Largest U.S. Independent Coil Manufacturer Deploys OptiProERP to Modernize Its Manufacturing Operations

Need: Modern, Easy-to-Use ERP with Manufacturing Functionality

AllStyle Coil reviewed Plex Systems, Inc., Oracle NetSuite, and several other ERPs before selecting OptiProERP with SAP Business One.

OptiProERP offers a single, complete business management solution for manufacturers and distributors that provides control of and visibility into their end-to-end business processes. As SAP Business One’s strategic industry and OEM partner, OptiProERP’s industry-specific solutions are natively embedded into SAP Business One’s core ERP and financial modules, which results in a fully integrated solution for manufacturing and distribution firms like AllStyle Coil.

“We chose OptiProERP for its simplicity,” Martin said. “It was easy to grasp and allows us to consolidate everything into one system. It’s also flexible enough that we aren’t forced to conform to the way the software works, which was a problem with Global Shop.”

Over the past 30 years, the family-owned business has grown from 40,000 square feet to an 800,000-square-foot manufacturing facility that houses its coil, air condensers, and HVAC manufacturing lines as well as its distribution operation. The company sells commercial and residential heating and cooling products to installers and holds numerous design patents.

Automation, Better Data Visibility, and Improved Customer Service

After OptiProERP is deployed, Martin looks forward to eliminating duplicate manual entries, consolidating its multiple businesses into one system, providing customers with real-time updates on orders, and having deeper visibility into financial operations.

“All of our inventory counts are manual and we have no digital background at all,” Martin said. “So when we do inventory counts, it’s all done with pencil and paper. Any time you do manual counts, there are always errors. With OptiProERP’s workflow automation, that won’t happen.”

OptiProERP will also help AllStyle Coil improve its customer service. With all data housed in one system, anyone will be able to find and deliver order statuses instantly without physically having to track down a purchase order and walk to the manufacturing floor to learn where an order stands on the production schedule.

“With OptiProERP we plan on creating a customer portal so customers can sign in and see and track orders, which will automate the process,” Martin said. “We will be able to give them a better timeline and set expectations appropriately. In addition, we’ll be able to see everything and be more transparent.”
