BESTMIX supports feed mills in formulating recipes at the best quality and lowest cost, giving the best ration advice to customers, and managing their logistics and financials most efficiently.
Deliver the best quality at lowest cost
Creating the best quality and lowest cost recipes is a major challenge for nutritionists around the world. Flexibility is required in order for you to efficiently respond to volatile material costs and quality. Formulation software, such as BESTMIX Recipe Management (Feed), allows you to formulate your products with the most detailed set of quality constraints, including nutritional requirements (such as energy, digestible amino acids, fatty acids), technical product specifications (texture, colour, density etc.) and other production constraints (evaporation, process losses). Not only the right formulation software is important but also the integration with Quality Control. A powerful Quality Control system – such as BESTMIX Quality Control - offers a platform that captures quality information on raw materials and transforms them into value for the formulation department. Integrating feed formulation and quality control software gives more flexibility and accuracy to really deliver the quality that was expected
Make the right purchase decisions
React fast and effectively to changes in your ingredients’ availability and prices. Purchasing decisions become more reliable when you evaluate your purchasing contracts using up-to-date information. Therefore, the multiblend functionality in BESTMIX Recipe Management (Feed) is there to assist you in this critical process. It enables you to evaluate every specific stock quantity, to break down costs to ingredient level, to calculate handling and transport costs, to assess specific quality and to assist you in correctly analysing which raw materials you should buy when to buy, which production location to assign them to and at which optimal price to buy. You can evaluate the impact of your purchase decisions at any time. By simulating alternative ingredients in a separate environment, you can define your purchase strategy without changing the current production recipes.
Gain customers by giving expert advice
Is it your job to improve the production efficiency of your customers? Translate top-notch knowledge into tailor-made customer advice. Use this cloud-based tool to determine perfectly balanced rations at the lowest cost for each animal type in all its production stages (weight gain at a certain body weight, milk production in a certain lactation period, etc.). Our solutions enable you to combine feed formulation and raton calculation in a unique ‘MultiAnimalType – MultiModel – MultiUser” concept. Use an industry-standard model (like CNCPS, NRC, Feed into Milk...), or create your model and switch between the different models for each client or project. Inform your customers and co-workers quickly and securely via the cloud.
Make your workflows efficient
Streamline your purchase, warehouse, sales and invoice processes with MILAS. Rely on an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system that meets the demands of the animal feed sector and assists you in making better decisions with fewer risks.
