Key takeaways:

·     Best Maid Pickles transitioned to an enterprise resource planning system, Plex, from Rockwell Automation, to meet higher Safe Quality Food certification levels.

·      Plex's cloud-based system significantly improved Best Maid's inventory management, financial processes, and overall agility, allowing for real-time margin analysis, quicker pricing decisions, and streamlined operations.

·      The implementation of Plex's material requirements planning functions led to a notable reduction in safety stock resulting in a substantial annual saving of  $500,000.

Why it’s important:

The case of Best Maid Pickles illustrates how a cloud-based ERP system can drive operational efficiency, improve inventory management, and deliver substantial returns on investment for a century-old company. 

The details:

Best Maid Pickles, founded in 1926 and now the largest pickle manufacturer in Texas, faced the need for higher Safe Quality Food (SQF) certification levels in 2016 due to rapid growth and private label packing for a large company. To modernize its operations, the company sought an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, and in 2016, they selected Plex by Rockwell Automation for its cloud-based design, user-friendliness, and tailored implementation strategy.
