What Digital Transformation Means For The Food & Beverage Industry

Posted by Harriet Schneider on Aug 25, 2017 8:00:00 AM

by Mike Edgett, Director of Industry Marketing for Process Manufacturing, Infor

System-wide modernization has been a long-term priority for many food and beverage (F&B) companies, but is often stalled waiting for funds. Several investment options compete for those hard-earned dollars. The continual need to develop new products to meet consumer demand often make research and development (R&D) spending the priority. What does that leave for software investment?

Now, as digital technology and disruptive innovations like the Internet of Things sweep across every business landscape, transforming the way we do business, the need for modernization is moving up in priority. Food manufacturers, however, may be overwhelmed and uncertain of where to start.

As customer behaviors and needs change, the F&B industry must have the flexibility to adjust business practices in order to meet those changes. Organizations need to embrace innovative technologies that help optimize daily operations and hone profit margins. It’s not just about offering the lowest prices. Now, to succeed, there must be customer alignment.

Here are seven ways to start building this differentiation through digital transformation, and the technologies that will help make these goals a reality.

What Is World Class Manufacturing And How Do You Measure It?

Posted by Harriet Schneider on Jul 17, 2017 10:49:19 PM

Larry Fast, founder and president of Pathways to Manufacturing Excellence. 

Question: 

"What is World Class Manufacturing and How Do You Measure It?

Answer:

Now THAT’s a great question! I am unaware of a specific measurement that is universally available for use. If any of our readers are aware of such a measurement(s), then please comment. I can only share how I’ve thought about it and what I’ve used over the years with my operations and my clients.

My definition of World Class: “When a U.S. company and its factories are competitive in global markets they wish to serve.” As I’ve said before, U.S. manufacturing leadership can gripe about the playing field not being level while they watch foreign manufacturers continue to eat into their market share in this country. The ultimate outcome will range from a shrinking market share in the U.S. and/or one day going out of business; OR, the alternative—we must become good enough to compete. That’s World Class.
