What We Do
Working across sectors means...
...Outcross Systems clients benefit from the continuous quality improvement in sale operation, and innovations are shared across sites.
Outcross Systems draws on the synergies between it’s strategic consulting, practical sales operations, and cutting edge technology. Each informs the other, and improvements are shared and implemented on a weekly basis. It’s the TEAM principle: Together, everyone achieves more.
Synergy happens because we all understand the overall objective. Our people are personally committed to keep improving what we do. We leverage technology at every level. And we love what we do.
It also means that clients benefit from working with a holistic system. With Outcross Systems, the buck stops here. When issues arise, we can usually solve them with one phone call. We’re committed to resolving issues.
Drafting
NVD entry is completed as stock arrive, enabling the vendor lots to be entered and balanced at the draft. Early balancing enables agents to balance their run up to 14 hours earlier. Outcross Systems tablet and smart phone software allows NLIS tags to be scanned early and moved with a lot as stock are shuffled in the run.
Scanning
Outcross Systems mobile device options have revolutionised NLIS compliance in sheep and cattle saleyards providing major efficiency gains.
Weighing
Weighing speeds improve as sale data is already entered and checked before cattle reach the scales. E-clerking reduce delays by allowing a choice of weighing order. Lot recognition enables out-of-order weighing and therefore improved weighing throughput.
Sale Balancing
Rapid data dissemination means agents, vendors and buyers can resolve any paperwork discrepancies and balance the sale before they leave for the day. E-Clerking allows buyers to sign off immediately when they have completed buying stock.
