each barcode as the products are staged prior to shipping; the manufacturing details, serial numbers etc. are captured and logged instantly increasing labor efficiencies and eliminating the potential for human error.”
