From Production Bottlenecks to Smart Manufacturing

Context

A mid-sized manufacturer had been operating with outdated ERP systems and paper-based workflows. As demand increased, inefficiencies started affecting delivery timelines and margins. Management knew they needed a digital transformation to stay competitive, from smarter production tracking to better decision-making tools.

Challenges faced by clients

Operational Bottlenecks

Like many mid-sized manufacturers, this company found that its growth exposed cracks in its foundation. What had worked when they were small was now causing bottlenecks. Their systems couldn't keep up with rising demand, their teams were slowed down by manual processes, and decision-making was reactive instead of proactive. To fix this, they needed a mix of smarter infrastructure and automation.

Key Challenges Faced:

  • Manual production scheduling was causing delays
  • Inventory mismatches leading to material shortages
  • Disconnected legacy ERP was unable to provide real-time insights
  • High error rates in manual data entry
  • Downtime during peak production runs
  • Limited visibility into equipment performance
  • Teams were spending hours reconciling reports across systems
