DeltaTRAK, a leading provider of cold chain management solutions, has announced the launch of ColdTRAK PIMM, an integrated realtime management solution for every step in the food service cold chain. The system allows suppliers, consolidators, distributors and final receivers to monitor, analyse and share temperature data through the entire process.
The system provides both delivery and facility management capability. For in-transit deliveries, suppliers, distributors and final receivers have access to the temperature history of each trip within minutes of arrival. For store routed deliveries, the solution offers trailer management, route management and GPS mapping options, providing customers with realtime temperature and trailer location data. A wireless system that supports up to 256 sensors is available for warehouse or in-store facility management, as part of the solution. The implementation of this system eliminates unproductive time spent taking manual temperature reading in walk-in coolers, freezers, refrigerators, display cases, warmers, ovens, fryers and cooking grills.
ColdTRAK PIMM includes a unique feature – the operations scoreboard, a rating system that can be applied uniformly across all cold chain resources. This scoreboard can be customised to evaluate quality assurance goals, identify weak links and proactively take corrective actions. This management solution is very easy to use and includes an online facility that can be set up to display important trip, facility and product temperature information, based on customer criteria.
Implementation of ColdTRAK PIMM reduces the risks associated with food safety, improves food quality and increases product shelf life by creating transparent supply chain accountability.
