Solutions for Inventory Control and Traceability
There are three SPEDE System solutions for real-time inventory labeling, control and traceability, all of which use RF and RFID to automate and error-proof material handling transactions:
The SPEDE System application modules reside on a server PC on the shop floor or in the warehouse. They support an 802.11b infrastructure and can be used with your existing RF or RFID wireless devices.
SPEDE transacts with host ERP, EDI and WMS systems, but operates independently of these enterprise systems. This ensures that mission-critical processes, such as product labeling or order picking, can continue uninterrupted even if the host system becomes unavalable.

24x7 Reports & Real-time Inquiries
Inventory Visibility at a Granular Level
SPEDE keeps a detailed database of all inventory units for which a label was created. Each record in this Label Database contains part number data, quantity, location, lot number and numerous statuses and other fields such as holds, quarantined, allocated, etc.
SPEDE also keeps a detailed Event database of all transaction, system and labor events recorded.
You can view this rich detailed inventory and event information via browser-based inquiries and reports, using any RF device connected to the SPEDE network. This information is always available on a 24/7 basis, even if your host system is not.

Data Mining Tools to Analyze Inventory Usage
Material planners and other decision-makers can view and analyze inventory and event data by individual Part Number, to identify and correct problems early on:
- Review consumption trends to identify fast and slow moving Parts numbers, and adjust buying and production to achieve optimal levels.
- See how often a part is moved before it's consumed, and adjust warehousing to increase efficiency.
- Identify parts that carry excess quantities and find out why this is, to reduce inventory costs.
- Prioritize improvements based on their financial impact -- carrying costs, cash flow and write-offs -- rather than focusing on inventory turns as the primary measure of improvement.
