Recipes for Success
Traditionally, enterprise technologies known as Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions have addressed the needs of discrete manufacturing and assembly; Consumer Electronics, Semiconductor, Aerospace, Automotive, and Industrial equipment companies. The product development processes for these companies rely upon design and engineering of physical structures using Computer Assisted Design (CAD) tools and the sourcing of parts and components.

Prodika, on the other hand, provides the infrastructure, collaborative business processes, product design tools, and performance management reporting for companies that design and manufacture products based on Recipes, Formulation, and Processing. Companies that can benefit most from Prodika solutions are in the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) industry specializing in Food & Beverage, Flavors and Fragrances, Cosmetics, Paints and Coatings, Specialty and Household Chemicals, and Personal Care Products.

Why Prodika? Why PLM?
More than ever before, modern organizations face increased competitive pressures from globalization, consolidation, and shortening product lifecycles. In today's market, companies must continuously innovate and focus resources on moving the right products to market faster, with the agility to respond to perpetually changing market conditions and regulatory controls. Because most (up to 80%) of a products supply chain costs are determined during the initial design, development, and sourcing phases of product development, companies can greatly improve their performance by increasing visibility and collaboration - providing critical information needed to (re)design products that maximize the capacity and capability of their supply chain relationships.
