EXENTA Makes Real-time Production Monitoring a Reality for Remote Retailers, Brands, Execs

EXENTA, Inc. (http://www.exentago.com), the innovator in next-generation information technology solutions for the apparel and other soft goods industries, is unveiling a groundbreaking new Shopfloor 3PM™ (Third-Party Manufacturing) cloud solution that enables retailers, brands, sourcing and production executives to achieve real-time visibility into order status, work-in-process (WIP), and other important manufacturing activities from anywhere in the world. Using a standard web browser, stakeholders can get up to the minute information on production orders, WIP levels, product quality, and more from third-party providers, contractors, or owned and operated factories.

According to Exenta President and CEO Roberto Mangual, "After transforming factories around the globe with real-time shop floor control solutions, we recognized the opportunity to provide the transparency and control needed by remote production package buyers, sourcing and supply chain managers, and others that rely on status updates and on-time deliveries from factories around the globe. We are already seeing strong interest from major retailers in this exciting solution."

When used as a standalone solution, the Shopfloor 3PM system uses a series of cost-effective Android™-powered tablets to collect production information from key factory checkpoints that represent manufacturing process milestones; such as cutting, parts construction, select assembly operations, quality control inspections, finishing, packing and shipping. This data is processed in the cloud and made accessible to authorized users through any Internet-capable device. Factories that are already equipped with, or choose to install, the full Shopfloor SFC system can provide an expanded set of data on individual production operations as well as time and attendance, up/downtime, efficiency, utilization, incentive pay, capacity planning and scheduling, and other detailed information. Summary reports are also available through the system.

"Meeting customer demand in today's fast-paced business environment requires that both buyers and sellers keep on top of manufacturing to stay ahead of the game", explained Exenta Director of Real-time Analytics Justin Hershoran. "Shopfloor 3PM brings real-time visibility and control to entire supply chains with always up to date and actionable information."

About EXENTA
Designed for the apparel, fashion, industrial and consumer soft goods industries, EXENTA empowers brands, manufacturers, and retailers to advance and scale their businesses by accelerating and improving performance across the entire business and global supply chain. The EXENTA™ ENTERPRISE solution provides global process visibility, control, and collaboration by combining traditionally independent Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Supply Chain Management (SCM), Materials Requirements Planning (MRP), Shop Floor Control (SFC), Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), Warehouse Management (WMS), Financial Management (FMS), and other productivity tools into a single, industry-focused business system.

Rhett Wheeler, chosen as a finalist in the Top Business Leader Awards, joined the Bill Howe Family of Companies in 2016. His official title is Risk Manager; however, he has become an integral asset to the company reflecting in many areas. As Risk Manager, Rhett has decreased incidents of unsafe and distracted driving with his driving onboarding program, reduced fuel costs, and increased morale with beginning employees as their first point of contact outside of Human Resources.

Rhett also plays the role of job audits and has set up a procedure that allows him to visit all 125 plus field employees' job site at least once per month.

Pets persist in piling on pounds

Over 40 percent of cats and dogs are now said to be obese and as with their human owners, health problems from diabetes to heart disease can come along with it. Read here.

The latest software advances mean pets can be fitted with fitness trackers and the results monitored. In much the same way as careful drivers are rewarded with lower premiums, owners can be offered a discount for a healthy pet. Technology also allows pet, vet, insurer and owner to be linked digitally as never before. While this is being used to educate owners and improve pet health in general, it can also identify wayward owners too.

"We have been debating the pet obesity issue with our clients for some time and it is clear some pet parents are not getting the message," said Aquarium Software Director, Mark Colonnese. "Technology can help owners keep their schnauzer and siamese in shape, but it can be used to penalise those who will not listen with higher premiums or a refusal of cover, while offering discounts to those who care for their pets. Good diet is part of treating a pet with respect and that is a lesson many of us could probably apply to ourselves," Mark added.

"We have seen Fitbits for pets and other gadgets, and while these work, we need to see a change in owner attitudes," said Colonnese. "A rise in obesity related illness and injury is leading some insurers to ask if a pet is obese before they will consider insurance, due to the risk of a related claim. Cover can be refused for certain conditions, based on pet weight, so the advice would be to get that tabby on the treadmill, if need be," Mark concluded. Aquarium has the best technology platform on the market, to meet the specific demands of the niche general insurance sector. Its clients are rewarded with reduced technological cost base coupled with capabilities that set them apart from the competition.

