A Chilean winemaker has enhanced the efficiency of its operations with SAP.
Viña Concha y Toro has utilized the SAP solution Smart Winery to make better decisions based on two Artificial Intelligence models: one that predicts the future wine quality and another that predicts the end of the maceration process to optimize the quality of the wine.
Ricardo Luna, from the Concha y Toro Research and Innovation Center, said: “The great challenge of the wine industry is to adapt to climate change, which results in increasingly uncertain harvest periods. This challenge has productive and qualitative consequences, as well as greater uncertainty at the optimum harvest time. As a consequence, wineries must adapt the logistics for receiving grapes and managing winemaking.”
Smart Winery is a digital platform for grape and wine quality management, presented to winemakers as a tool for maximizing efficiency and productivity during wine processing decision-making.
BlueBoot, premier partner in SAP Business Technology and a leader in SAP user experience, was the strategic partner for the deployment. Its advice facilitated the incorporation of the solutions in the most efficient way.
