Case Study: Manufacturing Firm achieves early system separation and business-user managed integrations with Adeptia

Manufacturer Responds to Integration Ultimatum with Adeptia

A world-class manufacturer of refrigeration systems faced an ultimatum after being separated from its parent company: they had to detach their IT infrastructure and assume responsibility for all integrations within a fixed timeframe or face multimillion-dollar penalties. The company’s environment—multiple ERPs (Bond, Oracle, MAPICS) and varied partner file formats—relied on the parent’s webMethods platform, which required technical expertise the manufacturer did not have.

Adeptia delivered a “configure, no code” ESB that let business users configure and manage integrations while IT provided governance. Migrations were completed in about six months—months ahead of the deadline—with no partner downtime, enabling the firm to avoid penalties, reduce reliance on technical resources, and operate independently with a low‑maintenance integration platform.
