Containers must undergo preloading checks, ensure even weight distribution while loading, and on completion record seal numbers, Variable Gross Mass (VGM) is calculated accurately. At the same time complying with Over Seas Market Access Requirements (OMARS).
MultiPick® efficiently manages loading containers including directive capture of preload and posting of container checks, recording seals and including photos to meet regulatory and exporting country requirements.
Food Manufacturing

Batch and Expiry dates auditing of traceability from raw material to finished product is crucial in case of a recall.
MultiPick® manufacturing extensions seamlessly integrates into the challenges of manufacturing, allowing production staff to make unplanned issues and returns, while maintaining full traceability through to finished products. Material is issued to various points on the production line. Periodical sampling and testing at receiving ensures the quality of raw materials by Quarantining material until all tests are within acceptable tolerances before allowing issuing to production.
MPI Compliance
New Zealand’s primary produce quality guarantee is protected by Ministry of Primary Industries, MPI’s Electronic Documents (E-Doc) system ensures the chain of custody from manufacture, through intermediaries, to international markets is maintained. MPI’s E-Doc compliance plays a major part in our overseas revenue.
MultiPick® is one of the few WMS systems to fully integrate into MPI’s E-cert/E-Doc to track every Carton of meat, block of cheese, carton of fish caught in New Zealand’s waters from inbound Cert through to Export Cert. Integration to MPI means the raising is done in the WMS reducing compliance costs.
Dairy Industry

From issuing of Bulk, Macro and Micro ingredients integrating into robotics for accuracy and efficiency. Once manufactured MultiPick® manages finished product continuing the E-Doc’s traceability through transitional facilities to port of export and final raising of E-Cert’s
