Many types of businesses find it difficult to stay competitive in their industry. A lot of this has to do with not having the right management tools in place to achieve better operational efficiencies. The more efficient a company is, the less money they have tied up in their processes and the more money they have to spend on things that generate revenue, like marketing campaigns.
What process manufacturers need is a software program that uses a single database to manage their company data: formulas, recipes, batch production, lot control, etc. Older methods using multiple Excel spreadsheets lack that single, integrated database structure.
The goal of enterprise resource planning, or ERP, systems is to manage those process situations by monitoring all facets of the manufacturing cycle, giving you more accurate data across the entire organization. ERP systems will also save your organization time, as important data will be easier to find and will result in faster, more efficient operations.
If there are recalls, the software conducts forward and reverse traceability for raw materials, ingredients, and the end product as well as for lot tracking, supply chain histories, producers, subs, and processors.
