FOOD

Waste, traceability and the shift plan in food manufacturing.

In food manufacturing the expensive questions get asked after the fact. Where did that batch go, is this waste level normal, who runs which line this week. Miletus takes those three questions out of guesswork and puts them on record.

The jobs that go unmeasured today

  • How much waste each product creates is understood at month-end, not at the end of the shift.

  • Tracing a raw-material batch to the shipments it went into takes hours of digging through paper files.

  • The shift plan lives in one experienced person's head; when they take leave, the plan falls apart.

  • Cold-chain temperatures are logged by hand; a deviation shows up only when someone reviews the sheets.

  • Downtime reasons are not written down, so nobody knows which stoppage keeps repeating.

On instinct

Waste is called normal or high by an experienced eye. When a recall question arrives, the answer is hunted for in binders. The shift plan is rebuilt each morning around who showed up.

On measurement

Waste is recorded per product and per shift. Every shipment traces back to the raw batches it consumed. The shift plan is generated from order and capacity data, and every change is written back into it.

A typical first buildÖrnek · Sentetik

A synthetic example: at goods-in, every raw batch gets a printed QR label. On a tablet, the operator marks which batch went into which production order. Weighing and waste are captured on the same screen, per order. At dispatch, the case code is linked to the batches behind it. Tracing backwards then happens on one screen instead of in a filing cabinet.

What data we start from

  • Production orders and actual output quantities.

  • Goods-in records and batch (LOT) numbers.

  • The shift roster and attendance records.

  • Dispatch notes and customer orders.

Where we work

Miletus is based in İstanbul. We travel to plants in Çerkezköy, Hadımköy, Gebze and Dilovası for the site walk. The diagnostic call is remote, and you can join it from anywhere in Türkiye.
