Case Study: Valley Extrusions improves profitability and efficiency with CyFrame ERP

With Cyframe Plastics-specific Erp You Don’t Have to Work On Intuition

Valley Extrusions, a custom plastic profile extruder, was using a generic, heavily customized ERP that was ill-suited for the plastics industry. The system could not provide timely, accurate data or generate the reports needed for strategic decision-making. Key challenges included a lack of real-time information, an inability to track crucial metrics like pounds per minute, and cumbersome manual processes for tasks like creating work orders. This forced the company to manage its operations on observation and intuition rather than facts.

CyFrame implemented its plastics-specific ERP for Profile Extrusion. The solution provided real-time, detailed data and automated reporting, which delivered immediate benefits. The time to generate 40 work orders was slashed from four hours to just minimum inventory levels prevented stock-outs for both finished goods and raw materials, ensuring on-time deliveries. Most importantly, CyFrame gave Valley Extrusions the ability to accurately determine the real profit margins on every production run, allowing for strategic pricing and troubleshooting that directly improved the bottom line.
