Manitoba Starch Products ERP Implementation Case Study

This case study details the operational challenges faced by Manitoba Starch Products (MS) and their subsequent implementation of Epicor ERP with the assistance of Six S Partners. MS, a manufacturer of starch-based food products, was struggling with disjointed systems that hindered efficiency and compliance with food safety standards. The document outlines how MS engaged a financial audit firm to analyze their systems and sought an ERP platform to improve integration and reduce human error. The transition to Epicor ERP enabled MS to streamline workflows, enhance record-keeping, and ensure compliance with various food safety certifications. Key improvements included better integration of production, finance, and maintenance processes, which led to significant operational efficiencies. The case study also highlights the positive outcomes of the ERP implementation, such as reduced audit times and improved data accessibility, ultimately allowing MS to grow their business while maintaining high-quality standards.
