Aerospace component supplier required Epicor Kinetic to modernize production planning, inventory, and finance across its plants.
Overview
Aerospace component supplier required Epicor Kinetic to modernize production planning, inventory, and finance across its plants.
The Challenge
The manufacturer’s legacy ERP system was unable to support modern production planning or inventory management. Data silos limited real-time visibility into supply chain performance, while compliance with stringent aerospace standards demanded stronger traceability and audit readiness than the current system could provide.
The Solution
Provided Epicor functional consultants for Production, Supply Chain, and Finance.
Designed integrations with MES for real-time data.
Supported testing and change management with shop-floor teams.
Key Objectives
Improve production scheduling and forecasting.
Enhance compliance and traceability.
Reduce delays in order fulfillment.
Expected Outcomes
Higher production throughput.
Reduced downtime and inventory bottlenecks.
Stronger compliance and audit capability.
Project Timeline
12 months, fast-track implementation.
Process
Pilot rollout in one plant.
Expanded across regional facilities.
Continuous improvement cycles post go-live.
Outcome
Epicor Kinetic deployed across 6 sites. Production downtime reduced by 15%, order fulfillment accuracy increased by 20%, and compliance reporting time reduced by 35%.
