Case Study: Great Northern Corp achieves streamlined scheduling, accurate estimating, and inventory efficiency with Epicor AVP

Great Northern Corp - Customer Case Study

Great Northern Corp., an Oshkosh, Wisconsin folding-carton manufacturer known for its StrataGraph® retail packaging, needed to replace an inflexible corrugated-focused system and time-consuming manual processes. The plant struggled with a manual planning board, complex estimating for laminated products, an obsolete shop-floor data-collection system, and increasing demands for faster, more accurate customer communication.

Great Northern implemented Epicor AVP (with Epicor SmarTrak) and went live in three months. The industry-specific solution delivered a robust estimating module for modeling production scenarios, an Advanced Planning & Scheduling board that replaced manual scheduling, and RF-based inventory tracking. Results included faster, more accurate quotes and pricing, optimized production planning with visibility to constraints, improved internal communication and responsiveness, and streamlined inventory management.
