Case Study: Del Monte Foods achieves lights-out automated batch processing and reduced admin overhead with Redwood Software RunMyJobs

Del Monte Foods International Limited Says Yes to Efficient Process Management

Del Monte Foods International Limited, a global leader in canned fruit and fruit juice, needed a trouble-free migration from an IBM mainframe to Baan ERP on IBM AS/400 while maintaining critical overnight batch processing (invoices, orders, sales figures). Their legacy scheduler required hands-on attention from several staff and couldn’t meet new 24x7 access and cross-platform requirements, so they sought a more flexible, reliable process management solution.

They chose Redwood RunMyJobs for its maturity, integration with Baan and cross-platform capabilities, with Redwood consultants supporting a fast implementation. RunMyJobs automated complex AS/400, Windows, UNIX and EDI jobs with load balancing and SMS alerts, cutting overnight operational staff from four to one, enabling a “lights out” operation, reducing administration overheads and ensuring dependable, timely processing.
