Case Study: KW Engineering boosts productivity and quality control with Tricorn manufacturing software

KW Engineering - Customer Case Study

KW Engineering, a precision manufacturing subcontractor for the aerospace and medical industries, faced challenges with its outdated, labor-intensive job management system. The system lacked sufficient reporting capabilities and made stock control and traceability for specialized aerospace materials difficult. To support its growth and gain crucial aerospace approvals, the company needed a more effective solution and selected Tricorn's Job Processing and ISO Quality software.

Tricorn's software provided a comprehensive solution that improved stock control through barcode recording, automated administrative tasks like works order creation, and offered robust quality management tools for generating reports and maintaining a calibration database. The results for KW Engineering included a significant reduction in material ordering, eased administrative workload, and the capacity to support a planned 50% increase in turnover without a proportional rise in overhead. The implementation of Tricorn had a positive long-term impact on profitability and operational efficiency and was instrumental in achieving key aerospace supplier approvals.
