Case Study: Bob Barker Company achieves increased production, inventory accuracy, and cost savings with INDUSTRIOS Software

Bob Barker Company - Customer Case Study

Bob Barker Company, Inc., a 30+-year leader in detention and correctional facility supplies with distribution centers in North Carolina and Utah, faced operational strain from a recent acquisition, new federal mattress flammability regulations, and an inefficient twice-year physical inventory process that required 3–4 day shutdowns. Having used INDUSTRIOS since 2003 for manufacturing, the company turned to INDUSTRIOS to address traceability, inventory accuracy, and the impact of merged operations.

INDUSTRIOS implemented lot tracking, shop-floor workflow controls and a Physical Inventory module that enabled cycle counts (with plans for handhelds), plus improved production planning and purchasing visibility. As a result, Bob Barker saw increased production, fewer stock-outs, improved inventory accuracy and control, and elimination of semiannual shutdowns (up to eight days saved per year), producing measurable cost savings and better regulatory traceability through INDUSTRIOS.
