Lost Hills, California
Pacific Almond is a huller and processor of almonds. They receive nuts from their own farms and from outside growers. They ship nuts world wide. We developed an Inventory and Production Scheduling system for them that includes:

• Receiving of raw almonds in bins and bin dump trailers from their farms and outside growers
• Enter data to generate bar-coded bin tags (Grower, Commodity, Variety, etc.)
• Print bin tags, scan tags as moved to warehouse


• Order Entry
• Production Scheduling
• Create production schedule (work orders) based on customer orders and available inventory
• Print and distribute Daily Production Schedule by Line


• Move bins to production lines
• Forklift drivers use bar-code scanners to log all bin moves fro warehouse to production line, warehouse to warehouse, production line to production line, etc.


• Generate Processing, Final Grading and Pallet tags at production lines
• A bar coded bin tag is generated at the output of every production line.


• QC information logged at Final Grading and Sizer
• QC information for each bin tag is entered into a PC. The QC information can be reviewed in the system at any time. QC reports can be generated for growers


• Stage and Ship Product
• Orders ready to ship are staged near shipping and logged with bar code scanners
• Pallets of product are loaded on to trucks and the orders are shipped in the system
• Packing Lists and Bills of Lading are generated from the system


• Product Tracking
• The identity and origin of all product can be traced in the system
• Bin and Pallet Tags are associated with all source tags that go into them


• Web-based reporting
• Inventory by warehouse and product
• Bin and Pallet Tags, drilling down to source tags
• Product Shipped reports
