挑战

Clips & Clamps Industries (CCI) was burdened by outdated and cumbersome legacy systems that were not user-friendly. The cost of upgrading its ERP and five other systems became prohibitively expensive, leading to inefficiencies and a lack of integration. This resulted in duplicate data entry and manual reconciliation, consuming valuable time and resources. The company recognized that maintaining and paying for regular upgrades to separate systems was not the most efficient use of its IT and financial resources. Additionally, the lack of integration among these systems forced the workforce to invest time in duplicate data entry, manual reconciliation of data and reports, and other inefficiencies.

解决方案

To address the challenges posed by its outdated systems, CCI implemented the Plex Manufacturing Cloud, a comprehensive and integrated cloud ERP solution. This single system replaced six separate systems previously used by CCI, consolidating various functions such as ERP, manufacturing execution systems (MES), quality management, customer relationship management (CRM), and shop floor integration. The Plex Manufacturing Cloud provides CCI with a unified view of operations, enabling real-time access to critical information through dashboards and reports. Employees can now leverage single points of data entry, eliminating duplication and manual reconciliation. The cloud-based nature of the solution ensures secure offsite data storage, reducing the need for costly servers and internal IT maintenance. Additionally, the system offers real-time software enhancements at no extra cost, eliminating the need for version upgrades.
