Available to Sell Software
Originally developed by SI to solve the mystery of the “carcase balance” within red meat processing, our Plan to Produce and Available to Sell modules allow food processors to plan months ahead, whilst reacting in real-time to changing customer demands, raw material availability and key commercial challenges.
These food manufacturing solutions have been designed with the most complex multi-site, vertically integrated meat businesses in mind; incorporating kill, bone, retail pack and value-added product operations.
Available to Sell shows a real-time view of stock levels, based on raw material and orders received. The moment your production plan changes or a new order is received, Available to Sell is automatically updated.
Food stock, raw material and orders – all in real-time
For food processors, reactive rather than proactive planning is the norm. As customers’ requirements are constantly changing, invariably, the retail forecast doesn’t match the order reality. This means that no two days present the same end requirement for production. That’s why SI developed Available to Sell.
Available to Sell shows a real-time view of stock levels, based on raw material and orders received. The moment your production plan changes or a new order is received, Available to Sell is automatically updated.
