Case Study: Optical Cable Corporation achieves real-time inventory visibility and improved operational efficiency with SYSPRO ERP Software

Optical Cable Focuses on Long-Term Vision with SYSPRO Software

Optical Cable Corporation, a leading manufacturer of enterprise and military fiber‑optic cables, faced SOX compliance requirements, limited inventory visibility and forecasting, rising production costs, and labor‑intensive record keeping — all within a small‑business ERP budget. To support its long‑term growth plan and improve customer service, Optical Cable selected SYSPRO ERP Software (implementing SYSPRO Enterprise Software modules including CRM, APS, Product Configurator and e.net integration).

SYSPRO ERP Software deployed a modular, scalable solution with bar‑code scanning and handhelds using SYSPRO e.net for real‑time transaction processing, APS for production planning, and CRM/Product Configurator for faster, more customized order handling. The result was improved operational efficiency and inventory visibility, reduced labor requirements and up‑to‑date records, faster order turnaround and better customer response — providing Optical Cable with real‑time job tracking and the data needed for superior decision‑making and service.
