Case Study: Tower Products protects margin from raw material spikes with Datacor ERP

Tower Products quantifies 7x ingredient cost spikes with Datacor

Tower Products, a manufacturer of pressroom chemistry products, faced a significant challenge when geopolitical events caused the price of a key raw material to spike by roughly seven times. They urgently needed to identify which of their finished products contained this ingredient and to what percentage in order to make accurate surcharge decisions and protect their margins. They turned to their vendor, Datacor, utilizing its ERP system as a single source of truth for their costing data.

Using Datacor's ERP, which natively connects bill-of-materials costing to real-time goods receipts, Tower Products could instantly trace the price exposure by product and SKU. This data-driven solution allowed them to make fast and accurate surcharge decisions without guesswork, protecting their margin on every order. The partnership with Datacor has continued to provide value, enabling the growing company to implement new solutions without adding headcount.
