Case Study: Crux Fermentation Project streamlines brewery operations with Encompass Production Cloud

The Power of Integrated Processes with Crux Fermentation Project

Crux Fermentation Project, a Bend, Oregon craft brewery founded by owner and CEO Larry Sidor, needed a better way to manage its growing operations as its processes were still sporadic and each department handled things differently. As the company worked to turn a passion for experimental beer into a profitable business, it relied on Encompass Technologies and its Production Cloud beverage management software to create a more organized foundation.

Encompass Technologies implemented Production Cloud in 2016 to streamline production management, improve cost visibility, and give Crux Fermentation Project a single source of truth across the business. The result was better tracking of batch costs, more accurate beer pricing based on margins rather than competitors, and more resources available to support continued growth and innovative brewing.
