National Dairy Farm Assured Scheme
Derek Kennedy, Executive Officer
"SmartData developed the software and database for managing the NDFAS farm assessments. With
the scheme covering the majority of UK dairy farmers, and with the involvement of milk purchasers,
assessors and certification bodies in the process, it was essential that the data-base fulfilled
the recording and reporting needs of all concerned in a straight-forward and ro-bust manner.
SmartData took the time to understand our full range of requirements and have delivered a database
that should ensure the on-going effective and efficient operation of our scheme."

Safety Net Services
John Walsh, Director
"SmartData were commissioned to develop software (NetLog) that would monitor a fleet of safety nets and hire items,
not just booking in and out but also control of a rigorous maintenance regime and produce
detailed reporting. The system is a success and through a process of continued development
is capable of many more functions than we ever imagined at the outset. We have been guided
very professionally by SmartData to a position where we have marketed the software within our
industry - to our competitors!"

Service tracking systems."

Innovis Ltd.
Dewi Jones, Director
"SmartData have provided Innovis with software that makes complex procedures a simple operation on a keyboard. Their software has enabled us to provide an exceptional Scrapie Genotyping service to the whole of the UK Sheep Industry. The software allows us to track individual samples throughout the genotyping process; a process that in some instances starts in the most remote hill farms, following through to the high tech laboratories at Abingdon. The software also allows one office administrator to manage application forms, kit dispatch, and submission entry with barcode technology through to tracking samples and report writing. The power of the database is phenomenal!
The success of the Scrapie database meant that we also asked SmartData to develop software to manage a new Parasitology service. Once again, the most complex of procedures is simplified thanks to the SmartData solution.
We have proven that the software developed by SmartData has saved us time and money, but more
importantly, allows us to provide accuracy and detail that were never before possible."
