Overview

Food and beverage manufacturers face relentless pressure

Tighter margins, higher quality standards, sustainability mandates, and increasing complexity on the plant floor. Mondelez chose not to wait. 


As part of a global digital transformation, the company set bold goals — zero waste, 100% employee adoption, and a factory of the future powered by real-time data. But achieving those goals required more than ERP and quality systems alone. 


That’s where Shoplogix came in.

The Challenge

Big transformation goals. Missing shop-floor execution.

Mondelez launched a large-scale Integrated Digital Factory (IDF) strategy to unify ERP, quality, and enterprise systems across its global operations. The vision was clear: transparency, efficiency, and continuous improvement. 


But in practice, a critical gap emerged.

Despite having enterprise systems in place, the company could not reliably see what was happening on the plant floor in real time. Production data was incomplete, inconsistent, or delayed — making it nearly impossible to act quickly or accurately.

What That Looked Like on the Plant Floor

When you can’t see the problem, you can’t fix it.

In one facility alone, early data revealed 8.3 hours of lost production per week, hidden in plain sight.

Operators couldn’t see issues as they happened, so problems lingered

Slow-running lines and excessive changeovers went unchecked

Waste reached 1.57%, costing approximately $1.1M annually

Teams lacked benchmarks to compare current runs vs. past performance

Root cause analysis relied on assumptions, not facts

Minor stops accumulated into major losses

Average 25 days between next run (DBNR) created unnecessary downtime

The Shoplogix Solution

The real-time execution layer Mondelez was missing.

After evaluating 30 different solutions, Mondelez selected Shoplogix Smart Factory Suite to complete its IDF strategy.

The Real Results

Measured impact. Real dollars. Real engagement.

Accurate, accessible data transformed decision-making, from reactive to proactive, from assumptions to action.

$1.5M in annualized operational benefits
59% reduction in waste
59% reduction in waste
54% reduction in changeover time
Stronger accountability across teams
Operators and managers aligned around the same real-time truth

Key Takeaways

You can’t improve what you can’t see

ERP and quality systems need a real-time execution layer

Operator visibility drives accountability and engagement

Fast time-to-value matters in large-scale transformations

Standardized metrics unlock scalable continuous improvement

Why It Matters for Manufacturers

Smart manufacturing isn’t about more data, it’s about the right data, at the right time, for the right people.

Many manufacturers invest heavily in enterprise systems but still struggle on the plant floor. Shoplogix bridges that gap — connecting machines, people, and systems to turn insight into action.

Whether your goal is waste reduction, OEE improvement, sustainability, or team alignment, real-time visibility is the foundation.

Looking Ahead

With Shoplogix embedded into its global operations, Mondelez continues advancing its vision of a consumer-driven, responsive, and autonomous factory of the future, where every shift, every line, and every team operates with clarity and confidence.
