A Global Beverage Giant Eliminated 130,000+ Manual Label Replacements and Saved 10,000+ Hours Annually.

A global beverage conglomerate with over 200 brands was still relying on a 12-year-old manual process to manage raw material formula labels (BBN codes) at one of its canning factories. Any time a formula changed, over 130,000 labels had to be manually reprinted, forklifts had to cover more than 720 kilometres in the warehouse, and more than 10,000 working hours were consumed annually.

Joget’s partner, Valuprosys Technology built a QR Code Management System on Joget that replaced all physical labels with scannable digital codes linked to a live database. Formula updates that previously took up to a month now happen in seconds.

Challenges CHALLENGES

12 Years of Manual Labelling

  • The beverage canning factory needed to can beverages based on the beverage formula, which comprises various raw materials.

  • Beverage raw material suppliers needed to print and attach the relevant BBN code of the raw materials of the beverage formula, onto the inner and outer packaging.

  • In cases where adjustments were made to the beverage formula or new formulas were introduced, it became necessary to re-label the corresponding BBN codes of the raw materials.

  • All BBN code labels on unused raw material packaging needed to be replaced with new BBN code labels.

  • Each year, to replace the BBN code labels on raw material packaging, the original corresponding formula BBN codes need to be recompiled, reprinted, and all labels on unused raw material packaging and outer packaging need to be changed.

  • This process required a significant amount of manual labor and forklift operations.

Solutions SOLUTIONS

QR Code Formula Management

A BBN Formula Information QR Code Management System was built on Joget, setting up a backend database website with permission controls to maintain the BBN information corresponding to raw materials.

The system enabled the users to keep track of maintenance history with easier record keeping, while customizing QR code generation and downloading for raw materials’ corresponding BBN information, facilitating the QR code printing process. The QR codes can be scanned using laptops, tablets, or mobile phones across multiple platforms to retrieve all BBN formula information.

With this solution, the customer is now able to seamlessly import their raw materials codes from SAP into the newly developed system, in a standardized manner with less manual errors.

Results RESULTS

Formula Updates: From Months to Seconds

Savings of 130K+ label replacements

Savings of 10K+ working hours

Savings of 720KM+ forklift trips

"The time needed to upgrade BBN formulas for application has been streamlined from up to one month to virtually instantaneous, eliminating 130,000+ annual label replacements entirely."

With the Joget solution and support from Valuprosys, the customer has successfully digitalized their 12-year manual processes on BBN formula information. Legacy BBN formula information labels were replaced with BBN QR codes

The time needed to upgrade BBN formulas for application has been streamlined from up to 1 month to virtually instantaneous. As a result of formula enhancements, the need for rework involving labeling has been eliminated

The label replacement process on both the inner and outer packaging of raw materials, previously exceeding 130,000+ boxes annually, has been completely eliminated.

The extensive workload associated with warehouse turnover, which previously amounted to over 10,000+ working hours annually, has been reduced to 0.

The distance traveled by forklifts during warehouse turnover, which used to span over 720+ kilometers annually, has been brought down to 0.

Inventory counting and rework are no longer prerequisites. In the procurement process, communication with suppliers for rework labeling is now obsolete

Quality control no longer necessitates physical counts; rework batches are now included in operational instructions.
