PD Peterka & Associates operates four distinct businesses under one roof, each with unique operational challenges and customer requirements. The company was using an outdated, homegrown system along with four other database and accounting applications that couldn't be integrated. This setup required each profit center to be managed separately, leading to inefficiencies. The primary challenges included managing materials flow, resourcing raw materials for short runs, ensuring on-time delivery, and maintaining quality at a competitive price. The company needed a single ERP solution that could handle the diverse needs of all four businesses, including robust Material Requirements Planning (MRP) capabilities and tight inventory control.

PD Peterka & Associates is a versatile manufacturer based in Saukville, Wisconsin. The company operates four unique businesses or 'profit centers' under a single roof: a job-shop, a complex railroad fastener manufacturing business, a die-cutting business, and a subcontracting business. Each of these businesses has its own set of operational challenges and customer requirements. The company was managing these diverse operations with an antiquated, homegrown Lotus-based system and four other database and accounting applications, none of which could be integrated. This setup required each profit center to be managed separately, leading to inefficiencies and a lack of integration across the organization.

PD Peterka & Associates implemented OmegaCube’s PowerERP, a flexible, fully integrated ERP solution designed for small and midsize businesses. PowerERP was chosen for its ability to meet the diverse needs of all four businesses economically. The system provides robust scheduling capabilities, immediate visibility into machine utilization, and available capacity, enabling the company to evaluate alternative production scenarios. PowerERP's MRP functionality offers unprecedented control over inventory, scheduling, and complex BOMs, helping the company balance, plan, and schedule ordering and inventory movements. The system also tracks costs and bottlenecks in the production process, including machine downtime and inefficiencies. PowerERP instills process discipline across the organization, enhancing product quality and increasing sales. The system traces each job from the initial quotation through the manufacturing cycle, into the warehouse, out the door, and into the billing process. It also provides distinct reports for each profit center, allowing the company president to view individual performance or compile them into a single report.
