Case Study: Equatorial Coca-Cola Bottling Company achieves operational excellence with Evocon

Equatorial Coca-Cola Bottling Company improves line performance across 13 countries with Evocon

Equatorial Coca-Cola Bottling Company (ECCBC), a major bottling partner for The Coca-Cola Company in Africa, needed a way to accurately track Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) across all its plants to support its operational excellence goals. The challenge was to find an OEE software solution that provided real-time data access, was easy to implement, and could enhance performance meetings. To meet this need, ECCBC collaborated with the vendor Evocon.

Evocon provided a real-time monitoring solution that was implemented through a successful pilot project. The software gave a clear picture of bottling line performance, which helped ECCBC make better decisions, improve analysis, and increase efficiency. Key results included the elimination of paper-based data collection and the revelation of previously unrecorded stoppages. Evocon's implementation paved the way for further integration with the company's ERP and energy platforms.
