Introduction Mid-sized food and beverage companies often find themselves at a crossroads when their legacy systems no longer support their evolving needs. Balancing industry-specific requirements with the limitations of outdated software can hinder growth, reduce efficiency, and increase compliance risk.
This case study explores how a mid-sized food and beverage company successfully transitioned from a legacy ERP to a modern, cloud-based ERP solution—overcoming operational bottlenecks and setting the stage for scalable, data-driven growth.
The Challenge The company was operating on a heavily customized, legacy ERP system that no longer aligned with its business needs. Over time, customizations had made it difficult to upgrade, maintain, or adapt to evolving industry standards. Critical issues included:
Manual processes in batch manufacturing, recipe management, and raw material tracking Lack of real-time visibility into inventory, production, and distribution Inefficient order processing and packaging workflows Compliance gaps due to limited traceability features Data silos, making reporting and decision-making slow and unreliable These issues were beginning to affect customer satisfaction, increase operational costs, and limit the company’s ability to scale effectively.
