SAS 70 is important for all processes, electronic and manual, that may be outsourced to third party companies or may be maintained by third party software. This report provides the company as well as the third parties with a report that provides information on the internal controls that are in place and their effectiveness within both businesses.

This is why a bar code system with scanners would improve the company’s input and output as far as inventory goes. Companies such as Zebra Technologies and IntelliTrack, Inc. provides for a seamless integration between ERP and inventory control, by incorporating information from the enterprise systems into a bar code and radio frequency identification (RFID) systems ("About Zebra Technologies", 2012).
