Questions?

We have answers! Here are some of the most common questions we hear from feed and pet food manufacturers evaluating nutritional formulation software. Topics include cost optimization, compliance, ERP integration, and sustainability reporting. 

How does feed and pet food formulation software work, and why is it important for my business?

Formulation software is designed to help animal feed and pet food manufacturers create and optimize recipes that meet nutritional targets, cost objectives, and regulatory standards. It streamlines R&D workflows, minimizes manual data entry and errors, and improves efficiency across purchasing, manufacturing, and quality control.

What formulation products does Datacor offer?

Datacor offers three formulation solutions tailored to the needs of animal feed and pet food manufacturers: Ara® Formulation, Brill® Formulation, and New Century™. Ara is our flagship platform and represents the future of formulation at Datacor.

Can Datacor software perform least-cost formulation and ingredient cost optimization?

Yes. Least-cost formulation is a core capability across Datacor’s platforms. It automatically calculates the most cost-effective blend of ingredients while ensuring that all nutritional targets, quality standards, and formulation constraints are met.

How does Datacor’s formulation software support regulatory compliance (e.g., AAFCO, FEDIAF)?

Datacor’s software includes built-in compliance checks, nutrient thresholds, and labeling support aligned with key regulatory frameworks such as AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials) and FEDIAF (European Pet Food Industry Federation). It generates ingredient declarations, audit documentation, and product registration data to help you stay compliant and audit-ready.

Can the software integrate with our existing ERP or production systems?

Yes. Datacor’s formulation solutions integrate smoothly with ERP, inventory, purchasing, and manufacturing systems. This connectivity ensures accurate data synchronization across your operation and eliminates manual re-entry, improving accuracy and decision-making speed.

Is the software easy to use? What kind of training and support does Datacor offer?

Yes. The user interface is intuitive and accessible, even for non-technical users. Datacor provides comprehensive onboarding, training materials, and ongoing support to ensure your team gets up to speed quickly and continues to receive value from the platform.

What reporting and analytics features are available?

Datacor’s software includes real-time reporting tools that provide visibility into formulation costs, ingredient usage, nutrient contributions, and version histories. These insights empower more informed business and nutritional decisions.

How does Datacor support sustainability reporting and eco-label initiatives?

Datacor integrates with the Sustell™ LCA platform from dsm-firmenich, allowing users to quantify and report the environmental footprint of their feed formulations. This includes carbon emissions, land and water usage, and other sustainability metrics. The integration supports eco-labeling efforts, aligns with ESG goals, and enhances transparency from formulation to farm to fork.
