For distillery managers
Every mash, run and cask recorded once, on the floor
Provenate replaces run sheets with records your operators fill in as the work happens, from grist to vatting. Strength and LPA calculate themselves, every cask carries its full history, and the reports you used to build by hand are one click away.
Sound familiar?
Run sheets on paper, typed up at the end of the shift.
Yields worked out after the run, when it's too late to act.
Half a day every month spent pulling reports together.

FAQ
Questions from distillery managers
Do operators still need paper run sheets?
No. Operators record mash, wash and spirit run data in Provenate as they work, so there is no clipboard to type up at the end of the shift.
Does Provenate calculate LPA and spirit yield?
Yes. Strength and LPA calculate themselves from the charges, cuts and receiver dips you record, and production reports summarise mashes, distillations and spirit yields with trends over time.
Can we turn our SOPs into checklists?
Yes. SOPs become checklists operators tick off on shift, recorded against the production step they belong to, so the evidence is there when the auditor arrives.
Can I find a cask without walking the warehouse?
Yes. Every fill records the cask's warehouse position, and the 3D cask view shows any cask's location, status and fill level without walking the racks.
Record it once on the floor. Every report follows.
