- 4 October 2016
ICT Group was selected by leading global baby food producer Danone Nutricia to develop the complete manufacturing execution system for a new plant in Cuijk, The Netherlands. The facility is Danone’s largest investment in Europe and will double the Dutch production capacity for its international early life nutrition brands. ICT will be responsible for the detailed engineering, delivery, installation and implementation of the software. Resulting in a 24/7 operational smart factory that will start its production in late 2017.
Danone Nutricia chose ICT Group after completing a similar and successful project at the baby food production plant of Danone Nutricia in Fulda, Germany. Bas Hazewinkel, Business Development Manager Food / Feed and Beverage at ICT Group: ‘This means that the software ICT will provide in Cuijk is based on a proven and fully operational Wonderware Manufacturing Execution System (MES) – the linking pin between customer demand and the machines delivering the right product. With ICT’s solution, Danone Nutricia will be able to build another state-of-the-art factory, characterized by highly intelligent production processes, connected machinery, integrated information systems, traceability of products and continuous performance analysis.’
