Case Study: SpecPrint, Inc. achieves streamlined operations and 10% manufacturing / 20% administrative cost savings with Sage 500 ERP

SpecPrint, Durable Decal Maker, Is Stuck on Sage 500 ERP

SpecPrint, Inc., a durable-label manufacturer in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, faced repeated overproduction, duplicate shipping and an inability to manage coproducts on its legacy AS/400 system. Seeking a PC-based solution that integrated manufacturing, inventory and accounting while handling coproducts, SpecPrint selected Sage 500 ERP from Sage.

Sage implemented its Sage 500 ERP financial, distribution and manufacturing modules to automate order scheduling, shop-floor instructions, job costing and MRP-driven replenishment. The Sage 500 ERP deployment eliminated coproduct errors, halved raw‑materials inventory, improved cash flow and delivered measurable gains: 10% savings in manufacturing costs and 20% savings in administrative labor, plus faster, more precise reporting and end‑to‑end integration.
