Case Study: Western Wire Products reduces inventory and saves tens of thousands in labor with Infor Distribution SX.e (Infor)

Western Wire brings savings, service to new heights with Infor Distribution SX.e

Western Wire Products, a nearly 100-year-old manufacturer and distributor of custom wire shapes based in Fenton, Missouri, needed a new ERP after its vendor was acquired and support became uncertain. After evaluating multiple vendors, the company selected Infor Distribution SX.e (via partner Earnest & Associates) for its superior order-entry and distribution capabilities and ease of use across departments.

Implementing Distribution SX.e and the Value Add module streamlined order entry, quoting, production planning and shipping: staff can complete transactions in one call, convert quotes to orders, and synchronize demand with production. The system enabled barcode cycle counting, eliminated the annual inventory shutdown, reduced finished-goods inventory, delivered labor savings in the tens of thousands of dollars, cut manual work, and improved customer satisfaction through faster, more accurate shipping and tracking.
