In 2023 Accuride selected Pando Freight Audit and Payment to digitalize inbound fulfillment and automate freight bill audit functions across its supply chain. The Pando Freight Audit and Payment deployment is positioned as AP Automation and is aimed at strengthening finance and accounts payable controls for freight audit and payment while improving logistics visibility for ocean imports and drayage movements.
The implementation centralizes freight bill audit and payment workflows, with configuration focused on automated invoice validation, accessorial charge review and exception routing to reduce billing errors and manage accessorial costs. The solution supports inbound fulfillment orchestration for ocean and drayage freight, and implements auditing workflows and dispute handling consistent with AP Automation functional patterns.
Operational coverage is described as North American supply chain activity with targeted improvements in the United States, and the engagement explicitly addresses finance AP freight audit and payment teams as well as logistics process stakeholders. Rollout emphasis is on inbound fulfillment operations, linking audit controls to receiving and carrier charge adjudication.
Governance and process change center on standardizing freight audit controls, instituting exception workflows and centralizing accessorial review to reduce manual charge disputes. Public announcements from Pando highlight expected accessorial reductions and improved freight audit accuracy as primary outcomes of the Accuride Pando Freight Audit and Payment engagement.

| Plex Systems | Legacy | Plex ERP | Manufacturing ERP | ERP Services and Operations | n/a | 2011 | 2012 |
In 2011, Accuride implemented Plex ERP as its companywide Manufacturing ERP to unify plant-floor data and corporate decision-making under a single system. The deployment was part of a broader Fix & Grow program to stabilize operations and create real-time visibility that aligned with Accuride’s lean manufacturing ethos.
Accuride configured the Plex ERP platform to cover core manufacturing workflows, including supply chain management, production scheduling, quality management, shipping and inventory management. The implementation extended into MRO and maintenance workflows and linked transactional shop-floor activities to quality and shipping processes, while Tooling was explicitly noted as a module to be rolled out across foundries in a subsequent phase. The Plex ERP implementation emphasized zero-latency data capture from the floor so that production events immediately trigger downstream processes such as inventory deduction and shipping preparation.
The deployment footprint included the corporate office, Accuride’s largest steel wheel plant, its largest aluminum wheel plant and a secondary aluminum plant, with planned rollouts to the distribution channel, Canadian operations and Rockford. The solution was delivered as the Plex Manufacturing Cloud, enabling mobile access from devices including iPads and supporting remote oversight without VPN constraints. Licensing was structured as a percentage of revenue rather than per-user fees, which allowed broad user access across functions.
Governance and rollout relied on assigned business process owners who led process mapping and improvement to achieve best-practice configurations, coupled with formal enablement through Plex Boot Camp and participation in the Plex User Group and Customer Advisory Board. Accuride served as a Limited Availability customer for new Plex capabilities including the user interface and Enterprise Supply Chain, indicating an iterative pilot approach to feature adoption. These governance steps were used to secure management buy-in and ensure functional teams accepted and operationalized the Manufacturing ERP workflows.
Accuride reported tangible operational outcomes tied to the Plex Manufacturing Cloud, including dramatically improved visibility across sites, the ability to process hardware requisitions in roughly half an hour rather than multiple days, and the capability to ship inventory within three hours for multi part number production lines. Quality traceability was strengthened so parts can be traced and recalled rapidly, and the Henderson, Kentucky plant later received a 2014 Association for Manufacturing Excellence award that Accuride linked to its lean operations and system-enabled improvements. The implementation emphasized shop-floor integration, process automation and traceability as primary benefits of Plex ERP in Accuride’s Manufacturing ERP landscape.
