Case Study: Kemco Manufacturing achieves 40% faster cycle times and award-winning global transformation with JobBOSS

Kemco Aeroscope Manufacturing - Customer Case Study

Kemco Manufacturing, a St. Louis-based producer of aerospace parts for the military, faced the need to diversify from predominantly Department of Defense work into global contract manufacturing while improving efficiency and visibility across the shop. Lacking an MRP system and needing lean-driven reductions in setup time, scrap and rework, Kemco implemented JobBOSS business management software (an MRP/shop-floor control solution), spending nine months on deployment to support their rebranding and competitiveness goals.

JobBOSS became the backbone of Kemco’s transformation, integrated with Amplify Technologies’ APSS dashboards to provide real-time scheduling, material planning and supplier/customer visibility. As a result, Kemco earned aerospace ISO certification, cut cycle time by 40%, reduced setup errors by 50%, improved on-time delivery to 95.6% in 2005 and 99.8% in 2006, and halved the time customer service spent on status reporting—outcomes JobBOSS and its APSS integration helped deliver.
