“We tried three different ERPs in five years. Each one promised the world but delivered headaches. Then we found BETs ERP Software– and everything changed.” ERP
If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve been there too. You’ve probably spent countless nights wondering why your ERP software fights you instead of helping you. Why does it take 10 clicks to do something that should take 2. Why your procurement team still maintains Excel sheets “on the side” because the system just doesn’t get it.
Here’s the thing: Most ERPs are built by tech people for tech people. BETs ERP Software is built by tech people for food and FMCG people.
The Pain is Real (And We've All Been There)
Let me paint a picture that probably sounds familiar:Â Bakery ERP
Monday Morning, 9 AM:
Your production manager storms into your office. “Sir, we’re short on cardamom again! The system didn’t alert us, and now the entire batch is delayed.”
Tuesday Afternoon:
Your accounts team is manually calculating GST rates for different product categories because your current ERP Software treats everything like you’re manufacturing bolts and nuts.
Wednesday Evening:
You’re staring at three different Excel sheets trying to figure out which vendor gave you the best rate for packaging material last month. Your “integrated” system has the data, but good luck finding it.
Thursday Night:
You’re up late because tomorrow’s dispatch needs special handling for temperature-sensitive products, but your ERP Software thinks milk powder and steel rods are the same thing.
Sound familiar? That’s because generic ERPs don’t understand the unique complexities of food and FMCG businesses.
Why Food & FMCG is Different (And Why Generic ERPs Miss the Mark)
In manufacturing, you make widgets. In food and FMCG, you create magic.
Your masala blend isn’t just “Product A” – it’s a carefully crafted recipe where cardamom quality affects taste, moisture levels impact shelf life, and seasonal variations require constant adjustments. You need two-step recipe management where your finished goods map to both raw materials and semi-finished goods, and your semi-finished goods have their own complex recipes.
Generic ERPs? They see ingredients as line items. BETs ERP Software sees them as the building blocks of your brand.
The Batch Tracking Nightmare
Remember when you had to recall that batch of pickle because one supplier’s oil wasn’t up to standard? With a generic ERP Software, tracing that batch felt like detective work. You needed to cross-reference purchase orders, production records, and dispatch data across multiple modules.
BETs ERP Software tracks every ingredient from supplier to consumer. Batch numbers, expiry dates, supplier details, production dates – everything linked seamlessly. When you need to trace a batch, it takes minutes, not days.
The Seasonal Demand Puzzle
Your demand forecasting isn’t just about historical data. Diwali sales are different from regular months. Monsoon affects both your supply chain and customer preferences. Festival seasons create demand spikes that would break a regular manufacturing model.
BETs ERP Software understands this. It lets you create production plans based on seasonal patterns, festival calendars, and historical trends specific to FMCG businesses
The Vendor Rate Chaos
In manufacturing, steel prices are steel prices. In food and FMCG, turmeric rates change weekly, packaging costs fluctuate with crude oil prices, and that small supplier in Kerala might give you the best cardamom at the right price – if you can track it.
You need real-time vendor rate comparison, automatic purchase recommendations based on quality ratings, and payment tracking that considers the credit terms of 50+ vendors simultaneously.
How BETs ERP Software Actually Gets It Right
Smart Procurement That Thinks Like You Do
Remember checking three different systems to compare vendor rates? BETs ERP Software shows you the last three rates from each vendor for every product, side-by-side. Planning to order turmeric? You instantly see:
- Supplier A: ₹180/kg (delivered 15 days ago, quality rating: 8/10)
- Supplier B: ₹175/kg (delivered 10 days ago, quality rating: 9/10)
- Supplier C: ₹185/kg (delivered 5 days ago, quality rating: 7/10)
The system even suggests which vendor to choose based on your predefined criteria.
Production Planning That Understands Recipes
Your production isn’t just about quantities – it’s about getting the recipe right every time. BETs ERP’s Software advanced recipe management system handles:
- Step 1: Your finished goods (like premium masala) mapped to both raw materials (whole spices) and semi-finished goods (ground spice mix)
- Step 2: Your semi-finished goods (ground spice mix) mapped to their raw material components
When you plan production, the system automatically generates material requisitions for both raw materials, semi-finished goods and packaging material, ensuring nothing is missed.
Inventory That Knows Your Business
Your turmeric powder has different handling requirements than your packaging boxes. BETs ERP Software lets you set minimum and maximum stock levels for each item individually, with automatic reorder suggestions that consider:
- Seasonal demand patterns
- Supplier lead times
- Product shelf life
- Storage constraints
The dashboard alerts you when any raw material drops below minimum levels – no more surprise stockouts.
Distribution That Handles Your Complexity
Your distribution isn’t just “ship Product A to Location B.” You have:
- Temperature-sensitive products that need special handling
- Different product mixes for different regions
- Franchise orders that need consolidation
- Route optimization for multiple vehicle types
BETs ERP Software maps your entire distribution network – routes, vehicles, dispatch stations, and product requirements – so your dispatch team knows exactly what goes where, when, and how.
