ROPICS - Key Benefits

ROPICS Enables Automated Inventory Management While Eliminating Compliance Exposure in FDA-Regulated Companies.

Innovatum developed the ROPICS Radio Frequency Order Picking and Inventory Control System to address the compliance challenges of warehouse operations in FDA-regulated environments. Consequently, ROPICS is ideal for any company that wants to:

• Improve inventory accuracy and enable real-time data.
• Eliminate the cost of investigating, documenting and resolving inaccurate inventory counts.
• Eliminate unnecessary material moves, thereby increasing productivity.
• Reduce "safety" inventory, which not only saves the raw cost of the materials, but also the carrying cost in terms of space and the negative impact on working capital.
• Reduce, if not eliminate, inventory obsolescence (i.e. expired product), which reduces both the material costs, as well as the carrying costs
• Enable "first-in-first-out" (FIFO) procedures.
• Link appropriate material batches to shop orders in real-time; improving productivity and turn-around times while reducing "scrap" losses.
• Check for material requirements against current bills of material.
• Remove the burden of manual lot browsing and selection from warehouse personnel.
• Enable system-directed material movement, staging and issues.
• Remove the need to manually subvert "hard allocations."
• Enable automated bar code data collection to increase accuracy, provide real-time data and increase productivity.
• Replace manual or "wall-to-wall" inventory counts with automated cycle counting to significantly increase accuracy while significantly reducing labor expenses.
• Meet compliance requirements of 21 CFR Part 11, as well as relevant international standards.
