A Aptean Case Study
Adams Group, a fourth‑generation California food and beverage company with businesses in grain, vegetable oils, trucking and seed, had outgrown a patchwork, home‑grown IT system. The disconnected components could not keep pace with growth, produced slow and unreliable costing and reporting, and prevented the company from running processes on a single, modern platform.
Adams implemented Aptean Food & Beverage ERP (bcFood Edition) on Microsoft Dynamics NAV to replace fragmented systems and add order management, production control, lot tracking and a certified scale interface. The unified solution reduced support needs as users became self-sufficient, delivered real‑time, trustworthy data and faster costing, enabled weekly production reviews and improved field communication via tablets—giving Adams immediate operational visibility and a platform that will scale with future automation and grower-facing tools.
