Andis Company Enhances Visibility, Cash Flow, and Customer Service
Andis’ on-prem legacy system undermined the company’s day-to-day operations. MCA Connect helped the 100-year-old manufacturer improve visibility, reduce inventory, and establish an integrated modern platform with Dynamics 365 and Power Platform.
“MCA Connect has a lot of experience with discrete manufacturing. So, when we talk to them about problems we’re trying to solve, they’ve likely had those problems come up before. They’re able to come to the table with best practices, and ideas that have worked at other companies.”
Marc Rohde, VP Data & Technology, Andis Company
Trivium Packaging Transform Production with Real-Time Business Intelligence
Trivium Packaging faced production inefficiencies and waste due to limited visibility and delayed reporting. By consolidating critical data and adding modern business intelligence with Power Platform, we helped Trivium gain near real-time visibility, improve OEE, and avoid excessive downtime.
“I would recommend MCA Connect to any manufacturing company that has similar problems and wants to learn more about their business to make sure they drive results and work on problems that matter.”
Michael Wood, Plant Manager, Trivium Packaging
One of the world’s best-known technology brands needed to simplify infrastructure, transform operations, and re-engineer manufacturing processes end-to-end. Over 14 years, we helped the manufacturer save millions, consolidate 17 global plant lines into one, and achieve inventory turns far above the industry standard.
“It is with great excitement that we celebrate the winners and finalists of the 2024 Microsoft Partner of the Year Awards! These incredible partners showcased their innovation and collaboration which have fostered customer success, AI, and Copilot activation, and transformed businesses on the Microsoft Cloud.”
