FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Poultry Processor Townsend Gets Improved View of Important Cost Data
Townsend Inc., a leading global poultry processor, has
selected 3C Software to implement the Impact:ECS Enterprise
Cost System as part of their effort to effectively manage
production costs. The agreement includes software licensing,
consulting and maintenance services for its fresh meat
processing plants in Batesville,AR and Siler City, NC,the
further processing facility in Mocksville, NC and the
company’s headquarters in Georgetown, DE.
Unlike traditional manufacturers whose main focus is in
assembling products, poultry processors must also consider
costs involved with disassembling products. Because most ERP
systems are designed with only assembly in mind, Townsends
sought a costing solution flexible enough to accommodate
both processes. 3C Software’s track record in providing
customized costing solutions to food processors like
Smithfield Foods made Impact:ECS the best choice for
calculating, analyzing and reporting costs.
The consulting team from 3C Software will work directly with
cost and plant managers at Townsends to develop cost models
that accurately reflect their current business process. The
engagement, which is projected to last until the fall, will
provide tools for relative market value, standard and actual
costing, green weight computation, forecasting and yield
analysis, inventory tracking and valuation, and cost
reporting. Once the installation is complete, this important
manufacturing and cost data will be available to cost
managers and business leaders for review and analysis on
their desktops.
