JK Crawlers Chooses NorthScope to Manage Its Lobster Business and Provide Dockside Traceability
MILL CREEK, Wash., December 5, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Looking to enhance the quality of their products by leveraging a user-friendly platform to improve the traceability of their dockside and facility, JK Crawlers chose to go with NorthScope ERP software and its accompanying mobile application. By implementing NorthScope, the premium supplier of live lobster and bait products can access all their critical supply chain data in real-time, reduce tedious data collection, and empower office functions with real-time reporting.
While NorthScope's features extend beyond the scope of JK Crawlers' needs, the company is focused on adopting the mobile application to digitize dockside transactions and capture data in real-time in conjunction with the web application to allow JK Crawlers' back office to manage key business operations such as dockside purchases and sales, inventory, vendors, customers and harvester settlements easily. With the mobile application reporting all operations to the cloud-based web app, these two applications will work together to allow JK Crawlers to:
- Reduce manual data entry and streamline processes
- Significantly reduce human error
- Improve accountability across their supply chain
- Improve traceability of products from harvester to customer
- Log historical data and circumstances
- Digitize grade reports and quality compliance
- Access real-time, customized reporting, including traceability reports, harvester settlements, and more
- Export data to spreadsheets for further analysis
- Easily manage harvesters and vessels
Discussing their move to NorthScope's fully integrated, all-in-one solution, JK Crawlers' President, Kevin d'Eon, said, "JK Crawlers chose NorthScope due to their understanding of the fishing industry and their willingness to adapt and customize to accommodate our needs."
