Case Study: CIPLAS achieves sustained growth and operational agility with QAD Adaptive ERP

Ciplas - Customer Case Study

CIPLAS is a third‑generation, Bogotá‑based manufacturer of polypropylene woven sacks, fabrics and cordage with more than 50 years in the packaging market and a 30‑year recycling program. As the company grew and diversified, its planning and information management relied on manual processes, spreadsheets and paper; CIPLAS needed a single, user‑friendly and adaptable ERP to centralize BOMs, routing, compliance and financials while coping with changing Colombian tax and accounting rules.

CIPLAS implemented QAD Adaptive ERP for plant management, scheduling, planning and accounting, gaining real‑time data, transparency and remote access. The system enabled just‑in‑time deliveries, faster decision‑making and easy custom reporting, kept operations running through COVID, and supported measurable growth — sales and kilograms processed rose more than 150% in 10 years, exports tripled, roughly 15% of sales come from recycled material, and the company has grown roughly tenfold over 25 years.
