Pepsi saves time using STATISTICA Enterprise for quality monitoring and control

General Bottlers CR, which is part of the PepsiAmericas international company, produces and distributes
nonalcoholic beverages of brands known worldwide.
While producing these beverages, the company monitors parameters pertaining to the quality of raw materials, production itself,
and bottling, which includes the quality of water, the volume of sugar, the volume of CO2, the accuracy of the bottling,
tightness of bottle caps, etc. Regular reports are then produced for management to monitor and evaluate the production quality.
In the past, data acquired from gauges were manually entered into paper forms. Then they were manually transferred into an
electronic form, and reports were generated from them by hand.
General Bottlers decided to implement STATISTICA to automate the whole process to save time and costs and
also improve the quality control process with the use of modern analytic tools.
"
We've decided to implement StatSoft software in the Pepsi Prague plant, and I am sure it is the right decision
to have the same technology as our Polish division.Statistical models are becoming part of our everyday life, and a proper
computer software package can significantly decrease the time we are spending creating and analyzing these statistical models.
I am sure this tool and technology will bring significant change for our quality team and help them to be efficient and successful.
Data collecting and automation brings great opportunity for proper results analyses and production process improvements,"
said Adam Czap, Manufacturing Director CR & SR.
