and individualized management and analysis framework for the many different processes DS Smith performs in its North American network of box, sheet feeder, sheet, and specialty packaging plants – including paper inven- tory, corrugation, sheeting, flexo printing, litho-lamination, die-cutting and blanking, and coating. Using real-time data streams, Kiwiplan production, lo- gistics and sales management systems installed at NAPP Packaging plants track and deliver comprehensive infor- mation tailored to each user’s roles and responsibilities. NAPP’s new IT workflow platform is especially useful for scheduling and planning, as it can automatically create scenarios for new jobs based on similar, past work. The newly implemented Kiwiplan systems help keep the productivity going by automatically identifying alterna- tive manufacturing plans in response to machine down- time anywhere in a production plant. “Kiwiplan is honored to contribute to DS Smith’s suc- cessful, all-inclusive deployment in North America,” said Rodney McGee, Advantive Strategic Account Manager and former President of Kiwiplan. DS Smith will continue its investments to reduce waste and increase automation and BI capabilities in North America with an IT upgrade for its paper mill, recycling and forestry operations scheduled to begin in the second half of 2023.
