Case Study: AGM Container Controls, Inc. achieves 37% profit increase and 95% on-time shipping with Epicor ERP

Seeks new end–to–end ERP solution and business intelligence software from Epicor

AGM Container Controls, a Tucson-based manufacturer of moisture-control and protective hardware for aerospace, defense and commercial markets, faced shrinking defense budgets, globalization and economic pressure that threatened 63% of its military-related business. To stay competitive while controlling costs and speeding time-to-market, AGM sought a new end-to-end ERP and business intelligence solution.

AGM implemented Epicor ERP with implementation partner Cre8tive Technology and Design, consolidating accounting, operations, engineering and quality on a single platform. The change delivered major gains: profitability rose 37%, on-time shipping improved from 75% to 95% (supporting a 100% DSCR delivery/quality rating), shipment dollars per employee increased 23.5%, meeting hours and labor costs fell dramatically, accounting became fully traceable, and over 350,000 documents were scanned to reduce paper and storage costs.
