The DRAMS Solution

DRAMScan barrel scanning software is part of the DRAMS system, a bulk inventory and distillery warehouse management software solution that has been specifically developed to meet the unique requirements of maturing spirit producers.

Equipped to control bulk stocks of any spirit from bourbon to whiskey, rum to tequila, DRAMS provides a complete profile of available stock and its value, producing key reports and audit trails required by various Custom Bodies, including HMRC and the Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB).

DRAMS provides control over multi-location, multi-warehouse environments where stocks may belong to the holding company or to 3rd parties. It records all spirit movements in barrels or in bulk, keeping a full history of all transactions, including all spirit losses and gains.

Graphical warehouse analysis allows the warehouse manager to optimise the use of available space, while easy to use enquiry screens and blending functions enable the blend team to identify and select the stock which best meets their requirements.

Supplied with an extensive range of dashboards and reports, DRAMS empowers users to gain visibility into operational performance; accurately manage the spirit inventory; and provide key stakeholders with the insights required to improve business performance.

The comprehensive inventory insights can also be used to produce key reports and audit trails which are required by various statutory regulations, ensuring regulatory compliance.
