Dangote Farms required a robust ERP system for its tomato processing plant to manage the entire lifecycle from planting and harvesting to processing fresh tomatoes into paste. They needed a solution to handle complex financial, inventory, manufacturing, and quality control processes.
The Challenge
The tomato processing industry presents unique challenges that require specialized ERP capabilities. Dangote Farms needed to track raw materials from multiple farms, manage seasonal variations in supply, maintain strict quality standards throughout the processing chain, and ensure optimal inventory levels of both raw materials and finished products. The complexity of process manufacturing, combined with the need for real-time visibility into production metrics, demanded a sophisticated yet user-friendly solution.
The Solution
Reeltech designed and implemented a tailor-made ERP solution based on Microsoft Dynamics 365, configured specifically for the agro-processing industry. The system provides a 360-degree view of the entire business, from raw material procurement to sales and distribution. Our solution includes specialized modules for process manufacturing, quality management, batch tracking, and regulatory compliance specific to food processing operations.
The Implementation
The project is in its final stages, with our team ensuring every module—from finance and procurement to manufacturing and quality control—is perfectly aligned with Dangote Farms' operational workflows. We implemented comprehensive training programs for all user levels, from shop floor operators to executive management, ensuring smooth adoption across the organization.
The Results
Upon completion, the Dynamics 365 solution will provide unparalleled control and visibility over the entire plant. It will automate key processes, ensure stringent quality control, and deliver real-time data for strategic decision-making, significantly boosting productivity and reducing waste. The system will enable Dangote Farms to optimize their supply chain, improve product quality consistency, and enhance their competitive position in the market.
