Air Industries is a supplier to prime aerospace contractors around the globe and is one of only a handful of firms which meets all the compulsory standards required of such a vendor. Founded in 1951, Air Industries’ specialty is working with titanium as well as super alloys and a wide variety of other high-strength steels.

The Challenge
Air Industries’ mission is to ‘provide fasteners that exceed customers’ expectations and requirements’.  The company’s hardware and software applications were ageing, and it decided to seek a new Enterprise system that could handle a rapidly expanding product line as well as stringent lot inventory and traceability requirements.

After a lengthy examination of available solutions, Air Industries opted for SYSPRO ERP. The reasons for selecting SYSPRO included the solution’s in-depth lot control capability, along with its seamless integration of Bills of Material, Purchasing, Work in Progress and Inventory Control, saving Air Industries numerous man hours.

One of the major results achieved by the new solution is the superior, up-to-date information flow to management, enabling more expedient decision-making. In addition, ‘drill down’ capabilities have significantly expanded the amount of available operational data and are helping to boost company profits.
