WHAT IS INCLUDED
WHY BURTON UPON TRENT
In a food or drink factory, operational data is created constantly: intake temperatures, batch weights, CCP checks, cleaning records, pallet labels. Where it's captured on paper and typed up later, errors creep in and problems are found too late. Tablet or scanner-based capture at each point, linked to the batch, gives supervisors live visibility and turns traceability from a clerical job into a by-product of normal work.
OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS / BURTON UPON TRENT
Burton's distribution sites along the A38 and at Centrum 100 have related needs: dock scheduling, vehicle checks, driver hours and proof of delivery. Many use a warehouse management system that handles picking well but leaves the yard, the fleet and exceptions to spreadsheets. We'd build around the core systems rather than replace them, filling the gaps that currently rely on someone's memory.
IN PRACTICE / BURTON UPON TRENT
A food manufacturer could replace paper intake sheets with a tablet app that records supplier, temperature, batch and inspection results, blocking acceptance if a check fails and alerting the technical team.
A drinks co-packer might label every pallet at the end of the line and scan it through storage and despatch, so any finished goods can be located and traced to their production run.
A Burton haulage firm could have drivers complete daily walkaround checks on their phones, with defects routed to the workshop and a clear record kept for compliance.
