Case Study: Exacto Inc achieves daily scrap visibility, reduced defects and lower costs with Hertzler Systems Inc

Integration Increases Scrap Visibility, Drives Down Defects and Co

Exacto Inc, a high‑precision machining company, was tracking scrap in its ERP and generating monthly Excel reports for quality analysis, leaving leadership with data that was often four to six weeks old and too late for timely problem solving. Exacto was already a GainSeeker user from Hertzler Systems Inc but had not implemented GainSeeker’s defect management due to the extra labor required to enter scrap in two systems.

Hertzler Systems Inc implemented an automated integration that extracts scrap data from Exacto’s ERP and loads it into GainSeeker daily, eliminating manual entry and providing timely visibility. As a result, Exacto’s quality managers and engineers now have daily scrap counts, defect reasons, and scrap cost tracking, can drill down to root causes, spot trends faster, reduce scrap and related costs, and shift the plant culture to data-driven decision making.
