Case Study: TRB (Tokai Rika UK) speeds up production planning and reduces overheads with CrescentOne's Glovia ERP

Glovia Helps Speed Up Production Planning

TRB, a UK-based subsidiary of Tokai Rika that supplies major automakers, needed to maintain precision mass production while cutting costs and improving supply-chain responsiveness. Faced with the requirement to integrate Kanban-driven shop-floor control with its ERP, TRB chose CrescentOne and its Kanban-integrated ERP solution to streamline production planning and delivery across its St. Asaph facility.

CrescentOne implemented a tightly integrated Kanban and ERP environment (including MPS/MRP, stock control and EDI links) that imports live shop-floor data hourly and supports planning to one day’s finished-goods stock. The result was faster, more accurate production planning, quicker ad-hoc reporting, reduced paperwork, and — as TRB reports — lower overheads and increased profit margins thanks to CrescentOne’s solution.
