In 2019 Northgate implemented Microsoft Dynamics GP as its ERP Financial platform. The deployment targeted core finance and operational processes for the United States transportation company, which operates with about 300 employees and reported $60,000,000 in revenue.
Implementation centered on financial modules including general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and financial reporting, combined with inventory control and purchase order processing to support material management. Microsoft Dynamics GP was configured to capture purchase to pay and order to cash workflows and to centralize transactional financial data to support routine accounting and reporting activities.
Operational coverage emphasized finance and operations departments, with role based security, a standardized chart of accounts, and established month end close workflows to align accounting and operations processes. An Operations Specialist at Northgate listed Microsoft Dynamics GP as a core skill and referenced using the application for day to day supply chain operations and material management during Sep 2022 to Feb 2023, indicating continued operational use beyond the initial 2019 implementation.

| ADP | Legacy | ADP Payroll | Payroll | HCM | n/a | 2016 | 2017 |
In 2016, Northgate implemented ADP Payroll, deploying the ADP Payroll application to manage time capture and wage processing for operational staff within the Materials function. The deployment targeted the Materials department where the Materials Manager supervised a six person team, approved timesheets, onboarded and trained employees, and handled disciplinary actions tied to attendance and payroll accuracy.
ADP Payroll was configured to support timesheet approvals, attendance tracking, exception handling, and payroll issue resolution, aligning with core Payroll category workflows such as time reconciliation and payroll-run exception management. The Materials Manager used ADP Payroll to ensure attendance and payroll issues were corrected prior to payroll runs and to coordinate onboarding and offboarding payroll actions.
ADP Payroll operated alongside NorthGate’s accounting system GP, the warehouse system Fascor, and Ford’s MMP which were used for inventory reconciliation and supplier shipment controls, with operational coordination required between supervisors reconciling time and the payroll function. While those systems governed material and inventory accounting, ADP Payroll served as the authoritative payroll and attendance system for the Materials department and interfaced operationally through supervisor time approvals and exception reporting.
Governance and process controls emphasized system access approval, written process documentation for material positions, training on proper time capture, and escalation paths for payroll discrepancies administered by the Materials Manager. ADP Payroll supported ongoing workforce management activities described in operational notes, including onboarding, position documentation updates, and resolution of attendance related payroll issues.

In 2016, Northgate implemented Korber HighJump Warehouse Edge (Formerly AccellosOne WMS) for Warehouse Management. The deployment concentrated on Northgate's service warehouse in Flint, Michigan and was positioned to support core supply chain execution and customer service workflows.
The Korber HighJump Warehouse Edge implementation covered standard Warehouse Management capabilities, including cycle counting configured to prepare for the annual physical inventory, daily inbound and outbound processing, receiving, put-away, order processing, pick and pack workflows, part inspection, and repackaging and relabeling. The application was used to instrument inventory control and warehouse execution tasks, and the full product name Korber HighJump Warehouse Edge (Formerly AccellosOne WMS) appears in operational procedures and training.
Operational scope included coordination between the warehouse floor and the customer service team, where staff used the system to update bills of materials and support order fulfillment. Process governance emphasized a recurring cycle counting program to enable the annual physical inventory and standardized daily SOPs for inbound and outbound flows, with quality and safety activities routed through the Director of Business Development.
Rollout and adoption elements were focused on staff training and role-based operational handoffs, evidenced by hands-on training in receiving, order processing, put-away, inspection, and relabeling. The implementation narrative centers on system-driven inventory accuracy, warehouse execution, and integrated operational procedures without asserting measured outcomes.
