Industrial Manufacturing Beverage Plastics
Inforlogic and Infor SyteLine have been Selected for Beverage Plastics Digital Modernisation Programme.
Beverage Plastics Bottles ERP Success with Inforlogic
Beverage Plastics selected Infor SyteLine following a market review. With prior experience using SyteLine, the decision was initially based on familiarity with the system and confidence that it would support the bottling leader’s complex manufacturing processes.
A reference site visit to a manufacturing peer, Norbev, who is in the throes of a digital transformation project underpinned by SyteLine and Inforlogic, reinforced the decision.
Following a successful pilot phase, the project is scheduled for completion in August 2025.
Reducing Risk and Eliminating Inaccuracies
Anticipated benefits include substantial efficiency gains through automation and digital records, and greater intelligence to inform planning, as Beverage Plastics’ Shirley Dew explains.
“Infor SyteLine will replace manual, spreadsheet-based production planning for us, which in turn will reduce risk and eliminate inaccuracies. The increased visibility, control, and real-time intelligence that comes with having dynamic intelligence is set to bring huge benefits. Because patterns can be tracked and anomalies spotted, the best decisions can be channelled to optimise production.”
The deployment will also see stock and customer experience improvements, according to Shirley: “Previously, our raw materials were managed in Excel, but the MRP capabilities in CloudSuite Industrial will support a live view of raw materials inventory, managing the polyethene terephthalate (PET) stock levels, which are the predominant component of our BoMs, to support production.”
Our stock system for finished goods will be live 24/7 as opposed to our previous one which was a day behind. This dynamic visibility will not only bring efficiencies but minimise mis-picks and ensure supply is commensurate with demand. It will also allow us to better accommodate any last-minute requests, bringing greater value and flexibility to our customers.

A True Partnership
“Inforlogic has been a true partner throughout the project so far,” Shirley concludes. “The team are incredibly knowledgeable about the system, providing us with options for personalisation and different scenarios.
“I cannot speak highly enough of the technical team, who not only possess profound and comprehensive technical knowledge but also deliver training in a way that makes it easily understandable and digestible. The way they plan, explain, and package the documentation ensures that we have the correct information at our fingertips, which really brings confidence.
“Overall, Infor SyteLine, supported by Inforlogic, is nothing short of excellent and aligned perfectly with our business goals, not just now, but for the long term.”