Ivey Engineering Awards $1,000 Scholarship to UCLA Freshman Aubrey Butler

Ivey Engineering, Inc., (IEI), an engineering consulting firm, is pleased to announce the winner of the summer 2018 bi-annual scholarship essay contest. The winner, Aubrey Butler of Upland, California, will attend the University of California, Los Angeles in the fall.

Butler recently graduated from Upland High School with a 4.8 GPA and will major in biochemistry at UCLA. She hopes to eventually work in the biotech industry. Be alert to the latest news.

"My pronounced love of science is driven by my desire to help solve the constantly emerging problems on this earth," Butler says. "I believe that this is the only home that we have. I see myself in the future working towards solutions that are sustainable and viable," she says.

Butler competed with over 100 other college students from the United States and Canada. Applicants were tasked to write an 800- to 1,000-word essay on one of three topics and were judged for creativity and originality. Butler's winning essay discussed several unique ways to incorporate energy efficiency into a building. One tip she mentions in her essay is properly orienting a building during the construction phase. Be alert to read related news.

"The goal is to position the building in such a way that solar gain for energy use is maximized while still minimizing heat gain during hot summer days," Butler explains in her essay.

"Aubrey's essay was focused and provided original insight and ideas on energy efficiency," says Scott Friesen, president of IEI. "You can tell that Aubrey spent some time doing research from the quality of her essay," he says.

"We're impressed with Aubrey's motivation and where she wants to go in life," Friesen says.

IEI understands how valuable a college education is and also the expense that goes along with it. The scholarship contest is a win for both IEI and the student since it allows the firm to give back to the community.

Any potential or current college or university undergraduate student within the United States or Canada is able to apply. The next deadline for essays to be submitted is Nov. 1, 2018.

Exercise in Pregnancy, How Much and What Kind?

In most cases, exercising during pregnancy is safe and even recommended. Women who were physically active before becoming pregnant can generally continue to be active – though perhaps not at the same level – as long as it is comfortable and there are no complicating factors. Those who did not exercise regularly before pregnancy are generally advised by their healthcare provider to begin a program of moderate exercise. "Regular exercise is beneficial for expectant mothers," says obstetrician-gynecologist Dr. John Thoppil. "It can reduce the effects of some of the common discomforts of pregnancy, such as backache and fatigue, it can improve energy and mood, and it can help build the stamina needed for labor and delivery."

Which exercises are best during pregnancy?
The safest exercises for pregnant women are those that have the least risk of injury, involve the entire body, and are easy on the joints and muscles. Good choices include brisk walking, swimming and water workouts, stationary cycling, low-impact aerobics, and yoga and Pilates that have been modified for pregnant women. Women who are experienced joggers or racket-sports players may be able to continue those activities with medical approval.

Which activities should be avoided?
Activities that increase the risk of injury include those most likely to cause a fall, such as snow or water skiing, surfing, horseback riding, and gymnastics; contact sports, such as softball, basketball, and volleyball; and any exercise that includes jarring motions, rapid changes in direction, or extensive jumping, hopping, or bouncing. "Changes to the body during pregnancy must be taken into account in choosing exercises," says Dr. Thoppil. "For example, your center of gravity changes, particularly late in pregnancy, affecting balance and making falling more likely; that's why stationary cycling is safer than a standard bicycle. Also, pregnancy hormones make the joints more flexible and subject to injury, which explains why sudden movements and high-impact motion are best avoided."

How much exercise is recommended for pregnant women?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity every week, which could be 30 minutes all at once five days a week or broken up into smaller increments during the day. Those who are new to exercise should start with as little as five minutes a day and add five minutes each week, working up to 30 minutes of sustained activity.

When should exercise be avoided or stopped?
Exercise may be inadvisable for women with certain medical conditions, such as heart disease or asthma, or for those with high-risk pregnancies due to a history of miscarriage, pre-term labor, or cervical insufficiency. Exercise should be stopped and a doctor consulted in the presence of warning signs such as dizziness or feeling faint, rapid or irregular heartbeat, chest or abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding or fluid leakage, muscle weakness, or any unusual or sudden physical irregularity.

Tips for exercising during pregnancy
Dr. Thoppil recommends these precautions and guidelines:

"Staying active during pregnancy is important and beneficial," says Dr. Thoppil. "Exercise strengthens the muscles, conditions the entire body, helps to maintain health, and keeps the pregnant woman feeling her best. Staying fit will help the expectant mother give her child the best opportunity for a healthy start in life."

Bio: John Thoppil, MD, leads River Place Obstetrics and Gynecology in Austin, Texas. A board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist and a Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, Dr. Thoppil also is an assistant professor at Texas A&M University College of Medicine and the president elect of the Texas Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. http://www.riverplaceobg.com
