Meat, poultry, and fish processing businesses will benefit from increased operational efficiency and data management thanks to a software cooperation between Marel and Infor, which will further the sector’s digital transformation.
As a leader in food processing MES solutions, Marel Software says its system addresses today’s industry challenges while simplifying the complex world of food processing for customers and technology partners.
The accelerating digitalisation of the food industry offers unprecedented advantages in sustainability, waste reduction and improved food safety. However, this digital transformation also presents new challenges, particularly in system integration.
Marel notes that its MES solutions excel at monitoring, controlling and optimising production; they are a vital bridge between the factory floor and enterprise level systems. ERP platforms integrate MES with other core business processes such as finance and sales to provide a broader, company-wide perspective that enables more informed decision-making.
Through this new partnership, Marel MES and Infor CloudSuite Food & Beverage ERP will facilitate enhanced API integration, delivering significant advantages to processors including:
- Streamlined system implementation with shorter deployment timelines
- Enhanced end-to-end traceability
- Improved real-time visibility into production status and product inventory
- Lower implementation costs and minimised operational risks
