Case Study: Sundowner Trailer achieves faster production reporting and better inventory control with Synchrono Manufacturing Software

Sundowner Trailer Corporation - Customer Case Study

Sundowner Trailer Corporation, a manufacturer of safe and convenient trailers, was struggling to reconcile completion dates, control excess inventory, and get accurate production data out of an ERP system that was too cumbersome for shop floor use. The company needed a simpler way to manage operations and capture information across the plant.

Synchrono Manufacturing Software implemented its manufacturing software in about four months, giving Sundowner Trailer Corporation 18 strategically placed computers at control points throughout the plant and a much simpler reporting workflow. As a result, transaction reporting dropped from a full day to about 20 seconds, shop floor data capture became easy, and the company gained real-time visibility to make better decisions, reduce excess stock, and move toward a true make-to-order process.
