Production Planning & Yield Optimization Software for Food Plants
Plan smarter, waste less, deliver consistently. Built for yield, shelf life, and daily execution.
See How We Build for Complex BusinessesFood plants operate under tight margins, variable inputs, and strict shelf-life constraints. Planning decisions directly impact yield, waste, service levels, and food safety. When planning lives in spreadsheets or generic tools, teams react instead of optimizing. This solution focuses on a production planning and yield optimization system designed specifically for food manufacturing realities.
Who This Is For
We usually work best with teams who know building software is more than just shipping code.
This is for teams who:
Food manufacturers running multi-line production
Plants struggling with yield loss or waste
Operations teams balancing demand and shelf life
Manufacturers scaling volume or product variety
This may not fit for:
Plants with very low production complexity
Teams relying solely on fixed production schedules
Companies unwilling to track yield accurately
Businesses looking only for reporting tools
the real problem
Why food production planning breaks down
Most food plants plan production using static forecasts and manual adjustments. Variability in raw materials, line performance, and demand leads to overproduction, waste, missed deliveries, or quality risks. Yield losses are discovered after the fact, when it is too late to correct.
how this is usually solved
(and why it breaks)
common approaches
Plan production using spreadsheets
Adjust schedules manually during execution
Review yield only after production completes
Ignore shelf-life impact during planning
Where these approaches fall short
High waste and yield loss
Frequent schedule disruptions
Missed delivery commitments
Limited visibility into root causes
Core Features & Capabilities
01
Food-Specific Production Planning
Production plans aligned with demand, capacity, and shelf-life constraints.
02
Yield and Waste Tracking
Real-time visibility into yield, losses, and deviations by line and batch.
03
Capacity and Line Optimization
Balance workloads across lines to reduce bottlenecks and idle time.
04
Scenario and What-If Planning
Simulate demand changes, shortages, or downtime before committing plans.
05
Execution Feedback Loop
Actual production data feeds back into planning for continuous improvement.
how we approach it
01
Model planning around real food plant constraints
02
Connect planning directly to execution data
03
Focus on yield improvement, not just schedules
04
Iterate plans based on real outcomes
How We Build at PySquad
We design planning systems that reflect how food plants actually run. Planning, execution, and yield tracking are tightly connected so decisions improve outcomes, not just schedules.
outcomes you can expect
Reduced waste and yield loss
More reliable production schedules
Better use of plant capacity
Higher confidence in planning decisions

let's build yoursFrequently asked questions
This system is built around food-specific constraints like shelf life, yield variability, and quality risk, not generic manufacturing assumptions.
Yes. It integrates with ERP and execution systems to pull actual production data and push optimized plans.
By planning with real yield data, capacity limits, and shelf-life constraints, waste drivers are identified and reduced proactively.
Absolutely. The system supports product variability, seasonal demand shifts, and changing raw material quality.
Most plants see measurable improvements in yield visibility and planning reliability within weeks of deployment.
