ABSTRACT: This paper explores the integration of Standard Operating Procedures
(SOPs) using virtual reality and smart glasses technology in food
manufacturing. The study employs a thorough methodology, combining
observational insights to develop a comprehensive SOP. Implementation at
different firms resulted in significant improvements, reducing product waste
and enhancing overall efficiency. The use of virtual reality further augments
SOP adoption. The findings underscore SOPs’ transformative influence, offering
a tangible solution to challenges in the food production sector.
Recommendations include regular SOP reviews and ongoing training for sustained
success. Different firms exemplify SOPs as indispensable tools for operational
excellence.
