Located in Barrie, Ontario, Canada, Prodomax Automation, Inc.,employs over 200 employees and operates from two state-of-the-art manufacturingfacilities totaling 150,000 square feet.Prodomax provides automated manufacturingsolutions for assembly, welding, machining, laser, and material handlingapplications. Providing more than just machines, Prodomax offers total projectmanagement, engineering, manufacturing, installation, equipment start-up, andcontinuous service for all manufacturing processes.
According to Bob Steppe, vice president of operations, Prodomax believes insupporting its customers by continually investing in new technologies andmanufacturing capabilities aimed at reducing costs and ultimately improving eachclientÂ's automation system.
Striving to reduce delivery time and costs, Steppe recognized that ProdomaxÂ'sexisting information systems were a limiting factor.  We suffer from the classic islands of informationÂ' problems such as duplicate data entry, errors, late andpartial information, he said.  We spend far too much time chasing and validatingdata instead of making decisions based on accurate information.Â
To integrate all areas of the business, Prodomax recently purchased a 50-userEncompix ERP system to replace a series of software packages and homegrown systems.
Steppe explained the reasons why Prodomax selected Encompix:  The Encompix systemseemed to be designed with us in mind. A perfect hand-in-glove fit to match ouroperations, such that we wonÂ't have to change our business processes to use thesoftware. Because it is so tailored to the way we do business, there arenÂ't a lot ofthe  bells and whistlesÂ' that you find in some of the more generic ERP packages thatultimately just confuse the user. We want a system that is easy to use and meets ourrequirements, and thatÂ's what Encompix offers.Â
