Batch Management

Applied Control Engineering, Inc. offers a variety of solutions to batch management and reporting challenges. These include both hard-coded batch automation and software driven flexible batch management systems.

Our engineers begin by defining the specific design that best meets the customer needs. Once our customer has approved the final design, it is implemented according to ACE and industry quality standards.

ISA S88-consistent logic is utilized to decrease engineering effort and make the system easier to test and validate. We have successfully implemented projects with a variety of batch and recipe management systems.

It is often a requirement that product genealogy be tracked by lot and batch. We use commercially available configurable database tools to achieve these objectives. This results in a system that is easily maintained and enhanced by the customer without the need for outside expertise.

Reporting can be done on a lot, batch, shift, or event-driven basis. Flexible access to data is emphasized for process management, customer data requirements, and regulatory considerations.

In all cases, our batch management solutions are fully tested prior to site installation. Validation documentation is supplied where required.
