The Agri-business sector is facing a number of global challenges that are driving change in the industry. Companies are re-evaluating current production and trade practices, relationships up and down the supply chain, co-opetition as a market strategy, and effects of local and national governments. The result of this evaluation is a driving need for flexible and efficient processes for producing goods.

Ramco understands the agri-food industry. The Ramco solution includes capabilities for produce/farm management, crop estimation and planning, farm input planning, scheduling, activity tracking, farm costing, quality assurance for inbound materials and finished goods. Also, the solution addresses procurement, demand fulfillment, farm and equipment maintenance, predictive maintenance, permits, equipment calibration, inventory, product conversion, inventory attribute tracking, lot tracking and lot history, growers’ accounting, performance management, people management, and web-based customer and supplier portals.

Based on Ramco VirtualWorks, Ramco solutions for agri-food provides companies with the flexibility they need to rapidly respond to evolving corporate imperatives, regulatory changes, and market conditions. Rather than re-deploy enterprise systems as the company reacts to these changes, the underlying platform can leverage business process models to quickly compose new business assets for true “change on demand.”
