With a strong focus on transparency, efficiency and shared value, the facility is designed to process up to 1,500 cattle per day, provide over 850 jobs, and contribute more than $1.2 billion annually to the Nebraska economy. <\/p>\nThis operation sets a new standard in community-driven, modern beef<br \/>\nprocessing in the United States.\n<figure itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emydex.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/ex-sustainable-beef-port.jpg\" alt=\"ex-sustainable-beef\" height=\"300\" width=\"400\" title=\"ex-sustainable-beef-port\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>\n\n\t<h4>&#8220;For processing companies,<br \/>\nthere&#8217;s only one choice: Emydex.&#8221;<\/h4>\n<p><em>Kris Smith &#8211; Manager Sustainable Beef<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" data-mfp-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9RqvloFnixE\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n<h2>\n\t\t\tChallenge\t<\/h2>\n\t<ul>\n<li>Difficulty finding a system capable of managing livestock purchasing,payments, and tracking live animals through the facility<\/li>\n<li>Operations were starting from scratch in a newly built plant with no existing standard procedures<\/li>\n<li>Most of the workforce had not yet been hired during early implementation stages<\/li>\n<li>Uncertainty around hardware locations and system touchpoints until late in the project<\/li>\n<li>Need to comply with US-specific regulations such as the Packers and Stockyards Act and USDA grading<\/li>\n<li>Requirement for an end-to-end integrated solution that could support a widerange of plant processes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>\n\t\t\tSolution\t<\/h2>\n\tEmydex partnered closely with Sustainable Beef to design and implement a fully integrated MES and EQMS software solution tailored to the needs of a new and<br \/>\nrapidly evolving plant.\n<p>This included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Remote workshops to map out the expected future-state of operations<\/li>\n<li>On-site assessments to define key touchpoints and processes<\/li>\n<li>Incorporation of U.S. regulatory practices into the platform<\/li>\n<li>Custom system landscape to integrate with third-party solutions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Our implementation covered every detail, from kill line traceability to plant-floor device integration, delivering full process visibility and real-time control.<\/p>\n<h2>\n\t\t\tOutcome\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>The successful go-live in June 2025 marked a major milestone in our partnership.
