Case Study: Grant Industries achieves major ROI with AIM Computer Solutions

Fully Integrated Supply Chain Software allows Automotive Supplier to Achieve Major ROI

Grant Industries, an automotive supplier, faced the challenge of needing to manage complex and varied EDI, barcoding, and traceability requirements from its OEM customers like General Motors and Ford. They sought a fully integrated supply chain software package to handle these demands and replace their outdated custom systems. They partnered with vendor AIM Computer Solutions to implement the AIM Vision software suite.

The solution from AIM Computer Solutions included integrated EDI, a Manufacturing Execution System for lot traceability, and Capacity Requirements Planning (CRP) for automated scheduling. This implementation delivered significant results, including complete compliance with all customer requirements and major operational efficiencies. The measurable impact was a major ROI, most notably the elimination of two scheduling positions over two years due to the automation provided by AIM's CRP application.
