Catch Weight

The challenge

Working with variable-weight products forces you to sell by the unit but price by weight. Calculating this “catch weight” may be confusing, yet it’s crucial for maximizing your margin and ensuring accurate cost-of-goods-sold (COGS) calculations.

The solution

Capture the catch weight of your products on an item-level, track the values end-to-end throughout your supply chain and fully automate catch weight calculations without any manual intervention; plus, you can establish acceptable variability thresholds.

Traceability

The challenge

How do you comply with ever-changing food safety regulations, pass mock traceability audits for larger retailers and ensure overall food safety without forfeiting efficiency?

The solution

Quality Control

The challenge

Without the right tools to help you control processes, it can seem impossible to adhere to strict regulations, package requirements and food safety standards.

The solution

Set up mandatory quality audits and scoresheets at every step of the production cycle—and take the guesswork out of product consistency, integrity and safety.

Plant Maintenance

Downtime. Unexpected maintenance. Underutilization. Without the right monitoring tools, your assets can cause you a variety of headaches.

The solution

Contract Manufacturing

The challenge

Demand exceeds what you can produce; engaging a contract manufacturer becomes more attractive. You worry that your product quality will suffer; tracking your products becomes more challenging.

The solution

Our ERP system allows you to continue tracking and tracing your full supply chain end-to-end – even when using a contract manufacturer. Enact inspection statuses when you receive product back and even access key operational metrics across 500+ KPIs.

Product Pricing

The challenge

Many generic ERP solutions are limiting in their ability to accommodate pricing scenarios typically found in the food and beverage industry. And, if they can, they often need lots of workarounds, modules and add-ons just to get the basics done correctly.

The solution

Implement hierarchal pricing, use both percentage-based and dollar amount discounting schemes, differentiate discount setups by sell-to customer and ship-to address, and even use shipment date or requested/promised delivery date for price calculations.
