Background
First established in 1898, Sanitarium Health Food Company is something of an institution in Australia and New Zealand. The company has a portfolio of 150 products, including the iconic Weet-Bix, and around 1500 staff, with 11 sites across Australia and New Zealand, eight of which are manufacturing sites. Sanitarium originally went live with SAP in 1999, and the latest round of projects were initiated in response to a need identified by the business to achieve real-time production confirmations, automated generation and application of serial shipping container code (SSCC) labels, and the generation of real-time production information for the shop floor.
