Food production planning software for Irish producers.
Plan the week your factory will actually run.
In our experience, Irish food producers plan the week on a whiteboard or in a spreadsheet that lives on one PC in the production office. It works until someone is on holiday, an order changes on Tuesday afternoon, or a customer drops a same-day add-on. Keystone's weekly planner is the single live view of capacity, commitments, ageing-ready stock and short-dated stock — for the production manager who has 30 seconds before the next call.
- Drag-and-drop batches across the week, per line and per day
- Capacity vs. customer commitments rendered live — no manual reconciliation
- Ageing-aware: shows what is dispatch-eligible this week vs next
- One-click lock & dispatch — sends the week to production
The planner who knows everything becomes a single point of failure.
If your weekly plan only exists on Sarah's laptop, your operation has a vulnerability worth protecting. When Sarah is sick, on annual leave, or has stepped out for an hour, the plan is invisible to everyone else. The result is the same in every food factory we have walked into: production reacts to the last phone call instead of executing a plan, dispatch lurches, customer service apologises, and Sarah burns out.
One view that survives a sick day.
Sits next to your accounts package, not on top of it.
Keystone publishes invoiced sales to AccountsIQ, Sage, Xero or QuickBooks when an order dispatches. The planner is operational only — capacity, commitments, batches — not financial. Your finance team is unaffected.
