A Deacom Case Study
Synalloy Corporation, a metals and specialty chemicals company headquartered in Richmond, VA with operations across several states and roughly $138.6M in annual revenue, faced a fragmented IT landscape of disparate ERP systems that limited visibility and made acquisitions costly and complex. The company needed an agile, standardized ERP to support its shared‑services model and meet requirements such as consolidated accounting, SOX compliance, multiple production processes, and customer credit management.
In August 2008 Synalloy implemented Deacom ERP and went live in seven months, migrating all business units to a single platform. Native functionality addressed its unique needs so changes live in the core code (eliminating manual post‑upgrade updates), and hosting on virtual private servers enabled rapid scalability. The outcome was a centralized, more visible and manageable operations platform that simplifies upgrades, speeds capacity changes, and better supports acquisition‑driven growth.
