A Plex Systems Case Study
College Park Industries, a Fraser, MI–based leader in anatomically accurate prosthetic feet, serves independent orthotic and prosthetic facilities worldwide and end-users of all ages. Facing hundreds of thousands of possible product configurations—TruStep alone has about 450,000 potential builds—the company needed a manufacturing system that could ensure precision, speed, and regulatory traceability across complex customization, ordering, and global distribution.
College Park implemented the Plex Smart Manufacturing Platform, a cloud-based solution that combines ERP, MES, SCM, CRM and quality management. Plex’s option configurator and automated workflows guide ordering, generate build sheets and serial numbers, and enable same-day build/inspect/ship while giving all departments real-time data. As a result, College Park can accurately manage up to 450,000 potential builds, meet traceability and internal-control requirements, streamline pricing and warranty processes for 1,500 customers, and make faster, data-driven decisions.
