Management of products and processes traceability
Tracing food processes
Eti.NET follows a food, feed, food-producing animal or substance through
all stages of production and distribution. The food chain is built up by
linking up and integrating data collection and recording systems
throughout the plant/operation giving real-time validation to ensure
compliance with quality procedures and guaranteeing full backward and
forward traceability.

Agricultural production quotas
The system checks that the producers – farmers/suppliers – deliver the
yields/goods up to a max amount fixed at the beginning of the season. This
feature is required by some farm assurance schemes. Over these individual
quotas the data-entry is automatically disabled.

Mandatory labelling requirements
Eti.NET only allows the labelling of the batches compliant with the food
chain schema/protocol: the stakeholders cannot force the data because the
data management system is out of their control and no database or software
codes are resident locally.

Tracing products and processes
Real-time management of food chain information: Eti.NET creates a link
between materials, their origin and processing, distribution and location
after delivery. Information concerning each batch are real-time available
to all the other stakeholders. A food chain holder (chain supervisor) can
retrieve via Internet a real-time overview of the chain data flow i.e.
information on the identity of the single batches/units/lots, where they
have been and when.

The advantages of a Web-based platform
Producer and processor’s directories
The system is able to store directory of producers or processor allow to
deliver products or to process them. The manufacturers can only record
information concerning the suppliers included in these lists. The list
editing is locked up and can be performed only by the granted users in
charge of this task. Details..

Do not buy rent it!
Eti.Net is provided for rent as application service provisioning (ASP): no
buying costs, no investments charge. The platform is full web based: no
local installation required, only web browser is needed.

Cost saving
The robust database and the software codes are placed centrally annulling
the costs of versioning and software updating for all the operators in the
food chain.

Time saving
The time for the implementation/upgrading of IT enabled traceability
systems within a food chain can be dramatically reduced with minimal
changes in process control systems. Eti.NET integrates data from multiple
sources using the XML standard. |
