Cost Modelling and Line Management
Fish market rate prices are subject to extreme volatility and can change by £1-2 per kg each day. SI’s cost modelling software takes account of the current price for landed fish by species, fish processing stages, and calculates the price for finished products and retail pack.
Using our cost modelling software, calculations are set up for the entire value of the fish against the production output. For example, the price of a whole salmon against its filleted output and the individual product codes.
These detailed product codes measure the differences in yield and cut, including:
- Skin on (when the yield will be better)
- Skin off
- Square cut
- Trim
For specialist processes, such as smoked salmon, the trays of fillets are issued to a smoking process. Afterwards, the fillets are weighed and booked as a smoked product.
Managing product substitution
Another option available is within our cost modelling software is product substitution management, where the differences in yields and giveaway will be measured for fixed weight.

Materials requirements planning (MRP) software
Having the right stock available at all times is vital to the success of any food producer. Too much can lead to downgrades and waste, too little to shorting orders and unhappy customers. And within the food factory, efficient planning to ensure the most effective use of the supply network is crucial to maximise customer satisfaction. SI's MRP (Materials Requirements Planning)provides an effective and efficient solution.
SI's MRP (materials requirements planning) system - Stock and Order - takes a stock snapshot across all stocked product. Based on actual purchase orders and by using sales forecasts, BOM and yield conversions, it will display stock shortfalls and flag when product needs to be ordered. It also highlights when food manufacturers are holding too much stock or when stock is at risk of going out of date.
With SI Stock and Order, you can take a lean manufacturing approach to food production, ensuring cash is not tied into stock or paying for additional storage.
Our material requirements planning (MRP) system provides food manufacturers with a real-time view to manage raw materials, work in progress (WIP) and packaging, and for all product types.
By delivering forward reporting ahead of time SI's Stock and Order also supports better relationships with suppliers for re-ordering and insights into stock consumption by product. By highlighting trends for both fast and slow-moving product categories, it also supports better planning and sales opportunities.
The application will show product shortfalls and will indicate to the planner when more raw material needs to be moved from one location to another or ordered to fulfil stock demand taking in to account transit/supplier lead times.
The MRP system then enables planners to send draft POs to SI's Purchase Order Processing application for approval. And if Stock and Order highlights that too much raw material stock for a specific product code, this will also be highlighted, enabling food manufacturers to react ahead of time to rectify the issue – i.e. promotions can be set up in SOP.

Carcase Stock Tracker software
Need a way to track every carcase, side and primal in real-time within your abattoir and cold storage? SI's Carcase Stock Tracker application provides the solution.
With Carcase Stock Tracker, forwards and backwards traceability is guaranteed, thanks to unique batch ID labelling applied to every forequarter, hindquarter and flank.
For every cut made, SI's Carcase Stock Tracker Application:
- Uniquely records individual weights by carcase and for every primal.
- Controls all spec ID details and labelling credentials.
- Captures data for all separate pieces as they are booked.
- Identifies what’s left to sell.
- Recalculates the weight.
- Accounts for every action taken
- Delivers real-time chiller location visibility, pinpointing locations of all carcases or sides.
- Provides the stock balance and automatically rebooks the original product.
- Maintains exemplary traceability across chillers, including weights, ages and by specifications.
“Nothing is more complex, trace-wise, than accounting for everything that’s derived from a beef carcass when it’s butchered. At Farmison & Co, we label every individual primal. When you walk into our fridges, every single piece of meat – whether it’s packed, primal or exposed – has a full SI label on it.
"It’s best practice, but not common practice within the meat industry."

Boning hall OCM software
As boning hall products reach the end of the production line, our OCM software and scales (Outer Case Markers) capture all weights and produce labels for boxed primals.
For some of our meat processing customers, we’ve also set up our boning hall OCMs to label bagged primals before products are packed into boxes, This means that when boxes are delivered at customer sites, operators only need to scan the box label to identify all the products. In this case, as the primals reach the end of the production line:
- Primals are wrapped in a bag;
- Each bag identified with a batch number label;
- Groups of bags are boxed and weighed on an OCM scale, against the precise production batch, tracing back to the original carcase.
- Trim and fat is also boxed up, separately weighed and booked out.

Boning hall yield and trim management software
Based on the way the primal is expected to be cut, within our boning hall planning software, the relationship between forecasted and actual boning hall yields can be tracked.
All boning halls have yield applications, but few of these applications can reveal what trim has been created and compare against what should have been produced. Our boning hall yield and trim management software precisely shows what was produced, planned and what should have been produced.
With SI’s unique boning hall yield and trim software, boning hall managers can:
- Measure against the plan;
- Identify when problems are occurring, such as excessive trim generation;
- Calculate what trim will be produced by specification;
- Compare what was planned against the actual trim output.
- Review any deviations from the planned production in real-time.
