“We were looking for a system that would not only get rid of all these little islands of information but also something in the cloud."

“What that gives us is real confidence in the processes we are running, the accuracy of the data we are capturing, the visibility of our operations, and the quality of the products we are creating and shipping to customers.”

“As we make products, we now maintain a real-time view of our inventory right there on the fly. So we have a true picture of inventory for both raw materials and finished products. Our cycle counts are also much more accurate because people are recording production right when they perform …

"By reducing the interaction between the team members and the display, our team members are able to 100% focus on their process as well as their quality checks of the products they produce. We're also using the integration data to display real-time on our plant floor, so our floor-side leadership …

“I would recommend that anyone needing to learn Plex take the time to attend Boot Camp.”

"Earlier we would rely on approximation, but now we know exactly how much we’ve produced on any given day and how much more we need to produce. With Plex, we made a paradigm shift from the time we were handling food and raw material lot management on notepads, to the …

“Our quality staff are very happy with Plex because they’re completely confident that the system accurately records all of the most critical information about our products and processes.”

“[The quality staff is] now doing statistical analysis that was difficult to do before, which enables them to go on the production floor and stop processes that are generating out-of-specification products. Based on this improvement, we’ve been able to reduce scrap rates from 2.5 percent to 1.5 percent.”

“Paying premium freight used to be a huge expense for us. It amounted to about 0.7% of our total sales. With Plex, we’ve basically eliminated those costs in just two years, while achieving nearly 100% on-time delivery for our customers.”

“When a company is evaluating us as a potential partner and they visit our facilities and notice the level of control process investment we’ve made, they see us in a whole new light. They start to take us seriously as a partner that can deliver products with outstanding electrical performance.”

“Audits no longer make us nervous because we know we can access all the information we need right away. They can see for themselves how strong our processes and controls are. Our supply chain partners can also recognize how much our processes have matured. Implementing Plex has put us into …

“We have more than 100 employees using Plex on a daily basis, and they’ve found the system to be very user-friendly. Once our first wave of users experienced greater control over production quality and engineering, they requested we roll it out across our operations—right down to the production floor. They …

“With the improvements we’ve made through Plex, we now see ourselves as manufacturing leaders. We’re a tier-one supplier to the electric vehicle industry, and with that comes an expectation of highly productive processes and high-performing products. Plex plays a crucial role in enabling us to create value for our customers.”

“[Plex] enables us to continue to innovate in an Industry 4.0 world so that we can help our customers to do the same.”

“Plex has enabled us to integrate our manufacturing operations with our business. The two entities are no longer separated. If I'm producing out on the floor, I'm doing that in Plex. If I'm receiving, I'm doing it in Plex. If I'm shipping, I'm doing it in Plex. Having real-time information …
