Optimising Temperature-Controlled Storage and Logistics with Sophus for Cost Efficiency and Waste Reduction

Problem Statement

In industries such as pharmaceuticals and food and beverage, where product integrity is heavily reliant on temperature control, optimizing storage and logistics is essential to ensure compliance, reduce waste, and maintain cost efficiency. However, achieving this optimization is highly complex due to the sheer number of factors at play—ranging from the variety of temperature-controlled environments (ambient, chilled, frozen) to the intricate interdependencies between production periods, product types, storage sites, and processing lines.

For example, pharmaceutical manufacturing requires strict temperature control for certain active ingredients and finished products. This entails aligning production schedules with the availability of inbound materials, while also accounting for product shelf life and regulatory requirements. Similarly, in the food and beverage sector, perishable items must be carefully managed to prevent spoilage while ensuring smooth delivery to the market.

Without effective coordination, these industries face significant challenges, including Inefficient Capacity Utilization, Operational Disruptions and Increased Waste.
