Food & Beverage
HACCP traceability, CIP cycle monitoring, and cold chain management running entirely on your own infrastructure. Product recipes, allergen logs, and quality records never leave the production environment, satisfying GDPR data minimisation obligations and food safety audit requirements.
The Challenge
Food manufacturers carry a legal obligation to maintain traceability records and demonstrate process control. CIP temperatures, pasteuriser dwell times, filler speeds, and cold chain readings must be logged and auditable. When those records are stored in a cloud analytics platform, the manufacturer takes on an additional data controller obligation under GDPR — and a dependency on a third-party service for audit-critical data.
How BunkerM Fits In
BunkerM Enterprise connects to Siemens S7, Rockwell ControlLogix, and Mitsubishi FX series controllers publishing Sparkplug B metrics. Every temperature reading, dwell time, flow rate, and batch identifier is registered by name with its engineering unit. The AI assistant can answer shift-end questions: "Which pasteuriser on Line 2 exceeded 76°C deviation in the last 8 hours?" or "Summarise CIP completion status across all four filling lines." All data stays on the production server. Recipes and process parameters — proprietary IP — never leave the plant.
A Typical Deployment
A dairy cooperative operates six production sites. BunkerM Enterprise aggregates telemetry from pasteurisers, filling lines, and cold stores across all sites into a single broker instance at the head office. The quality team queries HACCP records by AI chat for audit preparation. The maintenance team receives Telegram alerts for equipment offline events and CIP cycle anomalies. Product recipes and formulation data remain within the cooperative's private network.
Privacy & Compliance
🔒 Traceability records on-premises. HACCP logs and production records can contain information linked to employees and batch-level customer data. BunkerM Enterprise stores and processes all of this locally, consistent with GDPR data minimisation principles. No third-party processor touches audit-critical records.
