Services offered: NetSuite Custom Development

Client Overview

Agricultural Mfg. & Textiles, Inc. (AMT) was founded in 1975 to provide quality products to the poultry industry. They are a wholesale distributor of equipment used primarily in the poultry, swine, and dairy industry. The company’s products include more than 900 items, such as winches, hardware, tools, wire, hose, belts, and cable. AMT has been using NetSuite for a little more than a decade to manage all aspects of their business, including eCommerce.

Challenges

With rapid growth, AMT found its existing inventory management systems inadequate to meet the growing business needs.
Primary challenges were:

Management of rapidly growing stocks and inventory

Planning and managing production matched to demand and supply

Reporting needs for financial decision-making

Limited localized resources for employee learning and training

Difficulties with decision-making, with significant business impact

AMT’s excess inventory in stock for long periods resulted in less than optimum storage usage. They also faced a shortage of inventory that led to increased waiting time resulting in delayed delivery. As the consumers buying behavior changed, AMT also needed to improve their digital presence. They saw the need to modernize their website to attract more customers and efficiently engage with their existing customers. AMT felt that even though they had been using NetSuite for almost a decade, some of their users were still untrained and hence they were still unable to use the full potential that NetSuite offered.
