Today, businesses have transformed to be completely customer-centric, prioritizing customer needs and tailoring products to meet evolving market demands. Talking specifically about bakeries, bakers have reinvented their production methods. They have eliminated the way they used to manufacture bakery items 10 years before.
This is largely due to the fact that consumers have started choosing health-conscious options such as gluten-free, high protein, low on sugar, etc. This shift in consumer behavior has driven bakery manufacturers to adopt more flexible and responsive manufacturing practices. Incorporating these customizations quickly yet efficiently into the manufacturing process demands the system to be technologically efficient and adaptable enough.
Moreover, amid these evolving demands, consistency, freshness and quality remain non-negotiable, and achieving them requires frequent formula adjustments and the flexibility to substitute ingredients when necessary.These challenges make it clear why a sector-specific software solution is crucial that supports the complexities of modern bakery manufacturing.
Perfect recipes lead to a successful bakery manufacturing business. Facilitating this complex move of ensuring consistency in formulation, bakery manufacturing ERP software allows bakers to accurately manage ingredient quantities, substitute with speciality ingredient and adjust recipes based on batch size. This level of convenience in fine-tuning formula specifications as per the requirement helps ensure consistency and quality across batches.
Bakery manufacturing may involve materials with allergen concerns such as wheat, milk, eggs, or nuts. The industry-specific ERP for bakery manufacturing immediately flags these ingredients and helps apply proper labels. Moreover, it also facilitates the segregation of allergens in receipt, inventory, picking, and production to reduce the possibilities of cross-contamination.
Bakery manufacturing requires a variety of materials on hand, each needs to be maintained at different stock levels in different units along with other important data such as origin, perishability, and expiry dates. However, bakery manufacturing software helps bakers maintain inventory in the units of weight, volume and each in the warehouse, establish their potency, classify them on different grounds and even allows them to zoom in down to individual item levels.
What is most concerning about bakery manufacturers is that they work with perishable ingredients. So, ensuring that they’re used before their expiry is critical for reducing waste and minimizing losses. Facilitating this, bakery manufacturing software automatically deploys alerts when any of the materials or finished goods are approaching their expiry dates.
ERP software for bakery manufacturing provides manufacturers with the insights they need to align supply with demand by expediting orders and even alerts if the ongoing production plans might cause shortage or surplus.
