Technical logistics tracking technology. In fact, for companies, the goal is to provide customers with satisfactory products and services by improving their core competitiveness. The use of technology is just a means. Therefore, we believe that the important thing for companies is not whether the barcode technology is adopted, but whether the technology is conducive to improving management.

The development of social economy and the intensification of market competition have presented a series of challenges to industrial production. The goals of efficiency, quality, and cost pursued by industrial production in the age of industrialization have been given new content. The number of products produced per unit of time has no longer become the main symbol of corporate competitiveness. The time from product development to product launch is The key for enterprises to win the market and customers, information has become the decisive factor for the survival and development of enterprises, and the production technology and organization management of enterprises are undergoing profound changes.

The product bar code application combines bar code technology and computer information management to prepare for the comprehensive informatization of enterprises and the entry of the electronic age. Based on the application of product barcodes, companies can efficiently manage product material preparation, production process, sales and circulation, and after-sales service.

PBA? (Product Barcode Application)-MES (Manufacturing Executive System) is a product bar code application-manufacturing executive system is a set of information system that combines bar code technology for manufacturing production process management. It provides operators/managers with the execution and tracking of plans and the current status of resources (people, equipment, materials, customer needs, etc.).
