Context
PepsiCo Global Template · SAP S/4HANA

01 / The moment

PGT is live. The plant floor is still catching up.

PepsiCo now runs its core processes on the PepsiCo Global Template, built on SAP S/4HANA. Here is what we hear from the Cedar Rapids floor: since the transition, plant-wide tracking of ingredients, usage and spillage hasn't fully come back. That's a data problem with a people side, and both of our teams solve that kind of problem every day.

  • 1873milling oats on the Cedar River
  • 2M+ lbof oats processed every day
  • No. 1largest cereal mill in the world
  • ~3 mowithout plant-wide ingredient, usage and spillage tracking (reported)

02 / Snap into PGT

jay cloud doesn't sit next to PGT. It plugs into it.

  1. 1

    PGT stays the record.

    SAP S/4HANA remains the system of record. There's nothing new to reconcile against it.

  2. 2

    jay cloud runs on SAP BTP.

    You get your own tenant, test and production, inside the SAP landscape PepsiCo already governs. It's secured by SuccessFactors roles and single sign-on.

  3. 3

    Four modules snap in.

    TIME, ACCESS, VISITOR and LIFE SAFETY read roles, shifts and qualifications from SuccessFactors. Time events land in the Time Sheet through SAP-certified interfaces.

  4. 4

    Stand-alone tools retire.

    Separate clocks, badge databases, visitor books and roll-call lists stop being systems someone has to keep in sync.

03 / Two partners, one plan

RoviSys connects production. jay cloud connects the people.

Each team has its own lane, the lanes don't overlap, and both feed the same PGT record.

RoviSys Production lane

Plant systems→Production integration→PGT

  • Brings ingredient, usage and spillage records back into PGT from the plant's own systems.
  • Velotic (formerly GE Vernova Proficy) Platinum Solution Provider, with 35+ years of product tracking, genealogy and real-time inventory work.
  • Already working with PepsiCo, so there's no new-vendor learning curve.

The legacy plant system people call “Proficiency” may well be Proficy. If so, RoviSys has been implementing it for more than three decades.

jay cloud Workforce lane

People + site events→jay cloud on SAP BTP→SuccessFactors

  • Time bookings on plant terminals show which crew was on which line, on which shift.
  • Access, visitor and contractor rules come straight from SuccessFactors roles and schedules.
  • The same live data drives muster and evacuation.

Poksundo, the company behind jay cloud, was spun off from the dormakaba Group to build on SAP BTP.

Joint use case Waste by line, shift and crew RoviSys supplies what was spilled and where; jay cloud supplies who was on that line and shift.

04 / One plant, one record

Watch Cedar Rapids run on one record.

Live simulation · illustrative

Every spill gets a line, a shift and a name.

RoviSys captures each spillage event at the line, and jay cloud knows which crew was clocked onto it. Both post to PGT as it happens, so waste shows up in the shift report, not the quarterly review.

Shift Bposted to PGT
  • Line 1 · crew 60.0 kg
  • Line 2 · crew 70.0 kg
  • Line 3 · crew 80.0 kg

05 / Retire the redundant

Fewer systems to keep in sync.

06 / Start at one plant

Cedar Rapids first. Then the playbook.

  1. 01 · Assess

    Map the landscape

    We sit down with your operations, IT and HR owners to map the plant's systems, PGT interfaces, time clocks and HR configuration.

  2. 02 · Deliver

    Go live on a first line

    Waste by line, shift and crew goes live on one line, with TIME and ACCESS for one zone and a scheduled drill.

  3. 03 · Expand

    Reuse it at the next sites

    The interfaces, templates and acceptance criteria carry over to the next qualified PepsiCo plants.

What we'd baseline together
  • Spillage tied to a line and a crew
  • Time from spill to PGT record
  • Stand-alone systems retired
  • Drill roll-call time

07 / Next step

25 minutes, both teams, one plan.

Bring an operations or IT owner and someone from HR or EHS. RoviSys and jay cloud will be there together, and we'll leave with three things:

  • Clear technical ownership: production integration versus workforce and site events.
  • The right decision-makers and buying path.
  • A first plant engagement at Cedar Rapids.
