Pinnacle Better Manages Global Manufacturing
Pinnacle Foods Group LLC, a food manufacturer of household brand names such as Duncan Hines and Vlasic, intends to implement the CDC Factory global manufacturing operations management (MOM) solution at three of its largest plants in the United States during phase one of the project, and an additional four plants during phase two.
The solution comes from CDC Software, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CDC Corporation, and is expected to help increase productivity through improved labor efficiency and equipment reliability and efficiency.
According to Tony Hipszer, CIO, Pinnacle Foods, "This project will be focused on improving staff performance by using the manufacturing operations management system, which CDC Factory provides out-of-the-box. We expect this to pay off by increasing our competitive advantage through lowering production costs."
Pinnacle plans to save $1 million in annual production costs after phase one of the project and a total of $4 million annually after completion of phase two.
