Gill Industries Case Study by Plex Manufacturing Cloud ERP

The Company: About Gill Industries

Gill Industries is a world-class supplier of advanced mechanisms and welded assemblies

The Situation: Centralize Operational Data

Relied on QuickBooks and spreadsheets to manage the business and production so information was dispersed or out of date.
Acquired a company and needed to standardize on a single ERP with the ability to centralize operational data.
New executive leadership wanted performance metrics across the entire company for all eight facilities.
Legacy ERP system required heavy IT resources and maintenance/upgrades with limited IT staff.

The Solution: Plex Manufacturing Cloud ERP

Standardized all 8 facilities in the U.S., Mexico, and Ireland on the Plex Manufacturing Cloud as its single source of the truth.
Streamlined over 600 differences in Plex settings down to 30 after the first phase of the standardization initiative.
Reallocated IT staff to more value-added business activities instead of maintaining systems and servers.
Records production and quality checks in real-time, enabling Gill industries to maintain high-quality standards.

The Results: Plex Manufacturing Cloud ERP Implementation Benefits

What made the Plex Manufacturing Cloud an attractive ERP system for Gill Industries to standardize on was the fact that it didn’t require a lot of IT heavy lifting to maintain.

“Plex’s cloud-based infrastructure has definitely alleviated the pressure on my team,” said Edler.

His team can now focus on more important long-term projects rather than on keeping servers up and running. Edler also thinks Plex offers an easier experience for users.
