Challenges in the alcoholic beverage industry

Compliance and traceability risk

Stringent government regulations and inspections make production insights, real-time traceability and recall readiness a constant struggle. Transitioning to digital operations is essential to automate audits, protect brand consistency, and improve performance.

Hidden line losses

Untracked changeovers, stoppages and sub-optimal speed settings on lines quietly reduce throughput. Without digital insights into these operations, micro-stops remain hidden, making it difficult to improve performance.

Utilities and resource waste

Rinsing, CIP cycles, and energy-heavy compressors and chillers drive up costs and hinder sustainability targets. Without digital monitoring, identifying waste in these operations is impossible, limiting your ability to improve performance.

Disconnected processes

Paper logs and siloed data across owned and contract bottling plants slow down critical decision-making. Unifying these fragmented operations through a digital platform is the only way to gain enterprise-wide visibility and improve performance.

Digital alerts for leaks, idle consumption, and process inefficiencies in compressors and chillers.
Correlation of utility waste with specific rinsing and CIP (Clean-in-Place) cycles.
Digitization of ETP (Effluent Treatment Plant) operations and regulatory reporting.
Automated tracking of specific carbon emissions to meet corporate sustainability targets.

Impact:

Enterprise analytics

Centralized digital operations cockpit for real-time KPI comparison across plants
Standardized performance benchmarking and transparency for contract bottling and co-packing partners.
High-level executive scorecards for SEC, SWC, and OEE trends across the enterprise.
Instant digital audit trails for government, and environmental compliance.
Data-driven trend analysis and forecasting to identify long-term opportunities to improve performance.

Impact:

The Altizon advantage

Integrated asset interoperability

Bridges the data gap between high-speed bottling lines and critical utilities like compressors and chillers. Our platform unifies disparate equipment generations into a single digital record for all operations.

Alcohol-ready analytics

Eliminate custom development with pre-configured templates for product composition, SEC, and SWC. These alcohol-specific benchmarks allow you to improve performance and automate compliance reporting from day one.

Governed digital workflows

Moves beyond basic digitization by enforcing real-time validation rules on the plant floor. This ensures product composition data is accurate and reconciled instantly, eliminating the "paper scramble" during regulatory audits.

Enterprise scalability

Our cloud-native architecture standardizes digital operations across owned plants and contract bottling sites. Gain the centralized visibility required to improve performance across your entire brand portfolio.
