WIP Operations Traceability

---

The SPEDE WIP Operations Traceability function ensures that serialized containers of WIP parts (purchased, produced and components) proceed through each required WIP operation, and in the correct sequence. 

Use Barcode scanning and/or vision sensors at the start of each process for: 

• Real-time error-proofing of WIP issuing and routing 
• Real-time visibility of all Parts, Quantities and current Operation it's in now
• Automatic creation of detailed WIP Traceability records for quick access if QC issue or recall happens 

WIP Tracking and Inventory Functions:

• Issue a Hold by Part, Vendor Lot or Serial Number
• Scrap by Part, Vendor Lot or Serial Number
• Move Transactions by scanning WIP Serial and To Location
• Locations can be Free or Fixed to Product
• Inquiries by Part Number, Your Lot, Vendor Lot(s), or Operation
• Cycle Count and Physical Count

WIP Routing by WIP or Finished Goods Part Number

• List of Operations Sequence
• Sequence (1, 2, 3, 4, 5...) can be Fixed by part number 
• Sequence (1, 2, 4, 3, 5...) can be Dynamic by part set up 
• Process for Line Check parts removal and return to original container
• Process for Scrap components in process
• Can use detailed component-issued quantities, or can use last-in method for Lot traceability
• Set-up is via SPEDE Web application  

WIP Labeling at each Operation

• Operator sign-on for accountability
• Begin Start of Run - and traceability
• Bill of Material identifies purchased parts, produced parts, components
• SPEDE verifies the correct parts are used at this Operation
• Print Labels
• PLC integrated counts
• Weigh Count

Print WIP Label with: 

• Part, description/ operation, date/time, operator, lot, next operation, serial number
• Issue to next Operation 

Operational Reports and Inquiries: 

• By Part, Operation, Our Lot, Vendor Lot, Location, FIFO date, Operator  
• Inventory by location, FIFO
• See containers in process
• Recycled
• Lot from / to Traceability
• Combined, Split, Adjusted
• On Hold
