IMS Informatica solutions in food
IMS Informatica's revolutionary solutions for continuous improvement were born in 1999 when a multinational company commissioned IMS to improve the configuration and control processes of the production of washing powders. Since then, IMS Informatica has carried out multiple projects, all aimed at continuous improvement, reducing costs and waste, eliminating errors, distributing information in real time, and eliminating the use of paper.
Excellent results have been obtained in recent years, in fact the plants that use our solutions have reduced the format changeover times from 2 hours to 5 minutes, have reached efficiency levels comparable to the best expectations of production control systems such as LEAN, and have been able to obtain economic savings of over 14 million in a year.
IMS Informatica has subsequently expanded its collaborations and the areas of use of its systems, and from today, IMS Informatica solutions are also used in the production of frozen food.
Our new customers recommend our solutions, thanks to which they have obtained as operational benefits:
- Centralization of the Check List management system;
