Comprehensive Functionality, Manufacturing Expertise Make EnterpriseIQ Perfect Fit PASO ROBLES, Calif., July 29
PASO ROBLES, Calif., July 29 /PRNewswire/ -- IQMS, a leader in the design
and development of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, today
announced that Plastics Molding Technology, Inc. (PMT), a leading custom
insert molding company, has implemented its Enterprise IQ LE software package.
PMT completed the implementation in five months and is now better equipped to
drive lean, efficient operations across its total supply chain. PMT serves the
electronic, medical, automotive and consumer appliance industries. The company
selected EnterpriseIQ because it delivers comprehensive functionality
specifically designed to keep plastics manufacturing lean.
"As part of PMT's commitment to quality, we operate with a philosophy of
continuous improvement," said Chuck Sholtis, chief executive officer at PMT.
"Rapid growth was taxing our previous ERP system, creating internal
communication issues and hampering our lean efforts. We needed a robust yet
affordable ERP solution that could manage our accounting and manufacturing
requirements while still supporting our continued growth. Systems like
EnterpriseIQ can help U.S. manufacturers compete worldwide. In fact, we are
proud that we export product to China and Mexico. Being a cost effective
supplier is increasingly important in the global marketplace, so this
investment will yield benefits far into the future. EnterpriseIQ provides the
perfect fit because it addresses issues specific to plastic manufacturing such
as on-time delivery, order accuracy, quality and pricing, even across multiple
cavitations, yet the system is scalable so we can cost-effectively manage our
long-term growth and success."
PMT previously used four separate systems to manage its enterprise
operations: a packaged ERP solution for manufacturing; a complex, home-grown,
spreadsheet-based system for accounting; a stand-alone system for estimating;
and another stand-alone system for production monitoring. PMT has the ideal
single-source, single-database system for managing a streamlined manufacturing
process utilizing the EnterpriseIQ LE system and using supporting modules like
RealTime Machine Monitoring for instant and accurate production data, ShopData
a visual front-end to plant floor performance and manufacturing management,
and the wireless Warehouse Management System (WMS) to simplify inventory
management.
"Particularly in today's demanding economy, manufacturers need to stay
focused on lean manufacturing principles and constantly look for a competitive
edge," explains Randy Flamm, president and founder of IQMS. "In order to
remain successful, companies like PMT must optimize operations for efficiency
and quality. IQMS is committed to helping companies like PMT succeed in their
ever-changing and complex industry by providing advanced and feature-rich
solutions designed specifically for manufacturers."
