Case Study: Grand Forest achieves faster deliveries and 80% less administrative time with Exenta ERP and Shop Floor Control

Grand Forest - Customer Case Study

Grand Forest, a woman- and veteran-owned apparel manufacturer in Summerville, South Carolina, makes chainsaw protective clothing and rugged workwear. The company struggled with limited shop-floor visibility and fragmented systems — a standalone ERP and separate time-and-attendance package — which forced managers to spend excessive time on manual ticket scanning and tracking for incentive pay.

Grand Forest implemented Exenta ERP with Shop Floor Control, using a tablet-based, industry-specific interface that gives real-time production and inventory visibility and lets operators scan and record QA on the floor. The integrated system cut administrative time by 80%, freed one full-time employee for business development, delivered a 10% productivity gain in the first month, sped turnaround, improved inventory tracking and boosted employee satisfaction.
