RAM Precision Industries ERP Case Study

Industry

Aerospace

Challenge

RAM Precision Industries managed four diverse product lines using manual spreadsheets and disconnected, offline processes. This reliance on manual methods limited real-time visibility into production, created inefficiencies in scheduling and made it challenging to track and expedite make-to-order jobs. The lack of integration hindered effective shop floor control and complicated inventory management, increasing the risk of errors and slowing decision-making.

Results

After implementing Global Shop Solutions ERP software, RAM Precision Industries achieved centralized production data, real-time job tracking and enhanced shop floor control. The company reported a 10% gain in labor efficiency, faster and more accurate inventory management and the ability to monitor over 1,000 jobs in real time. Custom reporting and analytics improved quoting and cost control, while staff benefited from immediate access to up-to-date information across multiple terminals. Managers now have the tools and insights needed to optimize operations and make informed strategic decisions.

Global Shop Solutions does so many things for us that we no longer need to maintain separate systems to manage each part of the business. From job tracking and traceability to auto purchasing, inventory, accounting and more, I can’t think of one area where the software hasn’t made a difference.

About RAM Precision Industries

RAM Precision Industries is a contract manufacturer based in Dayton, Ohio, specializing in precision tooling for the beverage and packaging industries, orthopedic implants and instrumentation for the medical field and precision components for aerospace and defense applications. They serve both independent and OEM customers, providing customizable turnkey solutions.

The Challenge

RAM Precision Industries specializes in precision tooling, orthopedic and medical instrumentation and aerospace components across four distinct product lines. Before adopting Global Shop Solutions ERP, the company depended on manual spreadsheets and offline processes to manage production data and scheduling. This approach created data silos, slowed response times and hindered their ability to efficiently handle complex, make-to-order jobs. Active work orders exceeded 900 and the lack of integrated systems made it difficult to track jobs in real time or adjust schedules to meet customer demands.

The Solution

Seeking to improve operational control and real-time visibility, RAM Precision Industries evaluated solutions that could handle the complexity of their manufacturing environment. They selected Global Shop Solutions ERP software for its ability to centralize data, integrate key business functions and support real-time job tracking and analytics. Plant Manager Jason Trubee noted, "Having all the data in one place gives everyone in the company instant access to the information they need to know from multiple computers and terminals. Plus, the system automatically updates itself, which makes the data as close to real-time as you can get." The implementation enabled RAM Precision to manage four product lines with ease, auto-purchase materials and maintain accurate inventory and accounting, eliminating the need for disparate systems.

The Results

With Global Shop Solutions ERP in place, RAM Precision Industries experienced substantial operational improvements. Over 1,000 jobs are now tracked in real time, supporting more than 900 active work orders across four product lines. Labor efficiency increased by 10%, delivering significant labor cost savings. Inventory management became faster and more accurate and custom reporting enhanced quoting and cost control. As Jason Trubee shared, "We’ve improved overall labor efficiency by 10%, generating significant savings on our labor costs." Managers now have full shop floor visibility, access to timely data and the ability to make strategic improvements based on robust analytics.
