“We brought our dissolved oxygen spec to 40 ppb — something our previous co-packer told us was physically impossible. Bottleline hit it on the third trial run and held it for 18 months of production.”
“Their batch records survived an unannounced FDA inspection without a single 483 observation. That's not luck — that's a quality system that's been stress-tested. I sleep better knowing our co-man has 21 CFR Part 11 MES.”
“We scaled from 800 cases per week at a co-packer to running our own 4-SKU line at 420 CPM in seven months. The changeover documentation they handed us was ready to go into our own SOP library on day one.”
“Torque Cpk of 1.47 across a six-month production window. I've audited 30+ co-manufacturers and I've never seen closure data that clean. It's not a talking point — they showed me the SPC charts on the first call.”
“Our recall simulation came in at 2 hours 47 minutes — full lot traceability, forward and back. The SQF auditor noted it as a best practice. That capability came directly from the systems Bottleline built when we were still a co-pack customer.”
Two ways to find out. Both give you genuine intelligence you can use on the floor tomorrow.
