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 technology that can monitor every step of a product’s journey.
While we hope the COVID-19 pandemic is fading into the background, we still need to be concerned with labor shortages, transportation interruptions, political issues, weather extremes, and other peripheral circumstances that can still break critical links in the supply chain.
We hear a lot (really, constantly) about the supply chain and the many causes for it faltering the past year: shortage of labor to move goods—especially truck drivers and dock workers—inconsistent ingredient supplies, record inflation for materials and on and on.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers numerous advantages to manufacturers, including synching machinery on a production line, solving supply chain issues, business forecasting, improving food safety standards and waste reduction, as well as yield and quality—all in real time.
Supply chain challenges are a constant source of stress for food and beverage processors, as disruptions can upend production schedules and plant operations.
There's been a lot of hype about Blockchain — in fact, it uses networking and distributed database technology with encryption, security and much more. But should you jump on the bandwagon now?
Industrial IoT technology gives food manufacturers and the food service industry real-time data to identify problems, reduce waste and prevent expensive, brand-damaging outbreaks and recalls.
Four founding alliance members are working with supply chain providers and regulators to develop the standards, solutions and partnerships to enable a broadbased food safety ecosystem in China.
ON DEMAND Tune into this Food Engineering Webinar to learn how other manufacturing businesses with <$250 million in annual revenue are setting priorities and managing their current realities.
On Demand The supply chain remains in flux for food processors, but many of the logistics challenges are out of their control. However, technology exists to help processors make sense of existing data to forecast and manage ingredient availability, product production schedules, shipment and delivery of finished foods, catch bad batches and mitigate recalls, and make proactive decisions to move their business forward, and not be reactive based on changing supply chain conditions.
