A Advanced Systems Concepts, Inc. Case Study
PrimeSource, one of North America’s largest building materials distributors and the world’s largest fastener purveyor, faced legacy ERP limits and a mix of disparate systems as it migrated to SAP and a Windows-centric environment. The IT team needed enterprise-wide automation for SAP BusinessObjects Data Services (BODS), SAP NetWeaver processes, and Windows scheduling, and selected ActiveBatch Workload Automation and Job Scheduling from Advanced Systems Concepts, Inc. to meet those requirements.
Advanced Systems Concepts, Inc. deployed ActiveBatch to orchestrate end-to-end workflows across SAP ECC/NetWeaver, BODS, EDI invoicing, and non‑SAP systems using the Jobs Library, BODS extension, web services and built‑in change management. The solution cut a key data‑warehouse process from 9.5 hours to 1 hour, eliminated roughly 20 hours/week of manual invoicing work, improved billing times (reducing revenue loss and penalties), consolidated monitoring, and enabled automated restarts and faster issue detection—delivering measurable reliability and productivity gains for PrimeSource.
