Controlled Inventory Management Software

Manual inventory systems can produce a large amount of time-consuming paperwork requiring increased resources that can increase operating costs. An inventory management system is essential to reduce the risk of incorrect or unreliable inventory records from manual management and data recording. Manual errors such as the release of an untested lot, using a quarantined lot for batch production, or measuring the wrong amount of a controlled substance can have a disastrous impact for patients or consumers.

Novatek’s Controlled Inventory Management software is a powerful application that can avoid such serious accidents and accurately tracks samples, reagents, materials, compounds, controlled substances, and[IE3]  other controlled items such as narcotics and medical marijuana  used throughout an organization’s entire manufacturing and production process.

About the Software

A complete chain of custody and tracking of each compound history and transactions, including dates, labels, amount change, cost change, user and witness sign offs is kept across all activities from receipt to shipment (receipt, sample testing, release, check-out, dispensing, check-in, approvals, shipping).

Bar-code scanning and color coding allows users to quickly access important information such as viewing all outstanding lots or the expiration date.  Bar-code scanning also ensures the correct materials are assigned for batch production and facilitates the complete process of check-out, dispense and check-in, etc. The inventory of all materials can be filtered and displays the physical inventory location of lots and sub-lots, current amounts and cost, history of any compound and status. Widely regarded for its outstanding security features, Novatek’s controlled Inventory Management software manages controlled substances through the application’s access permissions, audit trail, witness signature feature for check-out, integration to analytical balances to read the correct amount and automated notification and investigation launch if the system detects that the amount to be checked-in does not match. Our software allows users to easily manage the next available lot and prepare orders for on-time shipment with minimal product discard.
