American Axle & Manufacturing | Manufacturing | 19000 | $6.1B | United States | Plex Systems | Plex ERP - Inventory Management | Inventory Management | 2014 | Baker Tilly Advisory Group | In 2014, American Axle & Manufacturing implemented Plex ERP - Inventory Management across its metal forming business in the United States to capture shop-floor inventory control and quality management. The deployment targeted Inventory Management, production performance tracking, and the integration of operational data into corporate financial reporting. Implementation centered on the inventory and quality modules within Plex ERP - Inventory Management, configured for real-time shop-floor inventory transactions, lot and serial traceability, and quality nonconformance workflows. Configuration also included production performance capture to align shop-floor counts with operational reporting and to feed consolidated operational data into corporate financial reporting. Baker Tilly Advisory Group acted as the system integrator for the rollout, executing deployments across AAM plants in the United States and coordinating data consolidation for corporate reporting. Governance changes established traceability controls, quality compliance workflows, and process routing so shop-floor events became part of centralized reporting and audit trails. The initiative produced explicit outcomes of a 5–10% improvement in inventory turns, an approximately 5% increase in manufacturing output, and stronger traceability and compliance across plants. By centralizing Inventory Management with Plex ERP - Inventory Management, American Axle & Manufacturing connected shop-floor controls to finance and quality functions to standardize operational reporting. | |
