Myco is an innovative company from Bzenec in the Czech Republic that has impressed the world with a product made from mushrooms – sustainable packaging material for industry. The idea has earned it several major awards and the interest of investors who backed its growth. Rapid growth brought the need for systems that would bring order to both production and sales.

Making sustainable packaging

Understanding the production process was the key to designing the system well. Each step of the line needed a different solution.

The challenge

Myco is a fast-growing, investor-backed company. At its pace of growth it needed a system that would bring all its tools under one roof, put production in order and make it possible to run the whole company efficiently.

Replace scattered tools with one system

The company used a range of tools and apps that didn’t talk to each other. Everything needed to come together under one roof.

Put production in order

As output grew, production had to be managed systematically, materials recorded and processes tracked in real time.

Sales and invoicing

They needed a simple way to manage customers, orders and invoices – clear and available to the whole team.

Attendance tracking for staff

With more than ten employees, they needed simple but reliable attendance records with easy exports.

Our solution

We built a connected ERP and WMS solution that covers the whole business – from the warehouse and production to sales and HR.

Monitoring and quality

The system tracks warehouse conditions and evaluates production quality – essential for a mushroom-based bio-material. Temperature and humidity sensors report deviations in real time and the system alerts the operators automatically.

  • Data from temperature and humidity sensors evaluated
  • Reject rates recorded and evaluated
  • Quality overview of production batches
  • Alerts when limits are exceeded

Goods-in and material management

Every material movement recorded, from goods-in to picking. Each item is tracked from the moment it enters the warehouse until it goes to production.

  • Receiving, put-away and location assignment with scanners
  • Contactless label printing with an RFID wristband
  • Full history of every stock movement
  • Batch tracking from goods-in to production

Picking and dispatch

Finished products leave the warehouse smoothly, linked to the sales system. You can see what went where and when.

  • Picking of finished products
  • Shipments prepared for dispatch
  • Dispatched batches recorded
  • Linked to the sales system

Finance and sales

A complete view of the company’s finances, simple customer and order management, and a connection to the bank and accounting.

  • CRM for managing customers and orders
  • Invoicing with exports for the accountant
  • Invoices imported automatically from email
  • Connected to the company’s bank account
  • Dashboard with financial results and charts

Operations and HR

Everything for running the company day to day – from attendance and newsletters to employee management.

  • Attendance for the production site and the offices
  • Physical attendance terminal + mobile access
  • Management and records of all employees
  • Simple newsletter system

Analysis and solution design

Before we configured anything, we took the time to get to know the company and its processes in detail. The first solution design grew out of that.

  • In-depth audit of existing processes
  • Design of a minimum viable product (MVP)
  • Key areas prioritised
  • Fast roll-out of the core system

Iteration and feedback from the floor

Only real use showed that some processes didn’t work the way they sounded on paper. Thanks to the modular system, recalibrating them took hours, not weeks.

  • Ongoing testing in live operation
  • Processes recalibrated quickly, with no downtime
  • Regular consultations and improvements
  • The system grows with the company

We’ve been working with FROGGATE for quite some time now. I value their flexibility and the modularity of the system. It’s neither a limited off-the-shelf box, nor do we have to wait for expensive code to be developed. Thanks to the training, I can configure a lot of things myself, and when I’m not sure, the FROGGATE team is always quick to help.
