Meat producers
Optimized supply planning, accurate demand forecasting
Meat processors face short order cycles, long supply lead times, seasonal variation and must maximize the yield of every animal while delivering the freshest products. Sharing data to align capacity, resources, and inventory with the sales plan requires visibility across the supply chain.
Address your biggest meat processing challenges
With long supply lead times and a lack of visibility throughout their supply chain, meat processing companies must determine how to best satisfy customer demand and maximize profit while also moving fresh products through the supply chain. Capturing fluctuating demand is important when collaborating with vendors and understanding how their promotions will impact supply and demand.
Need for accurate demand planning
Meat processors need to create day-to-day forecasts that accurately reflect business constraints. Failure to plan accurately risks losing sales due to poor product availability and incorrectly anticipated demand.
Outdated and siloed production planning
Outdated and disconnected manual planning processes in the purchasing, production, and distribution teams create constant gaps between planning and execution, resulting in less-than-optimal business outcomes.
Carcass balancing and yield
Carcass balancing is about matching demand with supply and making decisions regarding yield: which cuts to use, what can be downgraded, and which cut plans, out of thousands available, will deliver optimal profit and customer service. For purely fresh producers, minimizing what is frozen is key.
Balance supply with demand
Meat processors need to balance the supply of raw materials with demand that can change due to seasonal variations, promotions, and consumer preferences.
