Integrating
Island Systems for a Fully Integrated Solution
KINNELON,
N.J.—(BusinessWire)—August 20, 2001—Cleveland, Ohio-based
Morrison Products, Inc.
chose Eagle Consulting's RF Express™ for QAD MFG/PRO® to help them
eliminate stranded "island" systems, data duplication and the
cost and accuracy problems surrounding manual data entry.
According to
Anne Santamaria, ERP coordinator at Morrison Products, fully integrating
and updating their systems was high on their list of goals.
Morrison went
about its decision-making process carefully, choosing a real-time
automated data collection solution designed specifically to work with
their chosen enterprise solution. “We
felt this approach would give us the highest level of assurance that
things would integrate well,” says Santamaria.
A manufacturer
of air-moving equipment, Morrison updated and integrated their HR, data
collection, shipping, the “whole works” as Santamaria says.
This was a large undertaking with its share of challenges, but
choosing RCM Technologies—an implementation provider who is a partner
with Eagle and QAD—helped to ensure success.
According to Santamaria, RCM and Eagle Consulting earned high
marks, noting that, “They really came through for us.”
A few months
after implementation, Santamaria said, “RF Express has really helped
with interactions between the manufacturing areas of our four plants
across the country.”
No longer are phone calls needed to check inventory and shipping
status. This information is
just keystrokes away. Eagle’s
RF Express for QAD MFG/PRO has facilitated data collection and reporting
that achieves real-time information access.
“We also wanted to have item numbers and quantities bar coded to
reduce errors,” said Santamaria, “Now, not only do we have real-time
information, but it’s more accurate.”
Bill Paone,
executive vice-president, Eagle Consulting and Development, says, “RF
Express for MFG/PRO was specifically designed for QAD MFG/PRO, meeting
Morrison’s goal of access to accurate, real-time information with full
system integration.”
