Bottling Excellence at Coca-Cola Scale

Whether across multiple plants or even within a single facility, execution varies. Different shifts, teams, and locations develop their own ways of working—making it difficult to maintain Coca-Cola’s global standards for quality, safety, and performance. Poka creates a single source of truth for operations, standardizing work instructions, processes, and best practices, accessible instantly on the shop floor. Every operator follows the same playbook, no matter the shift or site.

High turnover, seasonal hiring, and evolving workforce expectations make onboarding a constant challenge. At the same time, experienced operators hold critical knowledge that isn’t always documented. Poka transforms frontline knowledge into digital, on-the-job training, combining videos, work instructions, and skills tracking. New hires ramp faster, while experienced workers contribute to a continuously growing knowledge base.

In bottling environments, even minor stops or delays can quickly impact throughput, fill rates, and delivery commitments. When issues occur, slow communication or troubleshooting increases downtime. Poka enables real-time issue reporting, collaboration, and troubleshooting, connecting operators, maintenance, and supervisors instantly so problems are resolved faster and knowledge is captured for future prevention.

Data exists everywhere - MES, ERP, spreadsheets, but frontline execution is often disconnected from leadership visibility. This makes it difficult to identify trends, enforce standards, and scale improvements. Poka bridges the gap with real-time visibility into operations, skills, and issues, empowering both frontline teams and leadership with actionable insights to drive continuous improvement.
