Welding Industries Malaysia, a Malaysian welding equipment manufacturer, implemented Epicor Manufacturing ERP after its local MRP system could not handle large data volumes or provide material movement visibility. The solution supports end-to-end planning, scheduling, execution, and monitoring for machinery assembly. After four-and-a-half years, the company reports improved operational visibility, cost savings, and faster management decisions backed by live data.

Key takeaways

Legacy MRP lacked capacity to manage high data volumes and material tracking

Epicor Manufacturing ERP delivers real-time visibility from raw materials to final assembly

MRP and materials management modules are critical for machinery assembly operations

Live data enables faster, evidence-based management decisions and spend justification

Implementation delivered measurable cost savings and cross-functional operational visibility
