under Infinity.
A “module” is a term for a sub
package of services within a total
system. Under the Infinity system,
each of the 10 modules is designed
to stand alone in providing a range
of specific services, but the mod
ules are also connected through the
overall scope of Infinity system so
that information can be transferred
between modules as needed.

The DMS module, for example,
is a traditional, paper-based dairy
herd management service provid
ing the entire range of official and
unofficial records services for
dairy producers.
It has a lot of flexibility and
choices, and provides a full range
of printed reports for dairymen to
use in managing their milking and
dry cows, herds and young stock.
All reports and services are option
al at the producer’s discretion, giv
ing him control over the total cost
of the service.
The services are divided further
into five sections or packages, for
ease of promotion and choice
making, but not to limit choices.
Prices for the packages are dis
counted from the total cost of those
options selected individually.
The five sections consist of a
Basic Package Report for herd and
cow management; three Advanced
Reports (Levels I, II and III): and
an Optional Reports Services.
The Basic Package Report is

efficacy combine to save you time
and money.

The power of
Infinity comes from
the unique integra
tion of individual
service modules
which permit infor
amtion in one mod
ule to be shared with
other modules.
While some modules
rely on input of data
from other modules,
the overall design
allows a DHIA or
dairy producer to
select only those
modules needed.

DMS, a systems

modules in Infinity
includes:
