In order for a food and beverage process manufacturer to find an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, the software they choose must fit the functional requirements for that specific organization. This is true in the food and beverage field perhaps more than any other due to the highly complex nature of the industry. Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) is a term used to describe the products we use every day. The food and beverage industry falls directly in the FMCG. Because of this, there are certain key components that any food and beverage ERP system must have to be fully functional.

Suited for Process Manufacturing

Process manufacturing for the food and beverage industry involves a large number of various ingredients. It's also difficult to predict accurate yields, which differs from discrete manufacturing when it is much easier to determine the exact number of finished products. Also included in the mix are the many by-products and co-products, as well as the re-working of product that is common in food and beverage production.
