Solarsoft’s Tropos ERP delivers HMRC reporting at the click of a button at Scottish whisky distillery Bruichladdich
Solarsoft’s Tropos ERP software cuts lead times by over a week, eliminates overtime and delivers HMRC reporting at the click of a button at Scottish whisky distillery Bruichladdich.
Bruichladdich is a small, privately-owned Scottish distillery on
the remote Atlantic Isle of Islay. It specialises in producing
artisanal single malt whisky, just as it was in 1881.
The business is growing at a rate of 10-15% a year, its latest
annual revenues exceeding £7.5 million. As a result of this growth,
Bruichladdich found that it was becoming increasingly hard to
efficiently monitor and optimize its production activities and
stock levels. The company makes over 100 different products, which
is a lot in the whisky industry.
Bruichladdich has implemented an integrated suite of solutions
from Solarsoft, based around the company's core Tropos ERP system.
This includes Tropos Whisky Workbench, a module which gives
complete control over cask stocks and blending. Together, these
products allow the distillery to record, track and manage all
orders, stock levels, production planning, bottling/packing and
despatch on an end-to-end basis.
Key Benefits:
- Increased accuracy due to complete visibility across the
business
- Complete control of stock levels and values, increasing speed
and accuracy of month end reporting
- HMRC reporting at the click of a button, saving several days'
labour
- Worldwide access to real-time stock information, resulting in
shorter lead times on export orders
