Until recently  many single-plant organizations  have been locked out of the benefits of the latest productivity improvement products due to high price points and levels of complexity. CDC Software has launched a solution to specifically address this need.

In this tough climate it is essential to remain focused on a series of clear productivity goals.  For Food & Beverage and Pharmaceutical manufacturers it is primarily about lowering the cost of production. CDC Factory Express has been developed to address these objectives and comes ready to go with an implementation timeframe of 4 weeks.

CDC Factory Express has striped out many of the capabilities more suited to multi-plant businesses and their associated costs whilst maintaining the key elements that have made CDC Factory the breakthrough performance enabler for world leaders such as Bay Valley Foods, Pinnacle Foods and Breyers Yogurt.

It combines 2 key modules of the CDC Factory software suite with an implementation services framework geared towards very specific ROI deliverables. This service pack includes standardized working practices, real-time performance intelligence, and ‘back to basics’ review structures that are tied directly back to the single goal of improved cases per labor hr. For our single plant customers this means:

45% Reduction in Project Cost

By packaging CDC Factory Express as one homogenous product CDC has been able to deliver a 45% reduction in the total cost for a single factory.

Using the experience CDC has gained working across large multi-plant organizations; the CDC Factory Express implementation path dramatically shortens the consulting engagement and time to ROI. The system comes pre-loaded with pre-seeded data, fault codes and day-to-day meeting structures all ready for immediate use.
The proven profit enhancement tools taken from kaizen and other techniques have been refined into a series of 4 simple to understand steps designed to guarantee improved performance.
