Taste’l Fine Food Chose BatchMaster to Help Them Enhance Operational Visibility and Develop Tailored Recipes
Taste’L Fine Food Pvt. Ltd was founded by Mr A. K. Talwar in 2003 with a vision to be the leading manufacturer and preferred provider of processed foods, delivering the highest quality of ambient and frozen products whilst being committed to ethical business practices.
What started as a humble beginning in a 200 sq. ft office has grown, with hard work, into multiple factories, a vast product line, and a noteworthy presence in the global market.
Initially, they relied on software developed by their own team for tracking manufacturing operations. However, as the company began to expand, it failed to keep up, and the management experienced the need for a dedicated ERP solution.
The Need for a Tailored ERP Solution
The system that they were using was inefficient. It increased operational costs and reduced profit margins.
“Prior to adopting BatchMaster ERP, the software we had been using was developed by us. However, soon we realised that it was falling short in performing production, planning, and quality-related activities efficiently," said Mr A.K. Talwar, Managing Director, Taste’L Fine Food Pvt. Ltd, explaining the reason behind their switch to BatchMaster.
Why Did Taste’L Fine Food Pvt. Ltd Chose Batchmaster Web ERP
Struggling to obtain visibility into core business operations, the said company was actively looking for an ERP solution developed specifically for the food industry.
“Due to the absence of clear insights, we were unable to assess the amount of loss and measure the output produced at every stage,” said Mr Talwar.
After thorough research, they discovered BatchMaster and found it to be the most suitable solution to their specific business needs.
Key Factors Influencing the Decision Included:
- Enhanced Visibility: BatchMaster facilitated enhanced visibility into internal business operations, giving accurate insights and data, reducing anomalies and fostering data-driven decision-making.
- Loss Assessment: Segregating the production process into multiple stages facilitated effortless yield analysis. It enhanced traceability, giving precise insights into what went wrong and at which stage of production.
- New Product Development: “The module which I like the most is the NPD module that allows us to perform easy and quick sampling of our under-research products. With its batch-wise processing capabilities, we can keep the main inventory segregated from the inventory we use for sampling,” said Dr Ajay S. Kelkar, Operations Head at Taste’L Fine Food.
- Finance System Upgrade: BatchMaster’s robust system capabilities convinced management at Taste’L Fine to use it as their finance software as well. This way, they can have one centralised platform, ensuring flawless coordination across the organisation.
Looking Ahead:
Apart from flawlessly tracking production, BatchMaster’s advanced formulation capabilities enable Taste’L Fine Food to meet the nutritional requirements of certain clients. “For example, if you want to create impact food to give to armed forces, you need to give them those calories. With BatchMaster, we can design the product to meet certain nutritional specifications requested by our clients,” said Dr Kelkar.
Further, it precisely calculates the cost of production, accounting for factors like wastage, labour and machine downtimes, and adds desired markups. “We are still in the process of implementing it; it’s been so far so good, and we are looking forward to adopting it fully,” added Dr Kelkar.
