Time Manufacturing significantly improved production performance by modernizing supplier collaboration. Managing thousands of purchased parts through emails and spreadsheets had led to unreliable supplier data, poor demand visibility, and reactive production planning. Buyers spent excessive time chasing confirmations, while MRP outputs could not be trusted. By adopting SourceDay’s real-time purchase order collaboration platform integrated with Epicor ERP, Time Manufacturing strengthened communication with suppliers, improved demand visibility, and increased active supplier participation. As a result, production attainment rose from 85 percent to 98 percent, planning became more proactive, and procurement teams spent less time managing updates and more time on strategic planning.
