The old process was creating
enormous ho-ho-hold ups.
Shipment errors lead to a
very upset Santa Claus.
Heading Towards a Very Blue Christmas
Jack F. Rost knew Silver Bell MFG needed to make changes. After
attending a Santa supplier conference and reading “How Plex Saved
Christmas”, he was convinced an ERP solution could help.

6. Transforming IT
The IT staff used to always be running around putting out fires. Quite literally because their
servers ran on actual coal. When a server would go down so would the business.

7. Now the team is proactively solving problems before they became critical while
implementing the latest in magical technologies...like Kanban for their Tannenbaum line.
Transforming IT

With real time data Silver Bell MFG is now identifying
trends and planning for the future.
Santa sees you when you’re sleeping
and knows when you’re awake. With
the Plex Manufacturing Cloud, we can
share our data with our customers,
including Santa, so he always know
where we are in the manufacturing
and shipping process.

By implementing Plex, Silver
Bell MFG was able to
transform business
operations and deliver all
orders to Santa on time
and on budget.
