Case Study: Huntington Sheet Metal achieves mobile, real-time inventory accuracy with MIE Solutions

Huntington Sheet Metal Mobility in a Dynamic Environment

Huntington Sheet Metal, a precision metal fabrication company founded in 1984 with about eighty employees and over 100,000 sq ft of manufacturing space, struggled with tracking inventory on the shop floor—losing parts between shifts and wasting time locating products. To address this, Huntington Sheet Metal deployed MIE Solutions’ mobile tools, including MIE Warehouse-enabled scanners and the MIE Mobile Warehouse app, to support shop floor activities and real-time inventory control.

MIE Solutions implemented handheld scanning that lets users print packing slips, use pick lists, perform inventory, and track parts in real time across shifts, bringing mobility and flexibility to the shop floor. The solution reduced human error and corrective work, increased inventory accuracy, and shortened search time for lost parts (issues that previously could take up to an hour), while supporting Huntington Sheet Metal’s steady growth during a 23‑year relationship with MIE Solutions.
