Infor ERP Express (VISUAL) Case Study

A metal stamping and assembly firm in the Midwestern U.S. was challenged with managing frequent and aggressive engineering changes due to rapid prototyping work. The company needed to implement a proven solution that enables them to forecast workload and create a precise manufacturing plan based on available resources; as well as better manage inventory to reduce shortages.

The manufacturer implemented an Infor ERP Express (VISUAL) solution including time and attendance. The results:

• Implementation complete in 6 months
• Visibility into impacts of schedule changes
• Intergrated labor reporting and payroll saves time and reduces mistakes
• Reduced inventory cost
