Aquascot selects SI for digital transformation partnership
Aquascot, one of the UK’s major seafood processors, has selected leading food ERP & MES software provider SI (Systems Integration) to streamline its processes for its new digital transformation project.
Speaking about its vision and why it chose SI, Finance Director Simon Wrench said:
“As our legacy system had been in place for the past two decades, we were keen to move to a manufacturing execution system that could streamline our processes, drive operational efficiencies and enable us to make real-time data-driven decisions. It’s all about empowering our business through data transparency; that was our remit.”
“With the help of our solutions consultancy, FluidIT, we reviewed several providers of food manufacturing software. SI’s sector expertise and modular food software stood out as the best fit for our operational processes.”
As Nigel Cappleman, Business Development manager at SI explained:
“Once the system is fully implemented, it will provide Aquascot with live visibility of stock throughout both factories, at multiple WIP stages, live visibility for production on plan vs actual, yield and mass balance reporting with bi-directional traceability, using real-time data and dashboard technology.”
Finally Simon explained:
“With SI as our digital transformation partner, Aquascot will be more resilient and be able to optimise our production efficiencies.”
“As a finance director, what really appealed to me about the SI System is the real-time standard costing information, and the opportunity to reveal any hidden costs within our production processes. SI’s real-time data transparency, will not only highlight any occasions when we’re not meeting our production standards or when we are out of range of the tolerance levels, but it can also help to maximise our sales opportunities.” – Aquascot – finance director Simon Wrench
