Learn how issues with reporting, inventory, and compliance became a thing of the past for Iron Rock Brewing Co.

All Breweries are Audited by the Government

According to Brian Hurley, before Brew Ninja, they had been facing several issues that made it difficult to run their brewery efficiently and were looking for a better way to do things.

In particular, some challenges Iron Rock was facing were that they were inventory management issues, as well as reporting and auditing challenges. Having to do all of these manually was proving to be both too time-intensive, and was resulting in inconsistencies or things missed from time to time.

On top of the above, Iron Rock also found themselves facing invoicing inconsistencies, and had a tough time with production planning as well as COGS analysis. Again, the issue largely came about from having to do all their work manually, and they realized that they needed a platform that could take some of the weight off of them in their day-to-day and help with accuracy.

In came Brew Ninja and gone went spending countless hours entering data in manually.

Being prepared for TTB or SFCR reporting saves heaps of time and money.

Since adopting Brew Ninja to help solve some of their challenges, Brian believes that "Brew Ninja is the solution we needed to address business process concerns".

This meant, they could fulfill their Canadian SFCR reports easily. If your brewery is in the USA, Brew Ninja also helps relieve the hassle of State, Local and Federal Reporting (like TTB reports).

Brew Ninja was also able to help Iron Rock compile an excise return report, which has helped to make reporting and compliance far less time consuming for Iron Rock. Brian even felt so strongly about Brew Ninja as to say, "The more the team adopts the features of the platform, the more value it adds to the organization".

Lastly, Brew Ninja was able to help create a rolling snapshot of WIP and inventory value on hand, which helped Brian and the team immensely. Iron Rock went from having issues in inventory management, invoicing, reporting, auditing, and more - to adopting Brew Ninja and having most of that taken care of. In short, this resulted in many headaches gone for the Labrador brewery.
