The word ‘manufacturing’ conjures up images of collecting a set
of materials and assembling them to create a finished product.
For food processing, disassembly, or reverse manufacturing, is
often the starting point for the manufacturing process.
Calculating costs for the disassembly steps is not native to
most financial systems, but ImpactECS is designed to exactly
mirror any manufacturing process. In environments where the
starting point is one item (a chicken) that is separated into
smaller parts (wings, breasts, etc.) and then processed
(marinated, packaged), the need for a sophisticated costing
system is vital to accurately calculate product costs. ImpactECS
can calculate costs for every manufacturing step, analyze yields
and variances across lines and plants, and report results to
business and operations leaders all in one system. Raw Material
and Substitution Costs Integrated food processors generally have
both internal and external sources for raw materials. With
multiple costs for the same starting ma
