Case Study: LaBarge Inc. achieves real-time ERP access and faster reporting with Attunity Stream

A leading contract manufacturer leverages Attunity to save time, money and trees

LaBarge Inc., a contract manufacturer, faced challenges with its outdated mainframe ERP system. The system had difficult-to-use green screens and inefficient reporting processes that hindered real-time data access and competitive responsiveness. To modernize their data access without replacing their core ERP, they turned to vendor Attunity and its product Attunity Stream.

Attunity implemented a solution using Attunity Stream to capture changed data from the mainframe and replicate it in real-time to a Microsoft SQL Server. This provided LaBarge with browser-based, intuitive access to their data, enabling faster reporting and analytical capabilities like sorting and filtering. The results were significant: report generation time dropped from hours to seconds, proposal development was accelerated from weeks to a single day, and the company avoided the high cost and risk of a full ERP replacement, saving time and money while improving operational efficiency.
