Case Study: Lakeside Equipment Corporation achieves dramatic efficiency gains and remote operations with OmegaCube Technologies

Lakeside Equipment Corporation - Customer Case Study

Lakeside Equipment Corporation, a Bartlett, Illinois engineering and manufacturing firm that supplies water purification systems across North America, faced growing pains from added product lines, manual processes, disconnected CAD/3D workflows, and an aging FoxPro database. After evaluating ERP options, Lakeside selected OmegaCube Technologies’ OmegaCube ERP for its customizability, local support, and ability to migrate and clean their FoxPro data so the company could move away from error-prone, manual templates and disparate drawing updates.

OmegaCube Technologies implemented a phased OmegaCube ERP rollout—starting with Parts, then Engineering, then Sales—migrating and deduplicating data, automating BOMs and quotes, and enabling mobility for remote work. The results included nearly 100% improvement in daily accounting and invoicing, scheduling lead times reduced from 6–9 weeks to 3–4 weeks for fabricator releases, fewer external vendor codes (from 10–12 down to 8–9), rapid quote generation in minutes, reduced man-hours and cross-training opportunities, and sustained operations during the COVID-19 shift to remote work.
