A common problem in the Flavors, Fragrance & Beauty Care industries is the complexity of scheduling thousands of ingredients, some of which require SOE, into tens of thousands of recipes. Furthermore, this issue worsens due to its necessity to fit into a consistently changing schedule that experiences disruption which continually forces reconsideration and revision of pre-established schedules. BatchMetrics solves this problem in that its Dynamic Scheduler/Optimizer assists in decision-making by providing rules-based artificial intelligence real time visibility, preventing undesired downstream consequences.
