Case Study: North American Metal Roofing Manufacturer achieves validated shipping and real-time inventory visibility with Radley, LLC Endeavor Process Automation

Metal Manufacturer Adds Real‐Time Data Collection Validated Shipping & Inventory Saves Time & Cost

North American Manufacturer, a fabricator of metal roofing products with manufacturing in New Jersey and distribution centers in six states, faced gaps between its legacy data-collection system and QAD ERP. Problems included no real-time inventory visibility, manual QA and receiving, inability to reprint labels, unverified shipments that triggered costly returns, and manual invoice creation. Radley, LLC recommended and implemented its Endeavor Process Automation solution together with Inventory Control and IntelliLabel® to fill those QAD functionality gaps.

Radley, LLC deployed a 3-scan Stage/Verify/Ship workflow, single-scan skid identification, label reprints, automated invoice creation in QAD, barcode-driven QA on receiving, and performed 1000s of inventory transfers to assign items to bin locations. The result was full validation of shipping, real-time, granular inventory visibility, reduced transfers and cycle counts, increased worker productivity, and significant cost savings from verified shipments.
