Reporting for agriculture and the food industry
Your year reads in seasons rather than in months, your raw material varies from one batch to the next, and traceability goes back to the field. A model that holds those three particularities finally gives comparisons that mean something.

Where the figures come from
The systems we connect in this sector
The ERP and production
Intake, raw material batches, recipes, production orders and packaging.
The farming side
Growers, fields, seasons, analyses at intake and volume commitment contracts.
Quality and traceability
Inspections, analyses, certifications, temperatures and batch records kept through to despatch.
Sales
Customers, own-label products, promotions, service level and logistics penalties.
What you follow
The indicators these companies really watch
These are the ones we find from one project to the next. Your list will differ at the edges, and refining it is the work of the scoping workshop.
Material yield
Raw material in against finished product out, by recipe and by season. It is the indicator that weighs most on margin, and the one most sensitive to the quality of the material.
Cost price by season
Material, energy, labour and packaging, set against standard. Comparing seasons is worth more than comparing months.
Quality at intake
Analysis results by grower and by field, crossed with the yield obtained afterwards. That crossing guides sourcing decisions.
Batch traceability
From a despatched pallet back to its material batches and its fields, and the other way round. The response time becomes an argument with customers and auditors.
Service level and penalties
Deliveries complete and on time by retailer, with the cost of the gaps. In grocery retail, that figure weighs as much as price.
Losses and recovery
Production variances, by-products recovered and unsold stock, with where each goes. A loss routed to a recovery channel stops being a loss.
What calls for care
The points where these projects are decided
They come back almost every time in this sector. Knowing them in advance changes how the project is run, and the order in which things are done.
