Enterprise Resource Planning For Supply Chain Resilience
The global COVID-19 pandemic, with its disruptive effects on manufacturers’ supply chains, has been a wake-up call for many businesses to examine their operations through a different lens.

Case Study: TruFood Manufacturing
TruFood Manufacturing has been successfully running on Deacom ERP for years, so when they acquired Simply Natural, they knew that using Deacom ERP for both companies would create more efficiencies and drive growth. With the foundation and SOPs already in place, along with the industry expertise of the Deacom implementation team, Simply Natural was able to get up and running in just four months.
Case Study: Nature's One
Nature's One needed a complete ERP solution that eliminated the long paper trail and lack of visibility that its legacy system created. And with a pledge for purity in contents, quality, sourcing and testing, the company wanted a solution that could keep up with its mission and purpose, as well as regulatory requirements, without being bogged down by bolt-on customizations. These were not easy requirements to fulfill, but Nature’s One found everything it needed and more in Deacom ERP.
Case Study: Bergin Fruit and Nut Company
Bergin Fruit and Nut Company enlisted in Deacom in 2015 to help them scale and better prepare for the future. They didn’t realize it at the time, but their decision to use Deacom ERP was what helped them navigate the unpredictability of COVID-19. When most industries were turned upside down, Bergin was able to successfully pivot their business to stay profitable without skipping a beat.
Deacom Lot Control and Catch Weight for Food Manufacturers
For many food manufacturers, products that naturally vary in weight (like meat, cheese, or seafood) are sold by the unit but priced by the pound. During production, these items, or catch weight items, are weighed, recorded, and labeled either manually or using a software system. The labels include unique identifiers that includes important information like lot number, catch weight, and serial number. This serialization data can take lot tracking and inventory visibility to a higher level. When used with Deacom’s built-in warehouse management system, users can track lots forward and backwards throughout the supply chain while also gaining a detailed understanding of their inventory in real time.
Deacom Lot Control and Serialization for Pharmaceutical and Nutraceutical Manufacturers
Lot control has always played a significant role in manufacturing to reduce risks and stay competitive. Every manufacturer cares about quality control and brand reputation. Being able to track and trace every batch and every item back to a specific lot or even a production unit is the only way to close the loop on quality control and respond to downstream problems in a timely fashion. For this reason, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers see traceability and serialization as an absolute requirement to gain greater control over product, process quality, and to respond to their customer demands.

White Paper: Reduce the “Cost of Being Wrong”
It only takes one mistake – one flaw, contaminant or error – to diminish the usefulness of a product or lose customers. In today’s marketplace, there are many vendors and distributors capable of offering a competitive product.

The expenses incurred in trying to rectify that one mistake and regain the ground that has been lost is known as the “cost of being wrong.” This white paper is focused on complex processes and how businesses that rely on them can avoid critical errors, including the late detection of quality issues. With Hyper-Tight Process Control™ as part of your ERP, you can ensure constant quality in your production process, at scale.

Case Study: Teasdale Foods
In the spring of 2017, Deacom began implementation if its ERP system for Teasdale Foods, a leading manufacturer and provider of Hispanic food products, headquartered Atwater, California.

Case Study: AMCO Proteins
AMCO Proteins, a specialty proteins manufacturer, was using technology to run their business much like other manufacturing companies in the United States: by customizing various types of software to deliver specific capabilities.

The company determined that they were looking for a system that: tied together customer service, accounting, manufacturing, purchasing, and shipping within a single tool; had strong data mining and reporting functionality; provided strong sales reporting; was configurable without customization; had strong sustainable technical support capabilities; and would not exceed ERP budget allocations.
Case Study: D.G. Yuengling & Son
Over the past ten years, D.G. Yuengling & Son has experienced incredible growth as the brand continues to expand to the West Coast.

It became clear that it would not be possible to successfully expand their distribution without uprooting that foundation.
Case Study: Synalloy
Synalloy Corporation selected Deacom ERP in August 2008 and went live on the software just seven months later. Since then, the company has successfully migrated all its business units onto the platform and continues to do so with each new acquisition.
