Case Study: Planet Eclipse achieves improved cost control and streamlined manufacturing with De Facto Software

Planet Eclipse - Customer Case Study

Planet Eclipse, founded in 1994, designs and manufactures high‑end paintball equipment for professional teams in the UK and US. Rapid growth and global sourcing left the company struggling with inaccurate stock levels, complex landed costs from multiple suppliers and units of measure, and the need to run UK and US accounting structures alongside manufacturing and CRM requirements.

De Facto implemented its ERP—including landed‑costs handling, automatic unit conversions, flexible dual‑structure financials, production planning and CRM—so Planet Eclipse can manage import costs, plan custom production (including colour sorting) and monitor component pricing. The result was tighter cost control, clearer product costing and margins, improved productivity and inventory accuracy, and expansion into a larger warehouse.
