Industry-specific software from CSB-System is enabling Polish turkey meat specialist INDROL Sp. Z o.o Sp.kom to effectively manage production and deliver important cost savings, while ensuring quality assurance is maintained to the highest standards.

Since its inception in 1991 INDROL has made quality control its top priority, developing its processes in accordance with various QA certification standards such as HACCP and BRC. On receipt of materials, an extensive inspection process begins and continues from goods receiving through production to finished products and picking.

Using the CSB-System, all areas are equipped with information and control points that are incorporated and controlled within the software, enabling quality data to be captured at the point of origin. All the information can be easily retrieved at the push of a button for analysis purposes.

During procurement and slaughter, the software provides integrated functionalities for slaughter planning, slaughter, meat inspection, grading and slaughter data assessment. Data collected from these processes can also be used for vendor assessment. Target-actual comparisons enable the checking of respective yields per cutting order. CSB-Racks – CSB-System’s industrial workstations – with customised touch screens facilitate faultless inputting of cutting information.

The CSB-System provides an easy visual summary of INDROL’s production processes, and recipes and bills of material can be called up directly during production. The software also provides relevant data about sales quantities, sales volumes and margins, which can be organised in line with the various sales channels.

Commenting on the CSB-System, INDROL co-owner Pawel Waligorski says: “The industry-specific software simplifies communication in our operations, ensuring optimal information flow as well as effective planning of our production processes.

“The system helps us in reducing costs in all areas, and we can quickly retrieve any relevant data for corporate control. In this way we can take sound decisions and improve our competitive position.”
