Case Study: Tom's of Maine achieves 10% production increase with Expandable Software's ERP solution

Expandable Helps Tom's of Maine Increase Production by 10%

Tom's of Maine, a natural personal-wellness product manufacturer, struggled with manual production planning, month‑old inventory records, and spreadsheet-based cost tracking that didn’t show labor and material usage by job. To gain real-time visibility and better control, Tom's of Maine selected Expandable Software and implemented the Expandable ERP system to replace its disparate manual and Wang-based accounting processes.

Expandable Software implemented its Expandable ERP with MRP, multilevel bills of materials, component-availability inquiries and automatic inventory backflushing, plus reporting tools for ad hoc queries. The system let managers eliminate downtime by synchronizing batch sizes with shift patterns, respond immediately to customer requests, speed financial close processes, and achieve a measurable 10% increase in production while improving inventory accuracy and cost-of-goods accounting.
