The Milk Procurement System (MPS) is built on MS/Access, and is appropriate for the small to medium sized dairy operations. The primary function of the MPS is to expedite a dairy or dairy cooperative’s Producer Payroll process. This is accomplished using a very user-friendly system that documents the pickup, testing, and delivery of milk, as well as issues payment to Producers of milk and those responsible for its transport.
The organizational structure of milk producers varies from the traditional family farm, to farms with multiple owners, to farms held by large corporations. Each type of farm has different payment requirements. MPS can accommodate any type of Producer and any type of Base Pay, Premium, and Hauling Charge requirements.
From the smallest to the largest of farms, the quantity and quality of milk produced depend on many factors: the breed of cow, its age, its feed, and its care. All play a role in a farm’s output. Regardless of the quality and total quantity of milk produced on a farm, the procurement process remains virtually the same. MPS follows the entire process. |

The Commodity Procurement System (CPS) Portal provides secure web-based services to clients of the system. Integrated with Biwer’s flagship “CPS”, the portal acts as an access point for the information and business logic configured within the application. This provides users, other applications, or other businesses access to authorized, real-time data, and enabling a wide range of workflow related interaction. Typically, CPS enables the procurement workflow - managing growers, harvest receipts, value calculations for payment, etc… Because CPS is the system of record for this data, it has become increasingly critical to share information along the supply chain, requiring a service oriented approach to application interaction. The CPS Portal provides that access point for authorized users. While the Portal is integrated with CPS, it can also share information from other systems. Built over a Tomcat Application Server, the portal can access any JDBC enabled database as a data-source. Let’s say that inventory information exists in one application, order information in another, and grower estimates in CPS. The portal can be used as a dashboard to bring together these three points of data.
