Case Study: Lighting Services Inc. achieves enhanced operational efficiency and real-time shop-floor visibility with Epicor ERP

Lighting the Way to Future Growth Through Innovation

Lighting Services Inc., a Stony Point, NY–based specialty lighting manufacturer founded in 1958, supplies high‑end lighting for museums, institutions and retailers. With product life cycles shrinking from years to weeks, LSI’s 13‑year‑old legacy ERP could no longer support just‑in‑time production, rapid customization, or requirements like tracking raw material expiration, controlling continuous inventory flow, eliminating component stocking errors, and monitoring project status on the shop floor.

LSI implemented Epicor ERP to modernize operations and gain real‑time visibility across the supply chain. The system enabled accurate expiration‑date tracking, error‑free component stocking, improved inventory control, and live job tracking on the shop floor, allowing a cell‑based manufacturing redesign, support for handheld scanning, faster quoting and better cash‑flow decisions — all driving greater efficiency and higher gross margins without increasing revenue.
