Case Study: johnnie-O achieves agility, scalability and real-time inventory visibility with Aptean Industrial Manufacturing ERP

johnnie-O - Customer Case Study

johnnie-O, a branded lifestyle apparel company, struggled with misaligned software—relying on a WMS, QuickBooks and manual spreadsheets—that limited inventory visibility (ATS/WIP), made project tracking and production planning difficult, and constrained growth. After an RFP the company chose Aptean Apparel ERP Full Circle Edition for a fashion-specific ERP with out-of-the-box workflows and hands-on support from Aptean’s Customer Success team.

Aptean implemented its Apparel ERP to provide real-time visibility into inventory and orders, automate special-order invoicing, and streamline warehouse operations—helping johnnie-O account for roughly one million units during a warehouse move. The result was greater agility and scalability: reduced order processing costs, improved customer experience (especially in peak seasons), earlier shipping that pulled forward sales, and the ability to expand licensed partnerships (MLB, NCAA) as johnnie-O scaled.
