Case studies of Metals and Engineering MRP/ERP/CRM software users

Manufacturers of the Chafo burner

123insight is the cheapest employee we have in the building. To add five production facilities, four warehouses and 800-900% growth with the same resources speaks for itself.

After receiving investment Eco-Burner knew that they had to replace their Excel spreadsheets and Sage 50 accounts software if they were to achieve their desired growth. Since the four years after installing 123insight in 2012 the company has seen an 800% increase in turnover without the need for any more admin staff, and they've created their own shop floor user interface, which knits tightly in with 123insight using the SDK. They're also benefiting from CRM+ and Access Dimensions Accounts, along with automatic report generation through Crystal Reports.

After going live we haven’t looked back. It runs and does its job, and doesn’t really need much support or input. It’s a fantastic system.

The return on investment is very short for the level of investment we made. It’s within the first few months of use - almost instantaneous.

Refcool previously relied on a series of Excel spreadsheets and paper-based systems. Stock was inaccurate, which had a knock on effect with lead times, and getting reliable information was problematic and time-consuming. After implementing 123insight in 2012 the company saw an increase in turnover with the same number of admin staff and now run the software across two locations. They employed staff from a previous 123insight user, with some having over 15 years of experience with the software. CRM+ is also the backbone of their sales and quality accreditation management.

I could confidently say that we could triple or quadruple our turnover without employing any more admin staff to look after stock, purchase orders, etc.

Water Tecnik Ltd, based in Camlough, Northern Ireland designs and manufactures industrial effluent treatment systems. They were struggling with their manual, paper-based systems, but always intended to implement an MRP system shortly after the business was founded. After attending a 123insight Evaluation workshop the company decided to move ahead, going live within one month. Their implementation was so successful that they were joint winners in the local council Excellence in Manufacturing awards.
