挑战
Processing and delivering safe and quality shrimp to its customers is the core focus at Nekkanti. The processing plants produce thousands of tonnes of processed shrimp annually for export in various value-added forms. Naturally, there were numerous workflows associated with the overall food processing and support processes. The organization was facing several challenges with these processes, which included:\n\nPaper-Based Data Processing: At each stage of seafood processing, data was recorded using paper-based forms. The manual recording system led to errors and discrepancies for both data related to the material being processed and the workforce involved in the processing. This form of data recording also led to issues for HR, as the workforce was divided across locations, type, efforts, shift process, etc. They had to depend on the paper-based effort tracker followed by the supervisor, which was quite tedious and time-taking.\n\nInformation Silos Proliferation: As the discrepancies and errors happened across various processing stages, it became challenging to pinpoint the root cause of the issue. During reconciliation, the company found discrepancies when comparing the raw material to the end product. Due to the silos, there was no single source of truth, and rectifying discrepancies became very difficult.\n\nIssues in Performance Measurement: Due to the obliteration of accurate and effective data, it was becoming quite challenging to manage resources effectively and measure the performance of the workforce involved and the various stages involved in the process. Even for quality control, the company had to rely on paper-based data for different processing stages such as grading, soaking, and freezing.

解决方案
Nekkanti identified and set up a core team of citizen developers composed of business users across the departments and trained them on the Quixy platform. The central IT team put together the necessary governance and monitoring structure to ensure that processes automated across different departments seamlessly integrated without any possibility for information silos and data redundancy. Business unit heads took over the ownership and accountability for the digitization efforts within their groups.\n\nThe core team established selection criteria for the high-impact processes to be automated and identified these processes for the first implementation phase. These included Inward Entry, Daily Quantity Reconciliation, Shift Output Reports, Facilitators Commission Processing, Payment Processing to name a few.\n\nAll the selected processes were automated and rolled out for the first processing center within six weeks, including requirements, design, implementation, and testing. The deployment for the remaining centers was thereafter completed within one week. Through this automation, key paper-based processes were eliminated.
