Challenges
Before Sera, the greenhouse struggled with managing multiple sites effectively, including:
- Inconsistent operational practices across locations, leading to variability in performance.
- High error rates due to a lack of centralised oversight and automated monitoring.
- Time-consuming manual processes for tracking and aligning multi-site operations.
Solution
We implemented a centralised management system tailored for multi-site operations:
- Centralised Decision-Making: Streamlined strategic planning and operational directives to ensure consistency across all sites.
- Automated Monitoring: Deployed automated systems to track performance metrics in real time, flagging anomalies for quick resolution.
- Unified Oversight: Provided a single platform for monitoring and managing all locations, reducing complexity and enhancing transparency.
- Standardised Practices: Established uniform workflows and best practices to align operations across sites.
Outcome
- Reduced Error Rate: Achieved a 50% reduction in errors by standardising processes and automating performance monitoring.
- Improved Consistency: Ensured uniform performance across all locations, enhancing productivity and reducing variability.
- Time Savings: Freed up management resources by automating routine oversight and reporting tasks
Why it matters
With centralised management and automated monitoring, this Mexican greenhouse overcame the challenges of multi-site operations, achieving consistent performance and reduced errors across locations.
