Canned food

Production of canned food

As a rule the canning industry, as a rule, has high standards for managing stocks, production processes and the finished product, which leads to precise management of used batches and monitoring of their expiration date. Most often the companies in the canning industry are characterized by:

  • Inventory management and traceability of the finished product by batch;
  • A large number of finished products from one batch;
  • A significant number of employees involved in the production process, so it is necessary to know each employee in which production operation he participated;
  • The number of operations/stages of production is large.
  • Canned food

    Starting point

    Based on these positions, it is clear that use of business system which can administer, control and inform about production processes for all important parameters. Over the years, the team of ERP Agency has successfully implemented several projects in metal processing companies and gained excellent experience and recommendations in the industry.

    Administration of processes for canned food

    The administration of the production process must allow:

  • Planning of resources (machines and employees);
  • Tracking of materials by batch;
  • Planning of materials;
  • Optimization of the working time of the machines in connection with the production deadlines;
  • Written instructions (work orders) for employees, which determine resources, tools, materials, production operations, technological process and protective measures;
  • Standardization of operations and payment of bonuses for the achieved result;
  • Traceability of the finished product.
  • Business needs

    The process of control in the companies in the canning industry allows early detection of “bottlenecks” and lack of raw materials or determines the need to re-plan work orders according to production deadlines. The control also allows analysis/comparison between planned and actual production costs and thus calculation of actual production costs. The control process also enables employees to monitor compliance with the norms and thus be rewarded for the results achieved.

    System requirements for manufactures of canned food

    Business systems must provide quality information for all production processes as well. Timely and accessible information in canning industry companies is essential to meet the expectations of customers, employees and management.

    What did our team do in order to answer these requirements?

    The team of ERP Agency together with www.incom.mk has developed custom modules, used in canning companies. Modules increased the work and administration efficiency of production. Special emphasis should we placed on warehouse management. It satisfies the need with the Warehouse Management solution, which successfully manages micro-locations, variants, etc. and is used on PDAs fully integrated with the business system.

    Digitalization

    The digitalization of the production process is a step that must be taken by all production companies. Over the years, our team has worked on a number of digitalization projects in Bulgaria, Macedonia, Kosovo, Albania, Serbia, Slovenia and has helped many companies to improve their business processes. We would like to share this experience with you. Your business can be more profitable once you apply this experience.
