Nestlé: Revolutionizing Training and Efficiency with Poka Skills Management
With Poka, we can quantify training and make data-driven decisions that directly impact operations.
Nothing Better, on Every Shift
Build Brown-Forman Standards For Generations To Come
Brown-Forman has been built on craft, consistency, and a promise of “Nothing Better in the Market.” As teams evolve and operations stay global, protecting that know-how while keeping work executed the right way gets harder. Poka can help Brown-Forman capture frontline expertise, standardize SOPs across sites, and build safer, more efficient routines that hold up shift to shift.

How Poka Can Support Brown Forman
Protect distilling know-how through change
If roles shift or experienced teammates move on, critical “how we do it here” knowledge may get harder to pass down across critical processes like barrel quality expectations, receiving/inspection, fill protocols, and maturation readiness. Poka could help capture OJT, visuals, and qualification paths to keep ramp-ups consistent.
Standard work from still to bottle
Across a multi-site footprint, SOPs for CIP, changeovers, quality checks (proof/ABV), filtration, blending, bottling, labeling, and case packing can drift over time. Poka could provide a central, controlled SOP library with local versioning, guided steps, and acknowledgement trails.
Safety routines embedded in the work
Distilling environments can involve hot surfaces, steam, CO₂, confined spaces, and chemical handling during CIP/sanitation. If incident/near-miss data exists, Poka could help close the loop by embedding safety steps into procedures, digitizing shift checks, and turning learnings into updated standards that teams actually use.
More throughput by reducing variation
In a cost-discipline environment, improvements may come from fewer repeats and smoother execution, including quicker startup times, fewer barrel/line changeovers, fewer quality holds, less rework at fillers/cappers/labelers, and faster troubleshooting. Poka could guide the best-known methods and surface bottlenecks through frontline insights.
