Many growing food and beverage operations struggle with an ongoing state of thrash. As demand fluctuates, operations are required to either run expensive overtime or short customers in one period only later to be faced with decreased demand and aging inventory on the shelves, or even worse, on trailers or temporary, without a plan.

These fluctuations and uncertainty strain cash and cash flow. On-time shipment metrics are met with superhuman effort. New product introductions aren’t properly planned with an initial push to fill pipeline followed by uncertainty on the scale-up.  You may have a large number of products and struggle with how to project aggregated production demand, inventory levels, and financing needs. Executive accountability to plans may be lacking.

If this sounds like your company you are probably lacking sound sales and operations planning processes and supply chain management systems.  Our food and beverage supply chain consulting group has teamed up with Outperform to deliver a straight forward solution to solve your planning problems.

Outperform’s SOP planning tools solve a different problem at a different level than ERP.
