# Manufacturing and agribusiness software development

We add development teams and build custom software for manufacturing plants and agribusiness companies: production systems, integrations and senior engineers who join your teams.

## What manufacturing needs from software today

Manufacturing and agriculture are still Latin America's productive core: the region is the world's largest net food exporter, and manufacturing accounts for more than a tenth of its GDP. Much of that output runs through plants working against calendars that leave no room for delays.

With tight margins, efficiency is won or lost inside the plant. Production systems have usually grown piece by piece, and a system that fails or data that arrives late turns into lost product, especially in peak season.

- 18% of the world's agri-food exports come from Latin America, the largest net food-exporting region. (IDB — Latin America's role in global food security, https://www.iadb.org/es/blog/comercio-e-inversion/el-papel-de-america-latina-en-la-seguridad-alimentaria-global-comercio-inversiones-y-0)
- 13% of Latin America's GDP comes from manufacturing. (World Bank, via CEHEAL–UBA (2025), https://ceheal.economicas.uba.ar/wp-content/uploads/DT-N%C2%B0-6.-Coyuntura-industrial-latinoamericana.-1.pdf)
- 12% of the food the region produces is lost between harvest and retail. (FAO — The State of Food and Agriculture 2019, https://news.un.org/es/story/2019/10/1463871)

## How we help manufacturing and agribusiness

- **Plant and production systems**: We evolve and stabilize the systems that run production, with priorities planned around each season's calendar.
- **Senior engineers who join your teams**: Full-time developers who join your squads within weeks and keep the project's knowledge in place over time.
- **Integrations and operational data**: We connect plant, management and sales systems so production data reaches the people who make decisions.
- **Peak-season support**: Audits, support and continuous improvements so the system is stable when it's needed most.

## What we've built for this industry

- [Bayer](https://www.tupaca.com/en/success-stories/bayer): From 2018 to 2022, we embedded a team of up to five senior backend developers in Bayer's engineering organization, working full-time on global-scale projects.
- [Delta Plus Argentina](https://www.tupaca.com/en/success-stories/delta-plus): We built an AI Opportunity Map for the finance and administration team at Delta Plus Argentina, part of a global maker of workplace safety equipment, with proposals ranked by impact and cost.
- [Grupo Palenque](https://www.tupaca.com/en/success-stories/grupo-palenque): We provided a dedicated team to evolve and stabilize the ERP-style system that runs Grupo Palenque's production plant — a Mexican mango grower and exporter — planning the work around its peak production dates.
- [Wama](https://www.tupaca.com/en/success-stories/wama): We built a production management system for Wama, a Mexican sportswear uniform manufacturer, that tracks every order in real time. With AI across the whole process, we delivered it 10x faster than we could have without it.
- [Industrias FMR](https://www.tupaca.com/en/success-stories/industrias-fmr): We used AI to analyze how Industrias FMR, an Argentine metalworking company, manages its materials, and delivered a proof of concept that generates bills of materials straight from its drawings.
