Unlocking €800K in Savings with Data-Driven Manufacturing

Rosie & Jim, a leading Irish chicken producer, was struggling with fragmented data and rising costs. Rubik built a bespoke data warehouse that unlocked over €800K in savings and transformed how the business makes decisions.

About Rosie & Jim Chicken Products

Rosie & Jim is a leading Irish producer of premium-quality, fully cooked chicken products, specialising in gluten-free and hand-prepared options. Founded in 1997, the company is known for its commitment to high-quality ingredients, innovation, and meeting the evolving demands of the food industry. Rosie & Jim supplies retailers, foodservice providers, and wholesalers across Ireland and beyond.

The Challenge

Rosie & Jim faced mounting pressure from increasing raw material costs, heightened competition, and evolving regulatory requirements. While committed to delivering high-quality products efficiently, they struggled with fragmented data spread across multiple disconnected systems.

Without a central source of truth, gaining visibility into key financial and operational metrics was challenging, leading to inefficiencies in cost tracking and production optimisation. Recognising the need for a more data-driven approach, they sought a solution that would streamline operations, improve cost analysis, and enhance decision-making.

The Solution

Rubik Technologies developed a bespoke data warehouse that consolidated data from Rosie & Jim's disparate systems into a single, integrated platform — providing their finance and operations teams with real-time access to critical business insights. By centralising information from finance, production, and supply chain systems, Rubik eliminated data silos and created a single source of truth for decision-making.

To enhance operational efficiency further, Rubik augmented the legacy technology infrastructure with low-code technology, enabling seamless data capture and automation. This allowed Rosie & Jim to streamline manual processes, ensuring that key business data — such as production costs, inventory levels, and supplier performance — was accurately recorded and easily accessible.

The Results

With a unified data infrastructure in place, Rosie & Jim gained full visibility into their cost structures, leading to smarter financial decisions and improved operational efficiency. The insights derived from the data warehouse helped the company identify over €800K in savings, significantly boosting profitability.

Manual reporting efforts were drastically reduced, freeing up time for high-value strategic activities. With enhanced data-driven decision-making, Rosie & Jim is now better equipped to navigate industry challenges while maintaining its reputation for quality and efficiency — delivering an 83% reduction in manual effort and a 4.3× return on investment.
