Food and beverage industry solutions featuring Aptean ERP
Everybody eats, and the food and beverage industry is a mainstay of our economy. That’s why we offer a fully specialised ERP solution designed for the industry: Aptean Food & Beverage ERP is built on the Microsoft Dynamics Business Central platform and is much more than ‘just’ an industry solution. It’s a strategic ERP platform that can grow and scale alongside your business. Coupled with Eagle360 Consulting’s extensive food and beverage industry experience, and our specialised expertise with Dynamics 365, it’s a powerful solution that can help improve your business’s operations, risk management, supply chain management customer service and more.
A full menu of capabilities
The food and beverage industry can be complex, with long supply chains, rigorous governance and provenance standards, and an unforgiving marketplace. No supplier or retailer wants to be caught out by products that don’t meet their requirements or their customers’ preferences.
Aptean helps you manage ever-changing consumer trends, new product developments, evolving regulations, traceability requirements, food safety management, transport risk management and more.
A generic ERP solution won’t get the job done. There are numerous customisations, plug-ins and add-ons for food businesses. Still, none offer a comprehensive solution that’s as dependable, capable and future-proof as Aptean.
Specialised features
As it’s been built specifically for the food & beverage industry, Aptean includes critical, industry-specific functions including:
- Bi-directional ingredient tracking and allergen management
- Expiration tracking for batch control and FEFO movements
- Lot tracing, ingredient-level tracking and product origin management
- Visibility into production activities through collaborative forecasting and planning scenarios
- Deep lot profitability features that show detailed costs for haulage, labour, machinery, duty, rework and more
- Supply chain management that supports a wide range of product variations, including breed, cut, age, variety, region of origin and packaging
