LIVONIA, Mich., Feb. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Located in Livonia, MI, IPS Assembly serves a diverse range of industries, including industrial, defense & aerospace, medical, lighting & entertainment, and energy sectors. IPS Assembly partners with customers to provide end-to-end solutions, from PCB design support to quick-turn prototyping, assembly, repair, and rework services. Their agility and dedication to quality and speed, especially in government contracts, sets them apart from the competition.
Their strategic location near Detroit's automotive hub allows IPS Assembly to offer automotive customers unparalleled support for rapid prototyping, PCB assembly, and repair/rework services. With their focus on automation, including order forecasting, inventory management, and production scheduling, they're empowered to stay ahead in an increasingly competitive market.
Previously, IPS Assembly managed their operations using a combination of manual processes and legacy software. As their company scaled, these systems became inefficient and error-prone, prompting an extensive search for a system tailored to electronics manufacturing that ensured seamless compliance with industry standards like ISO and NIST.
Cetec ERP's cloud-based platform stood out because of its ability to handle the unique needs of a contract manufacturer. With its robust features for inventory, production, and compliance management, Cetec ERP was the ideal choice for IPS Assembly's business. Its' focus on streamlining production and inventory processes aligned perfectly with IPS Assembly's long-term goals.
"Cetec ERP has been more than just a software solution; it's been a strategic partner in our growth journey," said Tej Sutariya, CISO at IPS Assembly. "The automation capabilities and customizability have helped us achieve efficiencies we couldn't imagine with our previous systems."
The transition to Cetec ERP began with a comprehensive inventory audit, where errors in part records were identified and corrected. The improved inventory accuracy had a measurable impact on turn and lead times, enabling IPS Assembly to fulfill orders faster and more efficiently. Optimized kitting and de-kitting, enhanced order forecasting, and improved production scheduling provided real-time data insights, increased operational efficiency, and simplified reporting for audits and certifications.
Since adopting Cetec ERP, IPS Assembly has experienced reduced production lead times, improved inventory accuracy, and fewer compliance issues, all of which contribute to significant cost savings. Automation in processes like MRP/purchasing and production scheduling has also improved resource utilization and allowed them to handle more complex projects, directly impacting revenue growth.
"Cetec ERP will play a critical role as we expand into new markets and continue to refine our operations. Its flexibility will help us adapt to evolving customer demands, while its advanced automation features for inventory management, order forecasting, and production scheduling will ensure we maintain compliance and scale efficiently. Additionally, its robust reporting capabilities will support our commitment to continuous improvement and data-driven decision-making.
Cetec ERP is disrupting a stagnant, high dollar industry that has resisted change for decades. Since 2015, and without any major marketing initiatives or venture capital funding, Cetec ERP has independently migrated hundreds of companies off legacy technology platforms like Oracle and NetSuite, saving companies hundreds of thousands of dollars, onto a new generation of lower cost ERP technology.
