The SPEDE Work-in-Process module is a wireless solution that automates WIP tracking processes and eliminates manual spreadsheets, to provide a real-time view of WIP inventory and production totals - 24/7.

SPEDE WIP enables you to label, track and trace WIP at the serialized unit level for 100% accuracy.

Serialized WIP labels can be printed on-demand using real-time data from your ERP system.

By scanning the WIP label, or using RF-enabled weigh scales or PLCs, you can record WIP movement and production totals automatically, in real-time.

You'll know the location and status of each WIP unit, whether in production, the WIP warehouse, QC quarantine, or offsite for processing.

The SPEDE Work-in-Process module is built on a 802.11 platform that manages the real-time network of RF and RFID devices using a thin-client architecture. It transacts with any host ERP system via loosely coupled interfaces, for real-time data exchange and automatic updates.

Before SPEDE, data was handwritten and then keyed into ERP the next day.

Now we scan Material Moves and Production Receipts, and ERP is updated automatically.

Real-time WIP Information - 24/7

Production Report Screen

Real-time Production Data

The SPEDE WIP solutions create a real-time shop floor reporting environment at the PC level, that runs independently of your host ERP system.

You can access current production totals, and view real-time WIP inventory and status details on a 24/7 basis via inquiries and browser-based reports, using any RF device connected to the SPEDE RF network.

Your plant and enterprise personnel can view real-time production data at an individual facility, by order number, machine, shift, work cell, etc., and view status information such as quarantines.

Management can compare actuals to schedules, identify issues that require immediate action, and spot emerging trends that can cause problems down the line.
