Process Manufacturing

The fast pace of the food industry requires information at a moments’ notice and also a stable, dependable environment.  Food products generally have a shelf life so tracking the age of product and also the traceability is of the utmost importance.   The FDA regulations warrant this traceability.   Margins are generally small and customers of food manufacturers are generally large national distribution companies or at least regionally known.

Manufacturers in food require formula management or batch tickets instead of BOMs or work orders.  By combining the needs of formula based manufacturers with the needs of traditional discrete manufacturers Horizons International has developed a suite of manufacturing software tools it calls Mixed Mode Manufacturing. Together we can take your basic formula based production process, with yields, lot control and scalability, marry them with discrete processes and then provide your organization with the unique tools you need to plan production in batches or lots and still track output down to a unique packaged product that goes out the door to your customer. Cost control, lot control, perpetual inventory management, MRP and capacity planning with shop floor reporting can all be provided by the Horizon’s Manufacturing Suite with Microsoft Dynamics GP.
