Case Study: Ideation achieves real-time inventory and production visibility with FlexiBake

Ideation generates purchase orders in 1 hour with Flexibake

Ideation, a Georgia-based bakery products manufacturer, faced significant operational challenges as it shifted to co-manufacturing across two facilities. They were struggling with inaccessible data, relying on manual Excel processes for purchasing and planning, and only using their existing FlexiBake system as a basic invoice generator. This led to difficulties in tracking raw materials, inventory, and waste, hindering their ability to scale effectively.

By fully implementing and configuring the FlexiBake ERP system, Ideation gained a centralized solution for their operations. FlexiBake provided real-time inventory tracking via iPads, automated purchase order generation, and comprehensive reporting. The results included reducing the time to generate purchase order reports from days to under an hour, achieving 100% staff access to inventory data, and gaining full visibility across both facilities, positioning them for continued growth.
