Revolutionizing Olive Production with Calypso
Client Overview
Calypso is one of Bulgaria’s largest importers of olives and olive oil, renowned for their premium products, including stuffed olives, herbed whole olives, and more. While Calypso initially partnered with us to focus on digital solutions for one of their brands, our collaboration quickly expanded to encompass broader aspects of their operations.
Challenge: Digitizing a Traditional Production Process
After a year of successful collaboration, Calypso’s management decided to take a bold step toward modernizing their production process. However, this was no ordinary challenge. Almost every stage of their production relied heavily on manual labor, from machine operation to intricate handwork.
At first, even we were uncertain if such a labor-intensive process could be effectively digitized. The complexity of handling delicate olives and ensuring precision in their stuffing and packaging processes presented significant obstacles. Could technology seamlessly replicate what skilled hands had perfected over years?
Solution: From Patterns to Precision Automation
Determined to find a solution, our team conducted an exhaustive study of Calypso’s production line. Over several weeks, we delved into every minute detail of their stuffing and processing workflows, gaining valuable insights into the intricacies of their operations.
Through rigorous analysis, we began identifying patterns that served as the foundation for a potential automated system. After a month of meticulous planning, we developed an architecture tailored to Calypso’s unique requirements.
The initial deployment of the system underwent one key iteration to perfect its functionality. Ultimately, Calypso was equipped with a cutting-edge, fully automated digital environment designed to:
Analyze and monitor active production processes.
Plan production cycles with unprecedented accuracy.
Accept and process corporate client orders via a dedicated portal.
Automatically generate pricing, production timelines, utility costs, and factory expenses.
Forecast production cycles with a 93% accuracy rate—significantly higher than the previous manual approach.
Results: A Modernized Production Facility
What once was a fully manual, labor-intensive production line transformed into a streamlined and semi-digitized modern facility. The system’s ability to forecast and optimize production has not only enhanced efficiency but also enabled Calypso to make data-driven decisions with confidence.
Ongoing Partnership
Our journey with Calypso didn’t end there. We continue to collaborate, exploring additional improvements and expansions to their software, ensuring that their operations remain at the forefront of technological innovation.
This case study showcases our ability to tackle even the most challenging projects, turning bold ideas into tangible results. With Calypso, we proved that no challenge is too complex when met with determination, expertise, and innovative thinking.
