Nutraceutical products are typically made from a wide range of ingredients, so it can be a challenge for manufacturers or distributors to stay on top of their production and supply chain needs with traditional or systems.
Modern production requires a system that can handle process OR discrete manufacturing and track ingredients through all production or assembly processes. A good system should also provide quick information about the chain of activity in the event of a surprise inspection or recall. Wherefour's start-to-finish traceability™ is ideal for keeping contaminated products from reaching the market.
Whether you private-label, co-pack or produce your own line of beverage products, Wherefour's manufacturing software supports and maintains your requirements for the R&D, production, inventory control, quality, costing, BRC / SQF lot traceability, FDA compliance, state reporting, planning, scheduling, and warehousing or distribution of beverages.
Wherefour's flexible production module lets you design a custom workflow for product production or packaging that matches the process you are already doing. Overhead, like labor or unexpected costs for a specific production run, can also be added and included in COGS automatically.
Unlike many traditional ERPs, Wherefour's platform lets you create variable results from each batch, or even run a disassembly process (perfect for meat or produce processing) where something is purchased and broken into new ingredients that are then used in other products.
Determine what material you need now and in the future quickly and easily, while factoring lead times, reorder points and all the activity in your business. Create new purchase orders for replenishing inventory with a single button click!
Track everything used in your product business, including the user who did the transaction, the date and time, and all the associated costs as well. A button click generates full traceability reports showing material still in your facility and what went to customers.
Our customizable B2B ordering portal lets you give customers access to their own orders, standing orders and invoice history. You control what products they can order and what prices they pay. Wherefour can even apply promotional pricing based on the time of year or purchase volumes.
Whether you sell products through ecommerce, put them into distribution, or a combination of both, Wherefour's integrations and workflow help you automate the more time-consuming aspects of your business, such as order entry and fulfillment.
