With new manufacturing technology, the food and beverage industry can produce more product in less time, but how will they keep track of their supply chain and organize inventory? Producing multiple products and delivering to many consumers takes time and money and is difficult to maintain. There are many product lines and manufacturing processes within the food and beverage industry, therefore making it difficult for manufacturers to keep up with their supply chain. Rules and regulations require manufacturers to maintain safety and environmental precautions while still keeping customers satisfied. With QAD Cloud ERP, manufacturers meet customer requirements while managing product lines and regulating supply chain. Read more for three ways QAD Cloud ERP benefits the food and beverage manufacturing industry.
1. Safety Standards
With many food safety and quality issues today, food manufactures need to consider multiple factors during the manufacturing process in order to keep customers and themselves safe. Food borne illnesses (like salmonella, for example), can affect thousands of consumers so it is important for manufacturers to correctly maintain quality checks and inspections. QAD Cloud ERP has QAD Quality Management System (QAD QMS), which allows manufacturers to meet quality system requirements. QAD also allows features for Track, Trace, and Recall helping organizations track and manage items throughout the manufacturing process and maintain sanitary work environments.
2. Meet Customer Demands
A very important aspect of food and beverage manufacturing is making sure that consumers are satisfied with the product as well as the planning and fulfillment. The QAD Demand Planning feature uses customer data to inform manufacturers of consumer buying patterns and helps manufacturers to prepare for production and distribution. With QAD cloud ERP, manufacturing companies can also make inventory and data available at any time via the cloud.
3. Extended Mobility and Security
With over 33,000 QAD Cloud users, QAD Cloud ERP has an incredible amount of benefits for the food and beverage manufacturing industry. Our ever-changing technological world is hard to keep with, but with QAD cloud ERP, it is easy to respond to change and implement features over time. Another helpful tool within QAD Cloud ERP is that QAD offers 24/7 support for users in all major languages. QAD Cloud ERP also provides security for manufacturing organizations. Administrators can see all accounts and manage users to view service levels and support logs.
