SAP Business One for Packaging Industry
In Packaging, Precision Isn’t Optional—It’s Business-Critical.
Whether you’re producing corrugated boxes, flexible pouches, rigid containers, labels, or high-spec custom packaging, this industry demands speed, accuracy, and cost discipline. You’re dealing with quick-turn orders, design changes, tight tolerances, and shrinking margins all while trying to stay on schedule and under budget.
Clockwork Business Solutions delivers an SAP Business One solution tailored for packaging manufacturers, helping you streamline processes, reduce waste, and track every detail—from quoting and design through to production and dispatch.
Common Challenges in the Packaging Industry
- Custom designs and specifications change frequently, increasing setup time
- Material planning gaps lead to overuse or last-minute shortages of board, film, or ink
- No real-time visibility into production progress or machine performance
- Hidden costs and waste from yield loss or scrap go unmeasured
- Tough compliance standards for food-safe or export-grade packaging
What Clockwork Brings to Your Packaging Business
- Quote to Production—Seamlessly Integrated Create accurate estimates for any packaging spec—by shape, size, material, finish, and volume. Once approved, quotes convert directly into production orders, saving time and reducing manual errors.
- Design File & Die Management Track cutter profiles, embossing specs, color codes, and print parameters by job. Upload and link design assets to each order for faster repeat production and cleaner change approvals.
- Material Usage & Waste Monitoring Monitor consumption of board, foil, film, ink, and glue. Capture actual input vs output, identify scrap per machine or shift, and use this insight to reduce overuse and improve planning.
- Production Planning & Machine Loading Seamlessly sequence jobs across printing, lamination, die-cutting, folding, and packing to keep production running smoothly. Assign machines and teams based on order size, due date, and operator availability—keeping every minute productive.
- Batch Tracking & Dispatch Visibility Label each finished job with QR or barcode-based traceability. Link orders with dispatch notes and invoices and ensure GST/eInvoice readiness for every shipment.
