Our Customers are Our Purpose and Our Strength
This was March 2020 and then COVID-19 hit. If we were still using the old FoxPro system and the manual way of operating, I don’t think we could have had everybody go home and work remotely.
With OmegaCube ERP, we were able to work remotely and still operate during the pandemic. Even though we just completed setting up our initial ERP system, our employees were able to run with it while working remotely and that ended up working out great. The system operated efficiently for sales, engineering, and purchasing.
I don’t think we could have done that with the old FoxPro system as we did with OmegaCube ERP. So the timing of implementing OmegaCube ERP was perfect.
OmegaCube has gone to a painstaking amount of work to make sure that we can instantaneously navigate to all the data we need. That applies to the front office as well as the shop floor, which means we’re saving time, doing more work and cutting costs throughout the operation – without sacrificing quality or delivery. When customers call for information on orders we can give them answers right away. That used to take 10 minutes or more. Being able to answer questions quickly gives our customers a real sense of confidence in us and shows we’re in control of our manufacturing process.”
I sit down every morning and look at a report which tells me how much I owe, how much I have coming in and helps me plan for incoming orders. It’s become an integral part of running my business effectively, efficiently and profitably, and we could add six more businesses without having to change our software.”
