Trace the pulp,
prove the audit.
Built for packaging and packing operations selling into food and retail supply chains, where the FSSAI, BRCGS and SMETA audits decide whether the contract renews. The accelerator goes deepest on molded fibre — recipes, supplier lots, effluent and wastage on one traceable record — while the shared core runs the inventory, costing, quality and contract side of any packing operation.
An industry accelerator on the Prabandh platform — the same ERP, PLM, CRM and QMS core every other industry runs on.
The problem
You supply packaging into food and retail chains, and the audit renews the contract.
The audit is the commercial event, and the evidence is assembled after the fact.
Traceability from a finished batch back to the supplier lot actually consumed is reconstructed by hand when someone asks. Effluent and wastage sit in registers that can be edited after the fact — which an auditor will notice, because that is precisely what they are trained to test. Obligations are tracked in a calendar that nobody owns.
You will recognise these
- A recall question takes a day of paperwork to answer defensibly
- The BRCGS or SMETA prep becomes a project three weeks before the visit
- Environmental logs are maintained in a workbook anyone can change
- A customer call-off is measured against memory rather than the contract
- EPR filing is rebuilt each quarter instead of accumulating
What it costs when it goes wrong
A failed audit does not cost a fine — it costs the listing. Retail and food customers delist first and discuss afterwards, and re-listing takes a year you had not budgeted.
How Prabandh fixes it
- 01
Genealogy that runs both ways
A finished batch resolves back to every input lot and forward to every invoice it shipped on. A recall becomes a query with a defensible answer instead of a day of reconstruction.
- 02
Environmental logs that are append-only by construction
Wastewater and wastage records cannot be edited after they are written. That is a deliberate design choice: evidence that can be changed afterwards is not evidence, and an auditor will ask exactly that question.
- 03
One audit cockpit across the three frameworks
FSSAI, BRCGS Packaging and SMETA four-pillar in a single register, with obligations ordered by what is overdue rather than by what is convenient to look at.
- 04
Blanket contracts with a real release schedule
The customer’s call-off is measured against what was committed, so an over-call or a shortfall is visible while it can still be discussed.
What changes
Audit preparation stops being a project. The evidence already exists, in the record that produced it, in the form the auditor asks for.
Six capabilities you would otherwise build yourself.
Everything below is on top of the shared core — not instead of it.
Fibre Recipes with LCA
Material master carrying life-cycle data, with recipes resolving to the supplier lot actually consumed — not the one nominally specified.
Batch Genealogy to Supplier Lot
Follow a finished batch back to every input lot, and forward to every invoice it shipped on. A recall becomes a query with a defensible answer.
Audit Cockpit with Pillar Scores
FSSAI, BRCGS Packaging and SMETA four-pillar in one register, with obligations sorted by what is overdue rather than by what is convenient.
Effluent & Wastage Logs
Append-only by design — environmental evidence must not be editable after the fact, and an auditor will ask exactly that.
EPR Credits
Quarterly credit ledger held as records, so the filing is assembled from data rather than reconstructed.
Blanket Supply Contracts
Contract plus release schedule, so a customer call-off is measured against what was committed.
Eight integrated modules. One login.
Fibre Materials
Material master with LCA data and recipe lines.
Mould Master
Cycle logs, maintenance events and PM auto-scheduling.
Batch Genealogy
Production batches with material-lot consumption and release log.
Compliance Cockpit
Obligations, audits, nonconformances, SMETA pillar scores.
Sustainability
Wastewater, wastage and EPR credit ledgers.
Supply Contracts
Blanket orders with a release schedule.
ERP Core
GST invoicing, inventory, purchase, accounting and payroll.
Quality
Cobb value, heat seal, oil resistance, compression and drop tests.
The frameworks this industry is audited against.
Environmental logs are append-only by construction, because evidence that can be edited after the fact is not evidence.
A capability built for one reaches the rest.
The lifecycle freeze protecting a released drawing is the same one protecting an issued tech pack. The batch genealogy behind a food recall is the same engine behind fibre supplier-lot traceability.
Where we stop today
The honest boundary for packaging & packing, so you hear it here rather than three weeks into an evaluation. Everything above is built and reachable; everything below is not.
- FSC / PEFC chain-of-custody is not managed. Certified-fibre claims are recorded, not controlled.
- Migration and food-contact testing results are recorded; we do not integrate with the testing lab.
- EPR is a credit ledger and a filing pack — it does not submit to the CPCB portal for you.
Several of these are scoped and buildable on the shared core — ask, and we will tell you what it would take rather than whether it is “on the roadmap”.
