The Challenge
Milk came in from four collection centres twice a day and left the plant as curd, paneer and ghee.
- Batches were not tracked, so expired stock at outlets could not be traced back.
- Production cost was estimated once a year, leaving pricing to guesswork.
The Solution: BricX ERP
Milk intake, production runs and outlet dispatches became one batch trail:
- Milk collection by centre and shift, with fat and SNF captured on intake.
- Production runs consume milk and packaging and produce batches with expiry dates.
- Outlet stock is held by batch, so the oldest sells first and returns are traced.
Results
- Expiry write-offs down by a third in the first two quarters.
- Cost per litre and per kilo from actual consumption.
- Quality checks traced to a single collection shift.
