Challenge and solution

Key Challenge
To efficiently coordinate its multiple and complex business areas (milk production, cereal procurement, feed manufacturing, and member services) with a management system that no longer met its needs.
The Aritmos Solution
Implementation of Sage ERP X3, customized by the Aritmos software factory, to integrate and manage all of the cooperative's operations on a single platform.
Implemented Functionalities
The project covered the Finance, Purchasing, Manufacturing, Sales, and Logistics modules, with a special focus on managing feed production and coordinating the agri-livestock value chain.
About COOPERATIVA PIRENAICA
Founded in 1944, Cooperativa Pirenaica is a cornerstone for farmers and livestock breeders in the Catalan Pyrenees. Its value proposition integrates local technical service with the supply of inputs, administrative support, and, fundamentally, animal feed manufacturing. They are pioneers in Spain in implementing the “community unifeed” model since 1993, a custom-made wet ration service that optimizes the productive efficiency of farms, showcasing their innovative character and deep territorial roots.

Before Aritmos and Sage X3

Problem areas

Lack of integration
between member milk production, cereal procurement, and the planning of feed and "unifeed" manufacturing.
Complexity in managing member services
(veterinary, agricultural, administrative), which operated disconnected from the production core.
Management of the pioneering "community unifeed
with non-specialized tools, from custom formulation to daily delivery logistics.

Impact on the business

Operational inefficiencies
and difficulty in optimizing the use of raw materials, planning production, and controlling real costs.
Lack of a 360º view
which hindered strategic decision-making and limited the ability to offer an integrated and coordinated service to members.
Risk of losing competitiveness
competitiveness by being unable to analyze the profitability of a high-value business line and being unable to scale processes.

Our solution

The solution was to design and implement a central nervous system with Sage X3, customized by the Aritmos software factory to respond to the unique characteristics of the mountain cooperative sector, through three pillars:

Pillar 1: Agri-livestock Value Chain Integration
Key operations were digitally connected: member milk intake, cereal purchasing management, and the planning of feed and "unifeed" manufacturing, creating a single and coherent information flow.
Pillar 2: Professionalization of Member Service Management
The cooperative was equipped with a tool to manage all the services it offers to its members (technical, veterinary, administrative) in a unified way, allowing for complete traceability and better resource allocation.
Pillar 3: A Single Platform for Cooperative Management
Thanks to Aritmos' experience in the sector, Sage X3 was adapted to manage the complexities of the cooperative model, allowing for infinite simultaneous operations and providing a global vision for management.

The transformation: before and after

Before (with the previous system)

Disconnected Processes
Each business area (milk, cereals, feed, services) operated with isolated information.
Isolated Feed and Unifeed Manufacturing
Production planning was based on non-integrated data from other areas.
Decisions Based on Fragmented Data
Management needed to consolidate information from various sources to get a global view.

After (with Sage X3 and Aritmos)

360º Integrated Operations
A single information flow from the member to the factory and back to the member, all on one platform.
Smart and Coordinated Manufacturing
Production planning based on real-time data of raw material stock and member needs.
Strategic Decisions with Unified Data
Access to a complete and reliable view of the business to improve efficiency and member service
