Case Study: Ring Container reduces inventory by 25% with Infor's EAM

Ring Container reduces inventory by 25% with Infor EAM

Ring Container Technologies, a global industrial plastics manufacturer with plants across the US, Canada and England, was running maintenance on 18 separate Microsoft Access databases that weren’t integrated with its ERP. The fragmented setup meant no cross‑plant visibility, duplicated and obsolete parts, no reliable way to track maintenance costs, manual invoice processing, and poor mobile tools for technicians.

Ring implemented Infor EAM integrated with Infor LN, consolidating the databases into a single, configurable system with a common parts list, controlled part setup, a dedicated EAM administrator, mobile iPad workflows, automated requisitions and invoice matching. The company expects a 25% reduction in inventory by eliminating duplication and obsolete parts and sharing inventory between plants, while also cutting data entry, speeding invoicing, improving cost visibility across sites, and increasing uptime.
