Digital Transformation
Discover how a new generation of ERP can help respond to accelerating change and deliver customer experience at scale.
To address a multitude of challenges ranging from waste reduction to compliance acceleration, companies in the FOOD & BEVERAGE INDUSTRY are strategically focusing on cost, growth and operational performance as their top 3 business priorities. These business priorities are driving IT investments and digital transformation initiatives. Top challenges for food and beverage manufacturers:
- Minimize waste.
- Minimize risks.
- Reduce costs.
- Accelerate compliance.
- Adapt quickly to the market.
Hampered by their ERP heritage
How can food and beverage manufacturers successfully compete in the digital economy?
In the past, food and beverage manufacturers have invested in outdated legacy systems, highly customized applications and "financial" ERP, creating a technical debt that is a nightmare to solve. This archaic ERP heritage, coupled with the continued use of spreadsheets, is what is preventing companies from moving forward in their digital transformation journeys, and is one of the key challenges they need to solve.
The top 3 ERP weaknesses manifested by the food and beverage industry are:
- The system is transactional and does not provide real-time information.
- Does not include industry-specific functions immediately
- It is too complex to customize it to suit your specific needs.
ERP chaos causes lack of information accessibility
What prevents company leaders from achieving their goal: to offer safe products at a lower cost.
There are many elements, actions, dates and compliance issues to follow when managing food and beverage products. The industry is consuming more information than ever before, but is not necessarily using it to its advantage. Being able to access data in real time and intelligently apply it in the context of business processes will dramatically improve the value delivered to customers, offering safe products at lower cost. This is only possible with the right ERP solution.
A new generation of ERP is here to help
Food and beverage manufacturers must stop investing in outdated legacy ERP solutions and instead start looking for more robust, innovative, responsive and intelligent ERP systems.
This new generation of intelligent ERP is the future of the commercial enterprise.
Intelligence comes from more information/data, in context learnings, and the application of the knowledge gained to deliver better business outcomes.
