Case Study: Solaire Medical achieves 20% inventory reduction and strong revenue growth with ECI Software Solutions' Macola 10

Real-time Data Visibility Boosts Efficiency, Cuts Inventory 20% and Drives Revenue Growth

Solaire Medical, a Spring Lake, MI manufacturer of medical storage equipment, struggled with an archaic in-house system that left manufacturing and the shop floor without real‑time visibility, fragmented finance/sales/manufacturing systems, and poor inventory control. To address these challenges the company selected ECI Software Solutions’ Macola 10 ERP to gain tighter inventory and production control and improved reporting.

ECI Software Solutions implemented Macola 10 along with professional services workspaces, real‑time KPI views, automated order confirmations and shipping processes, and a custom commission calculation. Within nine months Solaire reduced inventory by about $200,000 (roughly 20%), lowered cost of goods sold, achieved dramatic year‑over‑year revenue growth, and cut sales commission calculation time by 94% (from ~8 hours to 30 minutes), while gaining faster, data‑driven decision making.
