Case Study: Kamco Industries cuts material cost discrepancies by 92% and reduces inventory time from days to hours with Plex Systems

Integrated ERP Solution Helps Automotive Supplier Cut Costs, Improve Productivity

Kamco Industries is an injection molder supplying interior, underbody and exterior components to tier‑I and II automotive suppliers. The company relied on a patchwork of stand‑alone systems and spreadsheets, which created poor visibility into costly raw materials, manual month‑end inventory processes that took six days and produced up to 20% discrepancies, and inefficient production scheduling and data entry.

Kamco implemented the Plex Manufacturing Cloud to standardize ERP across purchasing, receiving, production, shipping/EDI, quality and HR. The integrated system cut inventory reconciliation from six days to a few hours, reduced monthly material cost discrepancies by more than 92%, improved line‑side label accuracy by over 95% and boosted delivery performance by 78%—earning a Superior Delivery Performance Award—while also lowering IT overhead and eliminating much manual data entry.
