The Challenge
On top of their rapid growth, Modus Furniture was faced with a number of operational challenges:
- Disparate systems for operations and accounting limited Modus Furniture’s visibility and access to enterprise-wide information
- Offsite warehouse operations were not well connected to other operations
- Lack of real-time insight into inventory status
- Poor information flow between its systems hindered accounts receivable, collections, and chargeback performance
- Needed to support ongoing business growth
The Solution
In order to support the company’s growth, Modus Furniture sought a single, integrated solution that could streamline all its operations and deliver real-time information visibility throughout its organization. Specifically, they needed a solution that:
- Was comprehensive, flexible, and scalable to support future growth
- Could improve data visibility
- Created operational efficiencies; and
- Was a cost effective, easy-to-implement solution that could be maintained without the need for additional IT resources
The Result
Since implementing Apprise ERP, Modus has seen a direct positive impact on its bottom line.
- Within the first year, inventory accuracy improved from 80% to 95%
- Past due receivables went from 25% to 0%
- Few system customizations were required, meaning low total cost of ownership
