What we have achieved together
Data centralization in a shared product repository
Data characterizing products and their components (raw materials, semi-finished products, packaging) are structured in a centralized product repository. They are now quickly accessible and easy to update.
Making product development projects more reliable
Harmonizing and formalizing development processes promotes team collaboration for innovation, renovations, and regulatory updates, thus reducing time to market while avoiding errors and non-conformities.
Product formulation optimization
Automated calculations and a comparative view of different formulation hypotheses make it possible to identify the one that meets the requirements of the briefs and specifications on key criteria: cost price, Nutri-score, origin, nutritional values, allergens, etc.
Automatic generation of product sheets
Product sheets are generated automatically, with validated, up-to-date data. They can be edited in different formats according to customer requirements.
Keendoo modules used
They complement each other, enabling you to build up a complete, living product data repository.
❝ For us, the implementation of PLM had two major objectives: on the one hand, to secure the progress of projects and respect the time to market of products (Entremonts, Candia, Yoplait, etc.). On the other hand, to manage innovation/renovation through better management of the innovation portfolio. ❞
