Solarsoft a perfect fit for Able Manufacturing's complex business environment
Able Manufacturing supplies heavy equipment OEMs with one-of-a-kind large assemblies and engineered systems. Able leverages Solarsoft’s integration and real-time data visibility to order components and schedule production directly from each BOM as it is received from the customer, whether via EDI or through the engineering department.
Able Manufacturing has evolved from a manufacturer of bolt-on
truck sleepers into a business supplying product for specialty
truck, marine, military, mass transit, wind energy and even nuclear
and coal-powered energy production applications.
A few years into that evolution, decision makers at Able
Manufacturing realized that the company's legacy ERP application,
with its high degree of customization and bolt-on functionality,
could not support the range of essential capabilities needed
without extensive upgrades.
With Solarsoft, Able Manufacturing has realized:
- Inventory accuracy increased from 85% to 98%
- Reduced annual physical inventories from 4 to 1
- Dramatic reduction in inventory to virtually JIT levels
- Integrated EDI, shipping, time and attendance, MRP and
bar-coding yield real-time data
Becoming the highly diversified business Able Manufacturing is
now required modernizing and extending its ERP capabilities.
Solarsoft fit the bill perfectly.
