The Challenge

Rapid Design Group, a turn-key shop located in Leduc, Alberta, Canada, was founded by Serg Arabsky in 2011. Initially, it was a one-man shop consulting in the oil and gas industry. However, Serg quickly realized that he could offer not only consulting but design and manufacturing as well. Today, Rapid Design Group occupies a 17,000 sq ft facility with 22 employees, specializing in downhole drilling and completions for the oil and gas industry. Despite its growth, the company faced challenges in integrating departments, creating efficiencies, and planning, which made every job difficult.

The Solution

Rapid Design Group implemented the E2 system to integrate departments quickly, start creating efficiencies immediately, and help the shop plan, making every job easier. Once E2 was loaded and running in Serg’s shop, he was convinced he made the right purchase. His team has implemented many E2 modules including the QuickBooks and Data Collection modules. The QuickBooks integration was seamless and Serg says that Data Collection has moved his machinists to think more holistically about every project. It easily shows them where improvements can be made and works perfectly with prototype work to help control inventory.
