Fulvisol Food + Beverage: From Field to Fork with Precision

Fulvisol Food + Beverage is a PLM package for food and beverage manufacturers, built on the Aras Innovator platform: raw materials and supplier specifications, recipes, nutrition and allergen data, costs and packaging in one system. Fulvisol, an Aras Gold Partner, implements it for companies in Finland, the UK and the DACH region.

Master Your Recipes & Formulations

Managing a multi-level recipe isn’t just about ingredients; it’s about understanding the impact of every change. Our package provides the tools to simulate, calculate, and optimise your products in real-time.

  • Automated Nutrition Calculation: Instantly generate nutritional panels (EU and global standards) based on your formulation and integrated nutrient databases.

  • Allergen & Claims Tracking: Automatically flag allergen exposure and validate marketing claims (Organic, Non-GMO, Vegan) across your entire product portfolio.

  • Recipe Costing & Yield Modeling: See the real-world cost impact of ingredient substitutions or process changes before you hit the production floor.

  • Version & Revision Control: Maintain a full audit trail of every recipe iteration, ensuring that production always uses the most current, validated version.

Compliance & Quality by Design

In the F&B world, compliance isn’t a final step—it’s the foundation. We bake global regulatory requirements directly into your product development workflow.
  • Integrated Quality Management: HACCP documents and critical control points (CCP/OPRP) on the recipe’s process steps, in the same system that holds your recipes.

  • Supplier Portal & Certification: Securely collaborate with suppliers to collect COAs (Certificates of Analysis), specifications, and sustainability certifications.

  • Audit-Ready Traceability: See at once which recipes, products and trade items use a raw material or supplier material, across every revision, when a recall or a regulatory inquiry comes in.

  • Packaging & Labeling Synchronisation: Ensure your labels always match your latest formulation, reducing the risk of costly mislabeling recalls.

  • Multilingual Labelling with Evidence: Ingredient statements in every active label language, with allergens and additive classes in the words of Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011. Translated ingredient names are checked against real product labels (Open Food Facts, ODbL), EU legislation and IATE, and keep their evidence.

Who is Fulvisol Food + Beverage for?

For food and beverage manufacturers and brand owners, from rapidly scaling brands to global enterprises, whose R&D, quality, regulatory and purchasing teams work on the same products. The package adapts to your processes:

  • Workflow Automation: Streamline the “Stage-Gate” process for new product introductions (NPI), ensuring that Marketing, R&D, and Quality are always in sync.

  • Scalable Architecture: As your product line grows or your supply chain becomes more complex, the resilient Aras framework grows with you.

  • Seamless ERP Integration: Connect directly to your manufacturing systems (like Odoo or SAP) to ensure a smooth transition from R&D to full-scale production.

Frequently asked questions

Nutrition values are calculated from the recipe and the supplier specifications behind it, and allergens, including may-contain, follow from the composition. Ingredient statements are produced in every active label language, with allergens and additive classes in the wording of Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011. When a recipe changes, the product’s declaration is marked as outdated, and a product cannot be released while its declaration rests on recipes or raw materials that are not yet approved.

We start with a three-day Kickstarter workshop at a fixed price, followed by a proof of concept in an Aras environment with your real ingredient specifications, typically 4–8 weeks at a fixed price. Further functions are added in 2–4 week sprints. Go-live typically follows 3–6 months after the start, with no 18-month big-bang project.

Yes. Fulvisol loads your existing product data from Excel files or legacy systems into Aras Innovator with its own data-loading methods. The data load is a separate service within the implementation project.

Food + Beverage is an additional package fee on top of the Aras Innovator subscription. The Aras subscription is based on the number of active users.

For European customers, both Aras Innovator SaaS and Fulvisol’s managed SaaS run in selected European Microsoft Azure data centres, and your data stays in the region chosen at setup. You retain exclusive ownership of all right, title and interest in your data, and you can export all of it at any time through Aras Innovator’s standard REST API.

Yes, it keeps the records these audits ask for. Every change to a specification or recipe becomes a new revision, and the history log shows who approved which revision and when. Allergen data rolls up from the raw materials into the declaration. Supplier specifications go through approval, and certificates carry validity dates with automatic expiry notices. A where-used search shows every recipe, in every revision, that uses a given raw material.
