Optimize your food & agriculture supply chain

Increasingly demanding customers and suppliers, stronger traceability focus and new technologies are altering the way Food & Agriculture companies do business. Find out how you can lead this transformation.

Optimize food & agriculture processes with tailored solutions from NTT DATA Business Solutions

Today’s Food & Agriculture businesses face a host of new challenges. Customers want to know exactly what they consume: from which grower in which country is the product? Is it grown, harvested and processed in a safe and environmental-friendly way? And in a way that optimises the nutritional value? Suppliers want a flexible business partner, who can commit to a long term volume contract combined with short-term process cycles and who can help them leverage new technologies on smart farming and the Internet of Things. More stringent food safety regulations and fierce competition force Food & Agriculture companies to optimise their traceability and recipe management.

To overcome these challenges, Food & Agriculture companies need to bring all of their processes together in one platform – with tailored ERP solutions providing integrated planning and transparency across the supply chain.
