Case Study: Blast Motion achieves 50% reduction in shipping delays and 75% reduction in manufacturing errors with Arena Solutions

Blast Motion Reduced Product Errors and Delays

Blast Motion develops personalized motion-capture sensors and apps that help athletes and coaches train smarter by syncing real-time motion metrics with video. As the company scaled its Carlsbad manufacturing and worked with globally dispersed vendors, paper-based ECOs, Excel spreadsheets, and poor visibility led to miscommunication, version-control problems, product errors, and launch delays.

By adopting Arena’s PLM and change-control processes, Blast Motion created centralized collaboration and real-time visibility across engineering, manufacturing, and suppliers. The solution eliminated design confusion, halved shipping delays, reduced manufacturing errors by 75%, and improved synchronization and support for the company’s distributed teams.
