    Frequently Asked Questions

    How can an ERP system help dairy businesses improve milk procurement?

    An ERP system takes the guesswork out of milk procurement. It records milk quantity, fat and SNF levels, and supplier info right at the collection point—digitally, so nothing slips through the cracks. You get automated pricing, an organized view of your procurement centers and routes, and a complete history for evaluating suppliers over time. This means every payment is transparent and accurate, and you keep milk quality consistent.

    Absolutely. The system lets you set up each milk type—cow, buffalo, goat, you name it—on its own terms. Each variety gets its own quality checks, costing rules, and processing steps. This way, your production planning and quality control stay sharp no matter what kind of milk you’re working with.

    Yes, it does. The ERP tracks every batch and lot, right down to expiry dates. You get full FEFO and FIFO control, plus shelf-life management. That’s how you keep waste low and product quality under control—critical for any dairy operation.

    Quality checks aren’t an afterthought—they’re built into every stage: pasteurization, homogenization, fermentation, packaging. The system logs fat and SNF data, checks hygiene standards, and keeps an eye on temperature-sensitive steps. The result? Reliable, high-quality dairy products, every batch.

    Yes, and it’s smart about it. The ERP maps out routes for both collection and delivery based on geography, demand, vehicle type, and delivery schedules. You get faster deliveries, lower transport costs, and happier customers.

    The system’s built for everyone—small cooperatives, mid-sized dairies, or huge operations with multiple plants. Whether you’re handling a few thousand liters or running a complex network, the ERP scales and adapts as your business grows.

    Yes. You can track raw milk, work-in-progress stages, and finished goods live—right down to the last litre. Stocks, expiry dates, production stats—all instantly visible. That helps you plan better and make decisions with confidence.

    Definitely. The system keeps you covered with traceability, batch and lot documentation, and hygiene controls at every production stage. It maintains full audit trails and a complete quality record, so you’re always ready for audits and regulatory checks.

    Yes. The ERP handles all your milk procurement costs—factoring in fat and SNF values—manages financial transactions and delivers precise profitability reports. You get integrated accounting, GL management, and expense tracking for total financial oversight.
