Remy International Inc. 

Location: Pendleton, Indiana USA

Industry: Automotive

Company Description: Remy International is a leading manufacturer and remanufacturer in the automotive, heavy duty, and transportation industry, producing starters, alternators and electrical components for worldwide distribution.

Solution: Eagle RF Express™ for QAD Enterprise Applications

Results: Documented savings of $50,000 (Containerized Shipping), $90,000 (manpower reductions through the use of automated handheld material and picking processes in the past year) and over $600,000 in ANNUAL savings by consolidating distribution centers (Eagle created a virtual cross-dock between two facilities; materials transferred between these facilities are 100% controlled which made it possible to reduce transit times and corresponding inventory).

“Remy International’s partnership with QAD and Eagle, and our global implementations of Eagle RF Express for QAD Enterprise Applications, has been the single most effective and efficient use of IT and material management resources in the past decade. Remy no longer considers automated data collection a strategic advantage…It is a strategic necessity and has resulted in very significant savings for Remy."

Sugar Foods Corporation

Location: New York, New York USA

Industry: Food & Beverage

Company Description: Sugar Foods is the #1 foodservice distributor of almonds, zero calorie sweeteners, turbinado sugar, powdered non-dairy creamer, croutons and crunchy salad toppings. While the name Sugar Foods may not be familiar, the names of their products are, including FRESH GOURMET and N’JOY brands.

Solution: Eagle RF Express™ for QAD Enterprise Applications

Results:  Sugar Foods required a solution that could deliver “99% inventory accuracy – or better.” And they got that and more. Prior to the implementation of the Eagle-QAD solution, the company logged raw materials manually. Today they track all raw materials by location and Pallet ID. This is a major step toward greater control and inventory visibility.
