挑战
Diversified Foods and Seasonings had been using Sage PFW for many years to manage formulas, costs, and inventory within their ERP solution. However, when Sage announced their plans to retire PFW, Diversified began to review replacement ERP solutions. They evaluated nearly 15 ERP systems during their review period and selected BatchMaster Mfg. because it could fill every need they had. They were looking for a solution that was designed for formula-based food manufacturing companies and had specific functions such as Quality Control and Assurance, a Formula Approval process, and MRP/MPS integrated functionality.
关于客户
Diversified Foods and Seasonings, LLC is a company that began nearly 40 years ago in Louisiana. They started by preparing a patented chicken seasoning mix for one small restaurant, which would grow into Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen and become a nationwide and worldwide success. Diversified Foods and Seasonings continues to manufacture and supply seasonings to Popeyes restaurants and has added other products and contract services for its clients. The company operates three manufacturing plants located in Louisiana, Nebraska, and Alabama, and operates 24/7 to meet their product demand. In addition to manufacturing seasonings for Popeyes and its own Chefs Creations label, the company offers product development and production services to customers for a variety of food establishments including casual dining, retail, club stores, quick service and more.
解决方案
Diversified Foods and Seasonings selected BatchMaster Mfg. as their new ERP solution. The transition to the new system was smooth due to similar main functions and the staff started seeing new benefits with BatchMaster Mfg. right away. The system provided quality control tests and results fully integrated with production formulas and with lot tracked inventory items. It also provided a Formula Approval process that assures that only approved formulas are used in production. In addition, BatchMaster Mfg. offered MRP/MPS integrated functionality, which Diversified started implementing and saw how using MRP reporting along with integrated order scheduling can drastically reduce various manual processes.

HEINEKEN Uses the Cloud to Reach 10.5 Million Consumers
For 2012 campaign, the Bond promotion, it planned to launch the campaign at the same time everywhere on the planet. That created unprecedented challenges for HEINEKEN—nowhere more so than in its technology operation. The primary digital content for the campaign was a 100-megabyte movie that had to play flawlessly for millions of viewers worldwide. After all, Bond never fails. No one was going to tolerate a technology failure that might bruise his brand.Previously, HEINEKEN had supported digital media at its outsourced datacenter. But that datacenter lacked the computing resources HEINEKEN needed, and building them—especially to support peak traffic that would total millions of simultaneous hits—would have been both time-consuming and expensive. Nor would it have provided the geographic reach that HEINEKEN needed to minimize latency worldwide.

Temperature Monitoring for Restaurant Food Storage
When it came to implementing a solution, Mr. Nesbitt had an idea of what functionality that he wanted. Although not mandated by Health Canada, Mr. Nesbitt wanted to ensure quality control issues met the highest possible standards as part of his commitment to top-of-class food services. This wish list included an easy-to use temperature-monitoring system that could provide a visible display of the temperatures of all of his refrigerators and freezers, including historical information so that he could review the performance of his equipment. It also had to provide alert notification (but email alerts and SMS text message alerts) to alert key staff in the event that a cooling system was exceeding pre-set warning limits.
