Selerant today announced the release of its new DevEX Baseline System for food and beverage manufacturers.
From idea to label, Selerant’s core DevEX PLM platform enables companies to unify and control critical aspects of New Product Development and Introduction (NPDI), including innovation and R&D, specification and formulation management, product portfolio management, compliance, and packaging.
“DevEX Baseline for food and beverage saves time, resources and overall implementation costs by leveraging our state-of-the-art predefined templates, documents and configuration tools that are all tightly integrated within Selerant’s proven and world-class project management best practices,” said Federico Fontanella, Director of Product Management at Selerant.
DevEX Baseline’s three configuration profiles offer PLM options for any food and beverage company, regardless of size or maturity of existing processes around PLM:
- Express Configuration is for companies that need standard product data and do not have well-defined business processes for change control of the product data.
- Standard Configuration is for companies that want to control product development with structured status management phases and more detailed product data templates.
- Plus Configuration is for companies with complex business processes that need version control, specification templates, and process reporting.
DevEX PLM Baseline Food and Beverage Templates include:
- Ingredients Management: Implements creation, approval, promotion and activation processes for ingredients and their specifications.
- Packaging Management: Implements creation, approval and activation processes for packaging materials and their specifications.
- Finished Product Management: Implements creation, approval and activation processes for finished products and their specifications.
- Product Development: Food and beverage driven formula development integrated with approval workflows for recipes and their specifications.
- Regulatory: Implements single and multi-product labels, nutritional parameters and regulatory substances management.
- Product type specific functionalities: juices, alcoholic beverages and cereal products.
"Food manufacturers need to get products to shelf faster than ever while remaining compliant, and our DevEX Baseline system can help them get up and running in a fraction of the time a complex PLM implementation typically takes,” said Sunil Thomas, Selerant’s Chief Operations Officer, North America.
