Case Study: Carriage House Door achieves real-time cost insight and inventory control with FeneVision

Gains Cost Insight and Control With Rapid ERP Implementation

Carriage House Door, a California and North Carolina manufacturer of high-end, handcrafted wood garage and swing doors, struggled with limited visibility into its highly customized, make-to-order production: job costs, inventory and scheduling were tracked manually and reports lagged, hampering growth and consistency. After its acquisition by Building Materials Distributors, Carriage House Door chose FeneVision’s Q25 ERP to provide a make-to-order ERP and implementation support to gain dependable, real-time insight.

FeneVision implemented Q25 at both plants in just over five months, introducing a rules-based dynamic bill of materials, visual job displays, real-time WIP and inventory control, and integrated pricing/quoting. The result was faster, more accurate quoting and consistent pricing, improved inventory accuracy and job-cost visibility, reduced manual scheduling bottlenecks, and measurable productivity and quality gains — all delivered more rapidly than a typical eight-month ERP rollout.
