We offer the ideal solutions to digitalize the Food and Beverage industry's Supply Chain. And we can prove it.

Ensuring efficiency in a scenario of diversification.

The Food and Beverage industry is undergoing a transformation in which there is pressure to reduce costs while seeking diversification through mass-customization actions, which makes supply chain planning more complex.

Companies served in this sector:

Challenges in this industry:

Demand Variation

High sensitivity to demand-forecast errors and demand profiles that are hard to predict across periods.

Resource Leveling

Complexity in dealing with line allocation alternatives, considering cleaning, setups and labor.

Inventory Balancing

Difficulty planning coverage while evaluating inventory policies, capacity, costs, deadlines and perishability.

Synchronization Between Processes

Complex dynamics to synchronize manufacturing steps with filling and packaging.

What to expect from our projects:

Inventory Reduction

With more balanced planning and scheduling, inventory health improves, reducing finished-goods inventory and synchronizing raw-material purchases. The solution's agility also allows reacting quickly to demand changes to avoid unnecessary inventory and losses from perishability.

Productivity Increase

The scheduling rules will group similar items of the same flavor or allergenic characteristic, reducing setup times that don't add value. Better synchronization enables a reduction of wait times, generating more value directly to the product and making better use of the company's assets.

Stockout Reduction

Visibility, scheduling agility and greater plan accuracy make it possible to reduce delays and stockouts, since they are identified in advance, allowing simulations to take preventive actions and eliminate them — all with scenarios that ensure availability without harming service.

More Agility

Harder than planning is replanning. A machine breakdown, rework on a component or a change in an item's demand can trigger a cascading effect to reschedule the whole factory. Responding to that reality quickly and with a good plan lets PPCP work be more analytical and decisive, rather than operational.
