Food industry: Innovation becomes the first driver of success

The food market is the foremost French industrial sector with a turnover of 213 billion euro in 2017 (Source: INSEE [French national institute of statistics and economic studies]). Unfortunately, mass distribution is pushing down market margins and holding back investment and innovation. As proof, 32% fewer new products were introduced in 2018 compared to 2017. Added to that, with constantly changing production costs and recent political instability, companies in the sector face many constraints and, indeed, must reconsider their strategy.

Digital technology offers new opportunities to
create value for the business. It gives it the means not only to optimize its operations but also to reinvent itself via different positioning on the value creation chain.

Secure your production cycles

The redesign and automation of your processes will naturally encourage innovation. Your teams will quickly become more agile and prove the quality of the production, transport, and even products via the Iterop platform. Planning, identifying sticking points, and improvement become a breeze with the many analysis tools at your disposal, and no matter where your plants are located, Iterop is accessible worldwide 24 hours a day.

Streamline the costs related to innovation

Nowadays, an information system is made up of many applications, sometimes more than a hundred, and the costs add up as new features are added. With process formalization, your teams can identify the resources that are critical to the success of the business: people, data, and applications. Using Iterop generally favors the abandonment of old, unagile, or overly complex tools and offers a near-immediate ROI.

Merger/acquisition operations: preserve your know-how

The acquisition or merger of several entities can be complex, particularly with regard to the sharing of knowledge and procedures, each with its own organization. The BPMN 2.0 universal standard allows all your employees to have a harmonious understanding of the processes. With Iterop, you now have a central tool that lets you quickly define, roll out and monitor new best practices.

Iterop for the food sector

One element to be preserved in the food sector is know-how. Iterop’s goal is to support your teams in the implementation of this know-how. Iterop users can run processes directly from devices, from an event, or from alerts.
