The Challenge!   

• Complex data - Company does not have an official data storage system and uses Excel for operations. This leads to data inconsistencies and a lot of errors. 

• Issue with Inventory Expiry Control - Because Excel is used, employees sometimes record product expiration dates incorrectly and duplicate entries, causing confusion. This leads to problems with inventory control quite frequently. 

• Time-consuming for Cost Calculations - Manual work requires employees to spend time calculating costs because they have to search for and cross-check documents, as well as manually perform various calculations each month. This results in employees losing time and working overtime on a regular basis. 

• No Raw Material Planning System - This results is effect with quality of production for each recipe. The company produces multiple pet food recipes, each requiring a variety of raw materials. No systematic approach to work leads to inaccuracies in raw material preparation, which may be due to employees failing to verify the accuracy of both the type and quantity of raw materials, among other factors. 

• Various Types of Packaging - Due to the multiple packaging types, the quantity of each type of packaging is not consistent. Employees have to verify the quantity and recipe accuracy according to the labels on the packaging, leading to occasional errors due to employees not thoroughly checking. 

• Quality Control of Suppliers - The company deals with a large number of raw materials and uses multiple suppliers for sourcing. This necessitates a detailed quality check of supplier information, including quantity, price, and other details for each shipment.
