Case Study: Lakeshirts achieves same-day, error-free order-to-production turnaround with SYSPRO ERP Software

Lakeshirts Takes Out the Wrinkles with SYSPRO

Lakeshirts, a 20-year-old clothing manufacturer specializing in custom screen printing and embroidery, faced tight, time-sensitive production requirements and a fragmented IT environment that often delayed orders up to three days and introduced errors. The company needed a web-enabled ordering system so sales representatives could select from a complete design/sourcebook, place accurate orders, and reduce manual handoffs—needs addressed by SYSPRO ERP Software (using SYSPRO enterprise software, SYSPRO e.net solutions and a Microsoft .NET-based Product Configurator).

SYSPRO ERP Software implemented a rules-based .NET Product Configurator and SYSPRO e.net solutions to automate web order entry directly into the SYSPRO database via COM/XML, automatically print orders and generate job tickets, and transmit jobs to production in real time. The result: majority of orders now reach production the same day they’re received, labor costs and manual errors have been reduced, sales reps get 24/7 reporting, and Lakeshirts realized its return on investment faster than expected.
