Case Study: Nutra-Flo achieves 20% plant capacity gain and on-time, on-budget shutdowns with Cerri's Genius Project

Nutra-Flo - Customer Case Study

Nutra-Flo is a global manufacturer and processor of agribusiness products whose automated U.S. plants run nearly 24/7. To meet growing demand they regularly perform costly 90-hour plant shutdowns for maintenance and upgrades, and were struggling to manage the complex coordination of projects, resources and costs using documents, email and spreadsheets—one poorly planned shutdown could cost about $150K.

They implemented Genius Project on Domino, a quick, low-cost deployment that required no additional servers or software. The system centralized plans, resource allocation, cost and risk tracking, and reporting, enabling real-time collaboration, preventing scheduling conflicts, and improving execution; a recent shutdown ran on time and on budget and boosted plant capacity by 20%. The platform’s Notes/web access and replication support remote work (useful in places with unreliable internet), and Nutra-Flo has already expanded usage into marketing and safety with enterprise roll-out planned.
