Case Study: Montes del Plata achieves 4,000 tpd production stability and streamlined warehousing with Honeywell's OptiVision

Honeywell’s OptiVision Drives Efficiency at Montes del Plata Pulp Mill

Montes del Plata, Uruguay’s largest private-sector industrial complex and a major exporter of eucalyptus pulp, needed a way to coordinate sales, quality, tracking and lab data while optimizing inventory and warehouse operations to standardize quality and avoid demurrage. Honeywell supplied its OptiVision order-to-cash solution (with Quality OptiMISER and integration to Experion PHD) to meet the plant’s planning, scheduling and delivery requirements.

Honeywell implemented OptiVision tightly integrated with the ERP, the Balematic baling system and Experion PHD, plus a mobile app for clamp-truck drivers to automate barcoding, online quality classification, warehouse allocation and shipping. The deployment supported stable, efficient production of up to 4,000 tpd, improved warehouse utilization, tighter quality control, faster and more accurate dispatches, and delivered KPIs for continuous improvement.
