Introduction
The Challenge
The Solution: Evora Software
Evora quickly became the software of choice for Valhalla Flower due to its robust support system and extensive feature set. The software’s ability to adapt to the company’s specific needs, including creating new features as required, was a significant advantage. The comprehensive coverage of operational aspects, such as inventory management, cleaning, calibrations, and SOP management, made Evora an invaluable tool in daily operations.
The implementation process, while initially challenging, became more streamlined as the team became familiar with the system. Evora’s support team played a crucial role in this transition, providing timely assistance and ensuring that the software was effectively integrated into Valhalla Flower’s workflows.
Daily Operations with Evora
Valhalla Flower integrates Evora into all aspects of its daily operations, from batch creation to plant maintenance, harvesting, processing, and compliance reporting. The software’s inventory management system allows the company to efficiently track and manage stocks, while the quality management features ensure that SOPs, cleaning schedules, and calibrations are meticulously maintained.
The ability to upload SOPs and manage SDSs within Evora has enhanced operational efficiency, reducing the time and effort required to manage these critical documents. Additionally, Evora’s robust reporting features have simplified monthly reporting processes, allowing for accurate, one-click submissions that ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
Key Features and Benefits
Evora’s extensive feature set stands out in several key areas. The software’s ability to manage and track SOPs, cleaning, and calibrations has been particularly beneficial for maintaining regulatory compliance. The recent introduction of product costing is expected to provide further insights into operational costs, helping Valhalla Flower optimize its production processes and improve financial oversight.
The intuitive layout and user-friendly design of Evora have also made it easier for team members, especially those with less experience in software systems, to navigate and utilize the platform effectively. This ease of use, combined with the comprehensive support from Evora’s team, has made the software an essential part of Valhalla Flower’s operations.
Reporting and Compliance
One of the most significant advantages of using Evora has been the improvement in compliance and reporting. The software’s ability to automate and simplify the reporting process has reduced the risk of errors and increased confidence in the accuracy of reports. The B300 report for the CRA, for example, can now be generated with a single click, ensuring that all necessary data is captured and reported correctly.
The confidence in Evora’s reporting capabilities has also enhanced the company’s ability to track and manage compliance-related activities, from start to finish, across all batches.
Future Initiatives
As Valhalla Flower looks to the future, the company plans to expand its operations by developing new strains and optimizing its production processes. The ability to track the cost of growing each strain and analyze yields will be crucial in this expansion. Additionally, the shipping and sales tracking features of Evora will be invaluable as the company expands its operations under a Micro license, allowing for easier management of shipments between sites.
Valhalla Flower views Evora as a long-term partner in its growth, with no plans to switch software providers. The software’s flexibility, comprehensive feature set, and exceptional support make it a critical tool in achieving the company’s future goals.
