Pilmico and Gold Coin group aims to be one of the leading food and agribusiness companies in Asia-Pacific.
Pilmico said that in line with their goal and the Aboitiz Group’s “Great Transformation,” it embarked on several projects that allow its team members to leverage technology and innovation.
One of these programs started in 2023 is “TechMate,” headed by Edward Lacap, Pilmico assistant vice president for robotics, automation and integration (RAI). The initiative, led by the RAI team, began with the goal of automating processes and optimizing operations across various departments.
Since the project began, 34 processes have been automated in 12 departments—ranging from production to finance and even the corporate and social responsibility teams. This has resulted in a significant reduction in time spent on routine, time-consuming, repetitive manual tasks and led to more accurate data.
