ERP Integration for Food Supply Chains

The challenge

Your ERP runs the business. Your food data lives somewhere else.

Your supplier approvals, specifications and quality results sit in food-specific records, outside your ERP. When the two aren't connected, your teams keep them aligned by hand, and that's where mismatches and risk creep in.

The solution

Foods Connected works alongside your ERP, not instead of it. Your ERP stays the system of record for buying and finance. We hold the verified food data and keep both in step automatically, so your purchasing, quality and technical teams all work from the same facts.

Re-keying

Your teams type the same supplier and product details into two systems, and every re-key is a chance for a mismatch.

Approval status

A supplier is approved or suspended in one place, but your purchasing team doesn't see it until later, if at all.

Out-of-date specs

Specifications change by email, so your ERP can hold an old version while production has already moved on.

FAQs

Answers to the questions we're asked most about ERP integration.

Does Foods Connected replace our ERP?

No. Your ERP keeps running orders, stock and finance. Foods Connected adds the verified food data around it, such as supplier approval status, specifications and quality records, and keeps your ERP up to date when they change.

Does Foods Connected integrate with SAP and other ERPs?

Yes. Our integration is proven with SAP, and we connect to the other ERPs and systems you already use. We confirm the detail for your landscape with your IT team.

Can we connect production systems (MES) as well?

Production-side connections are scoped with your IT team, so MES data can sit alongside your ERP integration. We confirm what's supported for your systems in the demo.

Can we use Power BI and other reporting tools?

Yes. Use the built-in reports, Microsoft Power BI or both, and our analysts can help you set them up.

Is it safe to connect an AI assistant to our data?

Yes. The assistant signs in as you through OAuth 2.0, so it can only read what you're already allowed to see. Foods Connected is ISO/IEC 27001 certified and independently penetration-tested.
