The Problem

Where Cash Leaks in a Cashew Plant

Without digital systems, these problems silently erode profitability every day.

📋

Paper-Based Records

Batch weights, timings, and yields written in registers — impossible to analyze, easy to lose, always delayed.

₹ Data gap
⏱️

Untracked Downtime

Machine stoppages go unrecorded. No MTBF, no root cause, no accountability. Losses are invisible.

₹ 50K–2L/month
⚖️

Poor Yield Visibility

Input vs output weight rarely reconciled. Kernel breakage, pilferage, and process inefficiency go unnoticed.

₹ 1–3L/month
📦

Inventory Guesswork

Raw material, WIP, and finished goods tracked mentally. No alerts, no aging analysis, no FIFO discipline.

₹ Capital locked
🏷️

Binning Errors

W180, W240, W320 grades mis-sorted without data. Premium grades sold at lower prices — margin lost.

₹ 2–5L/month
📊

No Decision Data

Owners rely on gut feel for pricing, vendor selection, and expansion. Competitors with data win.

₹ Strategic risk

Phase 1 — Web Dashboard

Historical Intelligence for Smart Decisions.

The web platform turns months of operational data into clear, actionable insights for management.

📈 Cost of Production (COP)

Track exact COP per kg across batches — raw material, labour, energy, steam. Compare batches, shifts, and seasons.

COP trend: ₹ 185/kg this week vs ₹ 192/kg last week

💰 Average Selling Price (ASP)

Log sale prices per grade and buyer. Track ASP vs COP to see real margin per batch.

W240 ASP: ₹ 820/kg · Margin: +₹ 635/kg

🏷️ Binning & Sorting

Grade-wise yield analysis per batch. Which batches produce more W180 vs W320?

📦 Inventory Aging

Raw material, WIP, and FG aging — alerts for stock older than threshold.

👷 Worker Productivity

Output per worker, per shift, per station. Identify top performers and training needs.

🔧 Downtime Analysis

MTBF, MTTR by machine. Downtime reason codes. Maintenance schedule adherence.

🚚 Vendor Analysis

Compare raw nut quality, yield, and price by supplier to pick the best source.

📊 Shift Reports

Auto-generated daily/weekly/monthly reports. No manual compilation needed.
