Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A data management system and method for raw material (22), the system including a network adapted to permit data transfer between a manufacturer (43) and a supplier (20), wherein the manufacturer (43) produces a product (44), and wherein the supplier supplies a raw material (22), the raw materia l having a raw material code and raw material property data; a database of raw material specifications in communication with the network, wherein the specifications are searchable by the raw material code; and a database of ra w material property data connected to the network, wherein the database includ es raw material property data from the supplier, and wherein the raw material property data are searchable by the raw material code. The system and method also include a data entry system connected to the network, wherein the data entry system is adapted to permit the supplier to transmit raw material property data to the manufacturer via the network (26); a generator connecte d to the network adapted to produce a comparison of the transmitted raw materi al property data with the corresponding raw material specification from the raw material specifications database; and a signal generator connected to the generator and adapted to receivethe comparison and generate a compliance signal indicating whetherthe raw material is compliant with the correspondin g raw material specification in response to the comparison.
