Overcoming Bottlenecks
Manufacturing business operations face increasing labour scarcity challenges. Be it cost pressures, geopolitical uncertainty, challenges rerouting paths to net zero climate change goals or other unplanned disruptions, capacity is at a premium across manufacturing networks.
Bottling companies in particular face significant network-related challenges due to the unique nature of their operations. They rely on IT infrastructures to improve operational efficiency, scalability, and resilience to tackle challenges including:
- Meeting High Availability Requirements: When operating numerous manufacturing and distribution sites, high network availability is required to maintain continuous production and meet global demand. Any network downtime can lead to significant financial losses due to halted operations. Robust and reliable IT solutions are needed to minimise these risks.
- Maintaining Complex IT Environments: IT infrastructure in the bottling industry is often inefficient, expensive, unreliable and complex. This complexity stems from managing multiple systems and data centres. Without the right IT services expertise, this can lead to difficulties in maintaining network stability and performance.
- Balancing Scalability Goals with Operational Efficiency: Bottling companies are under constant pressure to reduce their total cost of ownership (TCO) for IT infrastructure while optimising operational efficiency. Growing demand requires scalable IT infrastructure that can handle increased production without compromising performance.
