PakSense is releasing a new technology AutoSense- a wireless, automated system that sends cold chain temperature data to smart phones. This technology automates temperature monitoring programs to help suppliers, retailers and processors prepare for the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) regulations that will require more stringent traceability and documentation of perishable goods through the supply chain. AutoSense helps Quality Assurance staff make better product quality and safety decisions.

Rachel Beckler, PakSense Marketing Communications Manager: “AutoSense components include PakSense Wireless Labels and AutoSense Readers. Labels are placed on perishable loads to monitor temperatures. When product is received, the labels are auto-detected by the AutoSense Reader and cold chain data is automatically forwarded to pre-defined users via email or text. Data delivered to the smartphone includes supplier name, product description, temperature alert condition, receiving location, high/low/average temperature and a temperature graph. Data can also be forwarded to a central repository for ongoing carrier, supplier and route analysis as part of an overall business intelligence strategy.

 

 AutoSense automatically delivers cold chain temperature data to smartphones, increasing efficiencies at perishable receiving locations and streamlining processes. The system, typically installed in distribution centers or retail locations, is self-contained, utilizes cellular networks, and does not require IT departments to oversee installation or ongoing maintenance.  Utilizing AutoSense, receiving staff can make better product quality and safety decisions before products are unloaded simply by consulting their smartphones.”
