Optifi follows cost through recipes, yields, co-products, packaging, production lines, promotions and distribution to reveal net profitability by SKU, customer and channel.
Food and beverage margins are shaped by volatile inputs, variable yields, shelf life and complex routes to market. A standard recipe cost cannot explain the combined effect of waste, pack format, line performance, trade spend and customer service.
Input weight does not equal saleable output. Trim, moisture, recovery, disassembly and co-products determine the economics of every batch.
Optifi models mass balance and yield by stage, assigns joint cost using approved logic, and quantifies the margin effect of waste and recovery.
Ingredient substitutions, pack formats, batch sizes and line choices create different costs for products that may appear similar in the ledger.
Optifi versions recipes and routings, applies actual material and conversion rates, and calculates cost by batch, SKU and pack configuration.
Spoilage, expiry, rework, quality holds and traceability activity consume resources but are often absorbed into broad overhead.
Optifi traces quality and loss events to products, lines and customers so preventable cost becomes visible and accountable.
Promotions, rebates, small orders, chilled distribution, returns and retailer requirements can reverse an attractive gross margin.
Optifi combines trade spend and cost-to-serve with product economics to calculate net profit by customer, channel and route.
Stratic configures Optifi to automate recipe, batch, quality, procurement, sales and logistics data. Direct and shared cost flows through production and distribution using the drivers that caused it, creating a reconciled view from raw-material receipt to net customer profit.
