Rootstock Manufacturing ERP customer honored in "Collaborative Ecosystem" category
SAN RAMON, Calif., April 11, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Rootstock Software, a recognized leader in the Manufacturing ERP space, is thrilled to announce that its customer, Architectural Fabrication, Inc. (Arch Fab) has been recognized as a finalist in the 2024 Manufacturing Leadership Awards. Arch Fab has established itself as a leader in fabricating commercial shading products, including sunshades, canopies, and awnings. This finalist status recognizes Arch Fab's outstanding achievements in the Collaborative Ecosystem category. Their multi-faceted project employed cutting-edge technologies deployed on one unified cloud platform, leading to a 233% to 316% return on investment (ROI) in different areas of the company.
To scale for growth, Arch Fab needed to facilitate seamless handoffs from inception to completion, and from sales through operations. However, disjointed, legacy systems were leading to inefficiencies, project delays, and a high turnover rate among overwhelmed staff and project managers.
After implementing an interconnected ecosystem of collaborative solutions, Arch Fab then had the infrastructure to support a staggering 750% growth rate, fueled by winning large national accounts and project managers who are now able to handle an average 300% increase in their project capacity. This ecosystem encompasses Salesforce Sales Cloud, Salesforce Field Service, and Rootstock Manufacturing ERP all working together to provide a holistic view of the company's operations, projects, and financial performance. The project has resulted in major process improvements in billing, installation scheduling, and budgeting—driving significant ROI and greater employee satisfaction. The company reduced its attrition rate by 50% in 2023.
"Being honored as a finalist is a testament to our team's hard work and innovative spirit," said Jeff Cash, CEO of Architectural Fabrication. "I am immensely proud of what our team has accomplished. This recognition reinforces our aggressive growth goals and the pivotal role that technology has played in achieving these objectives. Our heartfelt thanks to the Manufacturing Leadership Council for this recognition and to Rootstock Software for their market-leading ERP solution and their ongoing support."
"Jeff is a phenomenal leader," said Raj Badarinath, Chief Product and Marketing Officer at Rootstock Software. "It was an absolute honor to be able to nominate him and Arch Fab for a Manufacturing Leadership Award, and it's no surprise that their amazing digital transformation project has been recognized by the industry. Being honored as a finalist is a testament to Arch Fab and its commitment to continually leveraging cutting-edge solutions to set a new benchmark in manufacturing excellence."
Also instrumental to the company's success has been its emphasis on leadership development and exceeding customer expectations. Toward this end, its leadership development program recently resulted in the launch of Arch Fab's new Shade Tracker solution, providing its customers with real-time updates on their shading projects.
As an award finalist, Arch Fab is automatically in the running to be a project category winner and is also being considered for the Manufacturing in 2030 Award, which highlights projects with significant innovation or futuristic vision. Winners will be announced at the Manufacturing Leadership Awards Gala on June 5, 2024, at the Rethink: Accelerating Digital Transformation in Manufacturing event.
