Though its a common term, understanding and applying it is still unclear to the food industry specifically what transparency means, why to pursue it, what it involves, or how to improve it (http://www.streetdirectory.com, 2017). The realities of todays competitive food manufacturing industry, along with pressure from stakeholders, require business leaders to be more aggressive and creative with cost reduction initiatives (corepractice.com, 2017). This led to the development of a system that will enable food production line to automate inventory and product production monitoring. This will enable transparencies in terms of viewing available raw materials vis-á-vis the production order. This paper will provide architecture of a food manufacturing system that could lead to transparencies.
