Case Study: Midwest Precision Molding achieves 20%+ efficiency gains and rapid growth with Epicor

Injecting New Insights and Efficiencies to Boost Productivity and Power Growth

Midwest Precision Molding, a Wisconsin-based plastic injection molding company serving medical, automotive, food, water filtration, and telecommunications markets, needed faster access to usable data and better scheduling as demand surged during the COVID-19 pandemic. After years of disappointing ERP experiences, the company turned to Epicor, deploying Epicor Kinetic and Epicor Advanced MES to improve visibility and shop-floor control.

Epicor helped Midwest Precision Molding track machine and operator data in real time, re-prioritize jobs quickly, predict job completion more accurately, and reduce reliance on Excel-based reporting. The results included easier machine utilization, less downtime, and better decision-making, with Patrick Austin reporting a 20%+ boost in efficiencies; the company also grew 40% in 2021 and was on track for 70% growth in 2022, with Epicor contributing to that success.
