Current supply chain woes have made nearly every aspect of processing an ongoing guessing game, from forecasting ingredient availability to ensuring finished foods arrive at their destinations on time. One way to help make sense of the situation is to invest in track-and-trace (T&T) technology that can monitor every step of a product’s journey through a plant and beyond.
“Operating a food processing business today without T&T technology is like driving blind down a highway in the dark,” says Louis Columbus, principal at DELMIAWorks. “Any existing facility without track and traceability is at a competitive disadvantage, because the data-driven insights it provides are exceptional compared to operating without it.”
