Case Study: Big Ass Fans achieves scalable growth and supply-chain cost savings with Epicor ERP

Epicor ERP provides Big Ass Solutions equally large savings

Big Ass Solutions, based in Lexington, KY, manufactures large industrial and residential ceiling fans and LED lighting and has grown rapidly to a 1,000+ employee company. As product complexity and global manufacturing expanded, the company outgrew its legacy ERP—struggling to streamline production, manage complex bills of materials, gain supply-chain visibility, and identify cost savings across procurement.

Big Ass Solutions implemented Epicor ERP, leveraging purchase-order suggestion tools, push/pull production scheduling, and a deep supplier-data repository plus business intelligence. The system enabled real-time schedule adjustments, uncovered procurement cost savings, improved inventory and order fulfillment across global plants, and supported the company’s growth to roughly $300 million in revenue.
